This seems a bit of a social experiment.

Seems a bit unfair on the child.

Isn't every action taken by a parent a 'bit of a social experiment'?

Unfair? How?

By not forcing it to wear pink and lavender fru-fru dresses and "act like a lady" if it's a girl?

By not forcing it to wear GI Joe slaughter outfits and allow him to be unruly because "boys will be boys" (puke). ???


By allowing it to CHOOSE what it likes as it gets older rather than TELLING it what it MUST be and how it must dress and act depending on it's sex????
Unfair????

Honestly. Who cares what gender you are when you're a kid? How should little girls be treated that is different from little boys? Are they smarter? Are they stupider? Are they delicate flowers? Or is this a great opportunity to start up a generation that really truly feels and believes in equality?

Maybe the parents are libertarians and just plan on letting the free market decide the gender of their child...

How these parents decide to raise their child is no more your business, OP, than parents who decide to raise their child with LIBERAL doses of corporal punishment or LIBERAL doses of religious doctrine.

Butt out.
