<strong>THE</strong> PROBLEM: GENDER-NEUTRAL PARENTING IS AN ILLUSION 48
From a very young age, our children are trapped in boxes. IF WE THINK WE RAISE OUR GIRLS AND BOYS EQUAL, WE NEED A REALITY CHECK. — Laura Bates, founder of Everyday Sexism Starting with children's clothes. Some examples: Hipercor Spain launched baby clothes saying: Smart like Daddy, Cute like Mummy. Avenger’s T-shirts slogans: Be a hero/I need a hero. And Gap had to withdraw a campaign where the girl was labeled the social butterfly next to a boy called the little scholar. But it’s not only about the messages. Our clothes are gendered and favor autonomy or dependence. Boys’ clothes are supposed to be comfortable while girls’ clothes ought to be pretty. Girls’ clothes hinder movement and exploration (dresses or skirts). Adults tend to tell girls to respect their clothes, e.g. "eat properly," "don't climb trees." Boys' clothing is easier for boys to take on and off, like Velcro, while girls clothing requires help, like laces and delicate outfits. On special school days, girls are encouraged to stick to princess outfits while boys have more choices. Girls are reminded by schools that they are not allowed to wear what they want. Frequently, female students are told to "dress for their bodies.” Wearing shorts and a tank top does not impede upon a female student's ability to learn, nor should it impede upon the ability of a teacher to teach. This strict dress code perpetuates rape culture by suggesting to girls that their way of
