German dad encourages 5 year old cross dressing son

The same reason that naming your 5 year old kid "Adolf Hitler" and letting him go to school dressed up in a Nazi uniform is child abuse.

 

Oh, so how are they the same?

Please be explicit.

 

They were/are in a custody battle over a name. But cross dressing a 5 year old is ok???

 

Being dressed as a Nazi as a kid would be less humiliating and psychologically abusive, so they aren't really the same. Both are psychologically abusive and encourage low self-esteem and healthy since of identity, as well as potential bullying and social isolation, which would lead to even more problems later in life.

On a side note, at 5 years old even an actual 5 year old girl would be too young to wear makeup and nail polish. Funny thing is that many liberals claim beauty pageants for little girls are abusive, yet they don't have a problem with a parent putting makeup and dressing up their kid as long as it's a boy - funny how their minds work.

 

I wonder if New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie intervened to have all the children including a newborn removed entirely from the family and into the Division of Youth and Family Services ... you think this is ok ?


Adolf Hitler Campbell Custody Battle: Parents Will Not Get Kids Back After Nazi Naming

http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2012/...y-battle-nazi-names-new-jersey_n_1561046.html

A New Jersey Superior Court judge ruled Thursday that a couple would not regain custody of their four children, three of whom are named in honor of prominent Nazi historical figures.

Heath and Deborah Campbell, self-proclaimed Nazis from Holland Township, N.J., first made headlines in January 2009, when a store refused to decorate a birthday cake for their oldest child, Adolf Hitler Campbell, now 6.

Shortly after the incident, Adolf and his siblings, JoyceLynn Aryan Nation, now 5, and Honszlynn Hinler Jeanne, now 6, were taken into state custody, the Associated Press reported.

Child welfare officials also took custody of the Campbells' youngest child, Hons, hours after his birth in November 2011.

 

Not sure if this is a good idea or not. This behavior will have the child ostracized at school but on the other hand the son loves wearing dresses (which is fine) Just maybe best for the father to try to stop such behavior at such a young age, young kids are mean and this child could become a social outcast at a young age at school (which could have many negative effects for the child) While the child is free to wear the dress I am not sure such a line of support is the best in the long run for the child

 

Why is this any of your business? Who made you the moral police?

 

Absurd

Absurd with pure speculation.

Absurd with sick reference to pedophilia.

 

I bet you are A-ok with this thou:

Sure, however they should at all times...be Men.

Leave the dresses and nail polish to the Women. A real role model would have cleared up this confusion for the 5 year old boy.

 

yep, everything in life fits nicely into a black and white box right?

 

LOL...Obvious gender roles are clearly a statement about "everything"...

Not surprised you are on this fathers side.

Would you also support him if the son wanted to be a dog and felt comfortable on a leash and collar? Afterall, if you are ok with him being something he is not...you have no right to limit it to just the things you approve of. Lets just indulge this foolishness as far as it wants to go right?

"Human being" afterall, is simply a social construct.

 

So allowing their boy to dress as a girl is the same as a beauty pageant that sexualizes little girls?

You don't see how the two are not similar do you?

 

Aside from arbitrary social constructs, why are dresses for women and jeans for boys?

 

Who said Jeans are for boys????

This is what you Libs do to try and prop up the ridiculous. just add things on so it looks as ridiculous in print as your ideas.

 

It's entirely normal for young children, without any encouragement, to wear clothing of the opposite sex. Believe it or not but the clothing the different sexes wear is not encoded within our DNA. Go back not that far in history and it was quite common for men to wear makeup and wear clothing that today we would consider to be feminine but back then was considered quite manly.

 

Can you please answer the question.

What argument do you have other than arbitrary social constructs?

 

Sure, Kids will be kids.

Whats wrong about this story is the Dad not cluing the boy in, and going even further.....using his boy as an excuse for his want to wear dresses.

 

Why would I need any other? Tell me why I would need something else? Men and Women, and the differences between them do exist no matter how hard you try and pretend they do not.

Women wear dresses, Men do not.

While we are at it, explain to me how this decision is the kids to make....yet at other times a Minor cannot make decisions. Honestly Libs, pick a side and run with it.

 

Well, for one thing, a 5-year-old crossdresser is going to be mercilessly bullied. For another thing, I know 5 year olds. The idea to cross-dress or to think of themselves as the opposite sex is not normal to 5-year-old children who have very little idea what gender and sexuality mean. So yeah, the man is screwing up his kid in the name of political correctness. But why worry about obvious child abuse when it's politically correct child abuse?

 

So you are using societal constructs as your argument?

I suppose you have realized those are totally arbitrary?

 

It's child abuse.

 

I learned awhile ago, that the best teacher in life, won't be the one who says what you can or can't do, but the one that says you can try. The father supports the kid, let him. Let the kid learn for himself.

 

I could pull some studies up on gender identity disorder, but you wont listen, so I wont bother.

You would rather remain willfully ignorant on the subject and bring in red herrings like a boy wanting to be a dog.

 

The word transvestite refers to an individual, usually a biological male, who dresses in the opposite gender’s clothing for sexual or emotional pleasure. These people are usually heterosexual, do not wear the opposite gender’s clothing all the time, and usually do not view themselves as members of the opposite gender. Another word for transvestite is crossdresser.
