151 Sparkly Boys and Tough Girls: Raising Children Outside of the Gender Binary
Feminism, Sex, and Gender•Capitol B• Sunday, 1:00-2:15 p.m.
Come discuss the difficulty and rewards of raising kids outside a strict binary gender system. As a parent, how do you cope with the terror that your five-year-old son will get beat up or harassed for wearing his sparkly gold spagetti-strap top? How do you steer your daughter away from Barbie and where can you find cute jammies that don't have either Spiderman or Disney Princesses on them?
