Several weeks ago, I published a post about a colleague of mine who got “caught” by his dad in full femboy gear. This is how it’s going.
Not long ago, I went to my son’s daycare and came across a boy in a dress and had a great conversation with his mom.
A lot of people working in a tech-field question gender norms. Let’s find out how many readers of this blog work in that field.

This is an interesting article about society’s double standard of it being ok for girls to dress in “boy’s” clothing, but it still being weird for boys to dress in “girl’s” clothing.
