J. Crew Plants the Seeds for Gender Identity (Mom paints son's toenails pink)
FoxNews.com ^ | April 11, 2011 | Dr. Keith Ablow

Posted on 04/11/2011 1:55:34 PM PDT by inflorida

A recent feature in J. Crew's online catalogue portrays designer Jenna Lyons painting her son Beckett’s toe nails hot pink. The quote accompanying the image reads, “Lucky for me, I ended up with a boy whose favorite color is pink. Toenail painting is way more fun in neon.”

Yeah, well, it may be fun and games now, Jenna, but at least put some money aside for psychotherapy for the kid—and maybe a little for others who’ll be affected by your “innocent” pleasure.

This is a dramatic example of the way that our culture is being encouraged to abandon all trappings of gender identity—homogenizing males and females when the outcome of such “psychological sterilization” [my word choice] is not known.

In our technology-driven world—fueled by Facebook, split-second Prozac prescriptions and lots of other assaults on genuine emotion and genuine relationships and actual consequences for behavior—almost nothing is now honored as real and true.

Increasingly, this includes the truth that it is unwise to dress little girls like miniature adults (in halter tops and shorts emblazoned with PINK across the bottoms) and that it is unwise to encourage little boys to playact like little girls.

If you have no problem with the J. Crew ad, how about one in which a little boy models a sundress? What could possibly be the problem with that?

C’mon. Painting a 3 year old boy’s toenails isn’t going to turn him into a tranny. Get real. I say this from personal experience. I remember my aunt painting my toenails when I was about that age for a joke. I grew up fanatically heterosexual.

Beckett might just want to get use to being called: 'Becky'

Why would Foxnews.com run Free Advertising for J. Crew?

I have pics of my very all-boy son wearing his sister’s pink velveteen ballerina leotard and another of him crawling around in a diaper and a tutu. Poor kid. He was raised watching Barbie movies but you’d never know it now.

“I remember my aunt painting my toenails when I was about that age for a joke. I grew up fanatically heterosexual.”

You really need to read the entire article before posting such namby pamby social liberal metrosexual nonsense!

According to the article, and free J. Crew advertising, the fact that your aunt painted your toenails not only impacted your life in an extremely negative manner, it also had dire consequences for millions of others who were affected by your “innocent” pleasure.

“Jenna, but at least put some money aside for psychotherapy for the kid—and maybe a little for others who’ll be affected by your “innocent” pleasure.”

Hey—survival of the fittest. These Libs will turn their boys into little gender-confused pantywaists who don’t have the motivation to fight for themselves or do much in life. They won’t be around for long.

That is really, really disgusting. I hope a lot of people see the kid with long hair and pink nails and remark, “What a cute little GIRL.” How much you all want to bet there is no on-site DADDY for that poor kid!

So because my aunt painted my toenails, 10 year old girls in Myanmar have to work 16 hours a day in sweatshops, baby seals are clubbed to death by the millions, and thousands of Africans die just to bring one single blood diamond to market for De Beers?

I’m stuned.

Homosexuality is no longer considered a disorder that would qualify for psychotherapy. It was declassified by the American Psychiatric Association in l973.

The kid’s mother, Jenna Lyons earns $4,266,703.00 per year.

With that kind of mama’s bankroll, the kid can write any ticket he wants in this world.

Not only that, but because I read about your account of your aunt painting your nails, my great, great grandson is at great risk of being a bit light in the loafers.

“She ended up with a homo for a son.”

If my mom pulled down 4.3 million dollars a year, when I was three, she could have pained my toenails any color she wanted.
