I don't see what the big deal is if Shiloh how Shiloh dresses. Her parents are letting her express herself. She is a CHILD - doesn't matter if she is male or female. When she is an adult, she will most likely have to conform to society's idea of what a male/female should look like, do, say, etc. I think her parents should be commended for NOT forcing their child to dress in a certain manner just to appease society. I have seen Shiloh's brothers with painted fingernails...to me it's the same thing. Letting a child be a child.<br />As far as the boys swimsuit goes - I don't see an issue with that either. She is 5 - so what if she is shirtless in their own PRIVATE backyard? Looking at a shirtless 5 year old swimming and sexualizing that child for a body part that she doesn't even have yet is pointless. When Natalie was 4 1/2, we were on vacation and the hotel pool rules stated that anyone under the age of 5 had to wear a swim diaper in the pool. We had to go buy some for Natalie, and when we put it on, her bathingsuit didn't fit over it. So guess what? We took her swimming in the swim diaper without a shirt on. No big deal. Most people I know don't look at a shirtless little girl and see anything other than a child. And....from the time she was 8 until about 11 Natalie's bathing suit of choice was boys swim trunks and a rash guard shirt. <br />Just my opinion, though. Funny thing is that I see a lot of people on the internet commenting on Shiloh's attire and haircut - but no one is mentioning the fact that Vivienne is wearing bright red lipstick. Why???? Because Viv is a little girl who LOOKS like a little girl so it's o.k. for her to wear lipstick. But it's not o.k. for Shiloh to wear boys clothing becuause she's a little girl????Rebecca M.https://www.blogger.com/profile/12990424837889497569noreply@blogger.com
