"I had the same thing with my son and pink sneakers. The day another boy asked him why his shoes were pink my heart stopped. He just shrugged, said “Because I love them” and the other kid was totally cool with it and they carried on playing and I realized kids are not the problem."

"My mum got dresses for me as a kid, I didn’t ask her for them… she later told me she got the dress before I was born because she thought I’ll turn out to be a girl and when I came out a boy she was a bit disappointed and did not want to give the dress she got out."

@houseofnkosi said:

"Rather than us men being worried about a boy who asked for a dress, let us worry about the sons that are raised to embrace their masculinity and end up rap*ing and abusing women. We are worked out about their item of clothing, the focus should be the character our sons become."

@AdvocateMpohla said:

"Out of interest what happens when he wants ice-cream for breakfast, lunch and dinner? or wants jump from the 5th floor etc. Point is kids will always ask for stuff sense or senseless it's our duty as parents to protect them from their own choices until they old enough to understand."
