This is why CNN and all the other 24-hour news channels suck. More and more sensationalism than anything else. 5/24/2011 11:56:02 PM |

I shit you not. I came into this thread and Mr. Wulf in the top left hand of the screen turned into Bob Marley. I was all like GTFO OF MY WOLF WEB YOU NIG.
But then I realized he was a cool nig so I relaxed and we smoked some trees and rejoiced. 5/25/2011 6:40:01 AM |

I see letting your child be who your child is going to be, but biology is not debatable. He's either a boy or a girl (except in rare cases that don't seem to apply here) no matter what activities he might choose. If they were sincere in their actions this would be a private matter; not something you see on the news. These people just want attention.

This is a more indepth write up

God damn hippies
Quote : | "Each week the woman asks the same question about the baby with the squishy cheeks and feathery blond hair.
Witterick smiles, opens her arms wide, comments on the sunny spring day, and keeps walking.
She’s used to it. The neighbours know Witterick and her husband, David Stocker, are raising a genderless baby. But they don’t pretend to understand it.
While there’s nothing ambiguous about Storm’s genitalia, they aren’t telling anyone whether their third child is a boy or a girl." |
Quote : | "When Storm was born, the couple sent an email to friends and family: “We've decided not to share Storm's sex for now — a tribute to freedom and choice in place of limitation, a stand up to what the world could become in Storm's lifetime (a more progressive place? ...).”" |
Quote : | "Jazz and Kio have picked out their own clothes in the boys and girls sections of stores since they were 18 months old. Just this week, Jazz unearthed a pink dress at Value Village, which he loves because it “really poofs out at the bottom. It feels so nice.” The boys decide whether to cut their hair or let it grow." |
Quote : | "Witterick practices unschooling, an offshoot of home-schooling centred on the belief that learning should be driven by a child’s curiosity. There are no report cards, no textbooks and no tests. For unschoolers, learning is about exploring and asking questions, “not something that happens by rote from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. weekdays in a building with a group of same-age people, planned, implemented and assessed by someone else,” says Witterick. The fringe movement is growing. An unschooling conference in Toronto drew dozens of families last fall." |
Quote : | "Jazz — soft-spoken, with a slight frame and curious brown eyes — keeps his hair long, preferring to wear it in three braids, two in the front and one in the back, even though both his parents have close-cropped hair. His favourite colour is pink, although his parents don’t own a piece of pink clothing between them. He loves to paint his fingernails and wears a sparkly pink stud in one ear, despite the fact his parents wear no nail polish or jewelry.
Kio keeps his curly blond hair just below his chin. The 2-year-old loves purple, although he’s happiest in any kind of pyjama pants.
“As a result, Jazz and now Kio are almost exclusively assumed to be girls,” says Stocker, adding he and Witterick don’t out them. It’s the boys’ choice whether they want to offer a correction.
On a recent trip to High Park, Jazz, wearing pink shorts, patterned pink socks and brightly coloured elastics on his braids, runs and skips across the street.
“That’s a princess!” says a smiling crossing guard, ushering the little boy along. “And that’s a princess, too,” she says again, pointing at Kio with her big red sign." |

This is awesome in my opinion. If i had a kid i would probably just say this so people would think i'm weird and leave me the fuck alone. Everyone has kids go bother someone else's. I don't want your germs around my infant

Snewf All American 63368 Posts user info edit post |
so what if these people name their kids like compact cars?
so what if they let their boys wear braids?
do you think that if these kids mince around and are allowed to express their gender in unsanctioned ways without getting fagbashed by the world it will make YOU less of a man?
grow some fucking nads, be a man and worry about your own life you bunch of clucking hens
