I was having a chat with DD (12) last night and she was telling me how her dad's gf calls her son the female version of his name to tease him, calls him a fairy, and says he does x "like a girl."
Cue a conversation about how "like a girl" is offensive as it makes out that girls are somehow lesser and that is not the case along with how damaging that kind of talk is. How fairy is often a homosexual slur and that this is not an acceptable way to treat anyone let alone a 7 year old boy.
Ffs, what kind of parent does that?
