I don't see any problem with this at all because she's essentially allowing her child to choose how they identify through options, as opposed to 'I'm going to buy this baby girl a pink top because we all know pink equals girl', or 'I'm going to buy this baby boy a football because we all know boys want to grow up to be footballers when they're older', which still plagues our culture and society today.

I think a lot of people presume 'genderless' or 'gender-neutral' parenting means children won't be able to associate with either gender whatsoever, but I think it's just a way of saying 'I'm going to let my child be whoever they want to be'. Mary Portas did the same thing, essentially what she did was give her child options in terms of being able to play with things (or express themselves in a way) that is typically 'girly' or 'boyish'. What she found out was that her male child ended up hating dolls and wanting play with trucks, and that was that. It's not really a big deal.
