I have seen it all..... J. Crew in under fire after an email mailer to customers, that featured the chain's president and creative director, Jenna Lyons and her son Beckett, five, with his toenails painted pink. Is she pushing the gender identity issue with this child? I would be out of my mind to have my sons were pink nail polish at any age.
The mother-of-one is seen with a bottle of neon pink nail polish, painting her son's toenails. The headline reads: 'Saturday with Jenna... See how she and son Beckett go off duty in style.'
Below the picture is a quote from Ms Lyons which reads: 'Lucky for me, I ended up with a boy whose favorite color is pink. Toenail painting is way more fun in neon.'
But a number of psychiatrists have slammed the ad, claiming that promotion of such an image 'celebrates transgendered identity'.
Psychiatrist Dr. Keith Ablow told Fox News: 'This is a dramatic example of the way that our culture is being encouraged to abandon all trappings of gender identity.
Media commentator Erin Brown of the Media Research Center also had strong views, calling it 'blatant propaganda celebrating transgendered children. Source
Why can't we just let kids be kids? Little boys don't wear pink nail polish, period. Kids don't need to be taught gender-bending issues period. No wonder some kids grow up confused about who they really are. What does a five year old know about being transgendered? Let kids be kids.
