Genderfucking in Children

According to Susan Witt's recent study parents are typically the first people a child relates to and because of the intensity of that relationship it is from parents that children come to their first conclusions about being male or female. Through this social interaction the parents give children gender specific clothing, toys, and expectations. There are often many subtle messages about what is acceptable or not regarding gender. Studies have shown that children that grow up with more androgynous gendered parents are more focused on achievements and typically have a better sense of self. According to a recent article by Kerry Robinson parents have no problem loving their children but in cases of gender nonconformity, when a child exhibits gender performances that are atypical of their prescribed gender role that a parental figure may respond with hostility. According to the Official Journal of American Academy of Pediatrics, people who do not conform to the gender binary are often subject to more abuse from society within the family and their community. These types of abuse range from physical, sexual, mental and emotional, and are not associated with homosexuality alone.
