Raising a 'Gender-Creative' Child

Description:

Alex Morris, contributing editor at New York Magazine and Rolling Stone, talks about her reporting which looks at parents trying to raise their children without assigning a gender based on sex, following their kids' leads when they begin to express one gender over another, and takes calls from listeners.

The way parents have raised kids with + without gender has evolved throughout time -- the Victorians thought putting any kind of gender on a baby was horrifying -- they would have thought it was "sexualizing a baby," says @AlexMorrisNY.

@AlexMorrisNY says these kids *will* gender identify at a very young age (probably by pre-school), and no one is going to stop them from doing this.
