Ta for the assumptions. My children are perfectly well-socialised. And it's the internet and you'll probably just go "Of course you think so, since they are your special snowflakes", so I'm not all that interested in arguing the point. There's no denying they get the constant message that girls are this way and boys are that way* and a hundred other insidious and harmful ideas, and if I can reduce that number until they develop the capacity to look at things critically, why not? My naturally inclined to be short-and-dumpy daughter recently turned five. She already has the relatives she takes after bemoaning their figures and normalising dieting and food guilt. She has school teaching an approach to nutrition that is really fricking flawed. If I have two books in my hand and one of them shows a gorilla lamenting that she will never be loved because she's fat (seriously), I'm going to buy the other one instead.


*On that note, the fact that Clara's "shoot and cry about it later" comment was supposed to be a JOKE is about a hundred times worse than Vastra. Because I see FIVE YEAR OLDS get that message in all seriousness, from the people that are supposed to nurture them. Men don't cry, men don't feel, grow up you pansy. They aren't going to pick up the subtle nuances of that scene, but they are going to get the idea that being "weak" was something to laugh at.
