Do you think this will mentally scar him?

Remind me to email you a picture I have of Bug.

I think it may save Braden’s manhood.

Or at least give you a giggle.

Smooches love. Been thinking of you lots.

“Where penises grow.”

*snort*

I doubt any permanent scarring will result. If so, my own kids are doomed. (Though mostly I blog about my own misadventures, not theirs. But trust me, the vicarious embarrassment would be enough.)

Victoria Marinelli’s last blog post..Fragments from 2008-04-07

i only think you’re at risk of scarring him if you include that photo in his baby book along with the insert for high school musical. cuz that outfit and the emo bang sweep is zach + gabby {for eva}.

i remember one time when isobel was wearing a purple flowered dress, tights, pink shoes and have her bangs pinned back with heart shaped barrettes and we were waiting in the line-up at the bank. and the man ahead of us kinda, poked her a bit and tried to chat with/at her, and then gave me the sage advice to stop putting my little guy in purple or else people would start thinking he was a girl.

people are ‘tards.

Oh yeah, you scarred him. I’m gonna have to remember the penis line too. Clicked over from Twitter. Glad I did.

Well yes, okay, we all know Braden is a boy!
But the pink outfit , withe the little pink flowers …
I don’t know? LOL!!!!

Jientje’s last blog post..Wordless Wednesday Smelly Boots?

It wont’ scar him…until you show it to him in a fit of anger when he’s twelve…*lol*

But seriously, I get that all the time. When DC was a baby I always got “Oh, she’s adorable.” I’d smile and say “Thank you, HE’s happy to hear that.” And in return I’d get my (non)favorite line every..”Really? Oh, he’s too cute to be a boy!” Um, HUH?

And everyone thinks K is a boy…so it goes both ways. That’s why I NEVER assume.

if you’d his hair in ponytails or pigtails – quite possibly it’d scar him. although the flowery shirt just might push him *close* to – but not off – the ledge. haha!

happy ww. ?

Bows in his hair together with that outfit could jolly well gain you a bribe-shot of him

napaboaniya’s last blog post..Wordless Wednesday #16

I got that a lot with my son too. I would take him out in his pram wearing a blue, very definitely styled, boy’s outfit, with a bib that said “I am a BOY” and people would say ‘oh isn’t she gorgeous”. Their assumptions were usually based purely on the length and thickness of his eyelashes. Stoopid peeple.

To be honest, I wouldn’t know. But I’m horrible at it anyway. I’m not stupid enough to assign a gender to anybody’s kid unless I am SURE. Meaning: I would have just said, “that’s a cute shirt!”

That said, my son painted his OWN fingernails pink once when I wasn’t looking.

I have pictures. That might scar him too. But he was so proud of himself!

kspin’s last blog post..Peacocks & Piglets

He he he – when my little boy wears his hand-me-down ‘girly hat’ as we affectionately call it I expect people to think he is a girl, but when he wears his ‘I LOVE TOOLS’ shirt and people still assume I have three girls I begin to wonder about their sanity!

Oh and I so there with you on ‘less words wednesday’! Love it!

“I love his penis.” Bahahaha!
I once had my infant girl dressed in pink eyelet, wearing a headband with a flower on it, and our idiot neighbor called her a boy.
Some people are just ignorant.

Yep he’s scarred, but at least you don’t have a picture of him dancing while wearing his cousin’s princess dress. My poor baby how I feel for him when he starts dating!

Veronica’s last blog post..Letters…

A hundred years ago, boys wore dresses until they were out of diapers (easier to get to the diaper to change it). I have pictures of some of my uncles in long white dresses.

And maybe it’s because I already know he’s a boy, but his face looks like that of a boy to me, even when he’s dressed in pink.

Donna W’s last blog post..This kid is cute

This is great!

I love (Less Words) Wednesdays – and that line about his penis? Priceless!

daysgoby’s last blog post..girl trouble

He IS a very pretty little boy, beautiful actually! It must be those lashes and big blue eyes! My little girl gets mistaken for a boy all of the time. She could be wearing a pink shirt with pink shoes and people are like: “What’s his name?” or “He’s so cute!” I think I’m going to have to take your “Less Words Wednesdays,” I can’t make them wordless either!

AnnD’s last blog post..Perfect timing?

I get the opposite…even if she’s wearing that flowery shirt on top. “Hey buddy, how’s it going?” I respond, “Tell them you’re a girl!”

Krystyn’s last blog post..Tuesday Toddler Tales-Prayers

happy ww

No, I don’t think you’ve scarred him – yet. It’s when he’s 10 and starts reading back through this blog that his self-image may be in jeopardy. And, of course, he may pull a Peter and just deny your existence when he’s about 15 and starts to take serious interest in girls.

Ashley’s last blog post..How’s this for frugal?

When my daughter was around 6 months old I was in the grocery store with her and my sister. Both my sis and my girl were as pale white as possible (very fair skin) and my daughter had these great big blue eyes (and no hair). A very drunk lady behind us tapped me on the shoulder and told me I had the most beautiful mexican baby boy she’d ever seen. My daughter was wearing a dress that had big flowers all over it with ruffles and everything. Oh, and pink sandals.

