#I hope so so bad that when she gets older they won't start the amatonormativity comments nor the way too high focus on how she looks

Having a cousin with a newborn child really makes you realize how out of touch you are with societal expectations
#me not actually that convinced that we live in a society where gender stereotypes are really *that* relevant to (at least) everyday life#vs me reading with my own two eyes the kind of comments some relatives make about this baby#like! leave her be!! She is not 'already acting like a diva' that's a baby having fun figuring out their whole range of motions!!#beginning to be sincerely grateful to my own upbringing#I hope so so bad that when she gets older they won't start the amatonormativity comments nor the way too high focus on how she looks#but despite it all I've never actually been that much in contact with an actual growing baby so that's going to be a fascinating experience#(also it's very fun and sweet to hear my mum's comments on the situations as they arise because she's pretty rational and kind hearted)#(my dad's too actually but he's more on the affections side until he can see the rationality coming to form in the baby's head#at that point he can switch it up pretty fast between being incredibly grounded and groundlessly affectionate)#but the common thing they have is that neither of them comments on a baby as anything else than an actual baby#they don't really seem to fall for gender stereotypes while talking about them (e.g. 'he's such a ladies man' 'she's such a diva already')#which I thought to be like. a standard reaction. but apparently not really??#fascinating#my post#anyway back to studying
