That’s pretty neat!

But.. it reminded me of something that has always puzzled me.
WHY do people put a bow on a baby’s head like that?

Because a some people frown on leather collars and
spikes?

I wish I knew - I am amazed that babies don’t try to take them off. More proof of girlie girls liking girlie girl thangs?

Good question. LOL. I always assumed it was done by parents with a bald baby who wanted to distinguish a baby girl from a baby boy.

It was the thing to do if you had a girl and she still had no hair.

We did this when it was okay to tell people that your child was a girl.

Because it's the preferred method of restricting the blood flow to the brain and gives them a head start in the DNC.

In our daughters case, it was because she was bald as a billiard ball until she was 2. I just helped people avoid asking old our son was, although he/she was dressed in frilly pink outfits. The bow seemed to give a better clue.

My wife stuck it on with corn syrup. I thought the stable gun would hold it better but got that frown that says, “Don’t do it.”

Because no one wants to use a nail gun, and it makes the baby more adorable to mom and dad.

So the baby won't choose it's own gender.
