Unleashed: Why can't boys wear pink? - 0 views

  • It's a precious thing, this masculinity. It seems to be in danger at any moment of disappearing, so concerned adults seem to insist in little boys performing a certain kind of masculinity, restricting them from the ethereal world of the fairy, which, incidentally, was originally an imaginary world where these creatures were gender-neutral. We know deep at the heart of Mina's grandmother's and paediatrician's concerns about the twins is that they may grow up to be, God forbid, gay.
