Raising a genderless child

[Deleted]

So a growing trend is parents raising children as gender nuetral allowing their child to dress how they like, refer to themselves as whatever etc. Do you believe this could be psychologically harmful or beneficial?

How do they not have a gender? Do they not have a penis or vagina?

No sane person would just leave it to a growing human being to figure out for themselves what gender they are, this reminds me of that story where some lesbian couple adopted a boy and basically dressed him in pink and told him he was transgender for his entire life, its basically abuse.

Its child abuse.

The moonbat parents should be arrested.

You raise your child to best fit into society you don't warp it mind so that its a cast out.

People can choose to be cast outs on their own when they're ready.

Kids going to grow up wondering "wtf happened" because he/she/IT didn't make their own choices.

Terrible idea. You can change labels for yourself, but you can't expect everyone around you to do the same in reference to you

This stupid shit is not a "growing trend".

Ultimately raising a genderless kid is you pushing your political ideology onto the kid.
Let the kids figure it out themself when they are old enough.

Sex = parts. Gender is the role they take in society.

the whole topic is confusing because people are reassigning (no pun intended) the meaning of the word "gender". It used to mean sex, but now it means your social and cultural expectations and preferences.

ie; blue and pink are "gender" colors, not sex colors.

Gender is influenced by those parts. It does not exist in a purely environmental vacuum.

Well as a grim positive at least the far left will die out after a generation.

I can't imagine many of them breed and those that do fuck with their child so much they have a near zero chance of becoming healthy adults.

are we psychologists or psychoanalysts suddenly?

Lacan says denying reality is ill. so it definitely isnt healthy.

Watch the original Dragonball series, Goku is pretty much the only example of a "genderless child".

Completely irresponsible, that's your child, don't fuck up their life because you couldn't keep your ideology in check.

What is next? xD Poking their eyes out to raise them blind?

I would agree. But, it isn't determined, and social role can change over one's lifetime.

I think an ideology is a nice thing to do but that is doing a social experiment on a child, and isn't it generally frowned upon to perform experiments on humans whom cannot consent?
