In a child this young, IMO,........YES!
Many young children go through phases like this.
Good grief!
How many little girls are "tom-boyish" at that age and older?
How many little girls like playing with traditional boy toys?
How many mothers go through resistance and drama to get their little girls in a dress at that age and older?
How many little girls are NOT "prissy" at that age?
Almost all of this can apply to my own childhood; but I'm still a heterosexual Black woman today and my mother didn't need to write a BOOK about how I wouldn't wear a dress or played like a boy with my older brothers!
Yeah that book is out there....
I've seen boys in the dress-up area in the pre-school classrooms dress up in girl's dresses and what-not...
I'll admit it bothers me a little....but I just remember they are just kids,
but still if I had a son I don't think I would be too thrilled if I saw him dressing up as a girl