When the lady went on to tell me “he” didn’t look a thing like me, I pointed to my sister and said, “SHE looks like my sister here.”. The lady shook her head in agreement and commented on how my sister was a very pretty Mexican lady. My sister is as blonde, blue-eyed and pale skinned as they come. (just like my daughter) Before we left the store the drunk lady told me that I might not want to put my son in a dress anymore as it could “damage him”.

Yeah buddy.

He’s cute in the pink, btw.

My bald daughter has the same shirt (wal mart I think…) and people would definitely call her a boy, even if she was wearing it…”whats his name?” umm…Danielle Lynn….

p.s. don’t feel bad about your words on Wednesday, I’m always glad to click on your site BECAUSE I know there will be words.

I always said, if I had a boy I’d let his hair grow long…

I love it. I think it’s gorgeous.

To me he still looks like a boy, but a boy from the 60s or 70s, like the Partridge Family. I like that shirt on him!

That happened to me ALL the time with Zack… the blond curly hair, seemed to make everyone think he was a girl – no matter how much blue I put him in! *sigh*

Becky (FrumpMama)’s last blog post..Wordless Wednesday: Quit Pickin’ On Me!

I’m not so good at the wordless part of wordless wednesdays, either. I think he looks very much like a boy! Maybe you should teach him to walk around belching while itching himself, you know, prepare him for life as a man. Haha.

Shannymar’s last blog post..Wordless Wednesday #17-Eternally Yours…

too funny! braden has the ‘supermodel’ look – where men/boys can carry off that fem but boy/men look. he is super cute but you could have fooled me with that first pix. BUT who in the world asked you about ‘HER’ super cute shirt when he is oviously wearing blue??

by the way, i can’t do ‘wordless’ either. mine have minimal words to them too!

mah-meeee’s last blog post..Wordless Wednesday

tee hee… I think he’ll be fine. My best friend and I used to dress up her little brother in girl clothes constantly and he has managed to do just fine (US Air force).
I think he looks like a boy though. He isn’t very girlie looking! But people are just dreadful at that- people are always asking me if my daughter is a boy (even dressed in all pink) and we had someone confuse my oldest son for a girl (he is five) because his hair was on the longer side. Sheesh.

Tara R’s last blog post..Book Review

You crack me up, Lotus, even if you do scar Braden for life (bet he’ll be OK even without therapy).

You also inspire me enough that your name turned up in my post today when I was waxing poetic about spring and sunshine being all up my ass of late.

Perhaps a hair cut might help? Just a suggestion, no pressure, I love his luscious locks too.

HE is so cute..

Taz’s last blog post..24 weeks old

He looks like a boy TO ME, but hey. I used to take my feminine, dainty infant daughters out in pink lacy sleepers and people would be like “How old is your little boy?” Der.

I can see the “MOOOOOMMMMMMM!” when he discovers that picture on the blog someday!

Secret Agent Mama’s last blog post..Project 365 (230abc/365)

Same with my son, when he was younger. We even put him in pigtails and took pictures (hee hee). My sis-in-law used to give him her frilly hat and purse. He also has those looong eyelashes, like his sister.

omg, I SNORTED when I read that line about his penis! My son Nathan is all boy, but he does have longish hair and a somewhat feminine face. When I post his photo on my blog I always get a comment about my “cute daughter”. Fortunately he is quite secure in his adolescent manhood.

Elizabeth’s last blog post..It’s Karma, it’s fate, it’s me going to BlogHer!

It’s hard for me to see him as a girl…even in the pretty top. Noah had an accident at school the other day and came home in brown stretchy flared pants. Hot. I should have taken a picture for future blackmail purposes.

You will be so proud of me. I did a whole post on poop. How does it make you feel that this makes me think of you?? hahaha

Tasina’s last blog post..Not for the queasy

Naah. Just don’t show it to his girlfriends, children, or potential employers. The internet is fine! I’ll have to remember that “where penises grow” line for one of my guys…

Kay’s last blog post..Just a quickie

Ha ha ha! I have been facing this dilemma with James since the day he was born. I just take it as a compliment that they think my child is so beautiful, and sad that our culture has so many gender issues that that person thinks only a girl can be beautiful.

Wait a minute…I mentioned this in one of my posts before…where is it? Oh, here it is:

“I don’t really care if you think my kid looks like a girl. I know, he’s just beautiful! But I do get tired when people correct me on that point, like, really? Are you SURE he’s a boy? Um…yes, I’m reasonably certain that’s not a cancerous growth that I see when I change his diaper there. Thanks for reminding me for the thousandth time this year that if we don’t give my son a buzz cut and trim his eyelashes by his second birthday, he’ll be socially ostracized for forever and become a freak of nature because HE’S NOT A MANLY ONE YEAR OLD! Seriously, stop with the girl thing. It’s actually none of your business anyway.”

I hope it’s not weird to quote myself, it’s just that this whole boy-girl issue gets SO RIDICULOUS! Your baby is beautiful. And if he’s not the epitome of manly manhood….I can promise you that I for one am glad of it. He’s only a baby!!

And I don’t think THIS is the picture that will haunt him when he hits the “everything remotely related to my parents or my childhood embarrasses me” teenage years. The butt pics, however…he might kill you for. Just sayin’.

SusanB’s last blog post..A Good Day
