Regardless of what this boy wants to wear he still has to learn that there are rules in some places and his mother, instead of running to the papers should be sitting him down and explaining to him that a kids club is maybe not the right setting to be wearing dress up clothes. He wouldn't turn up at the school he attends wearing this stuff so why should the kids club be any different? and if the child really does want to wear dresses why not proper clothing?

As for the kids club well the spokesperson has said they have been asked to wear clothing of the gender stated on his registration form, which states male.

I don't see a problem with them enforcing that.

I don't agree with dress codes anytime, anywhere though so I'm not even going to be able to agree with that. But then I'm a liberal so

So you think people should be able to wear dress up clothes when ever and where ever?

Just out of curiosity then, would you be fine with going to your doctors and he or she was sitting wearing a pink tutu and ballet slippers?

Yes, clothes are clothes, artificial creations and have no bearing whatsoever on a person. I literally couldn't care any less about what people wear

And absolutely, I'm there to get medical treatment and advice not admire her clothes/dress sense I genuinely don't get why people care, people can still do jobs competently or act like normal human beings wearing whatever clothes they want

I disagree Jack, a dress up costume is not normal clothing.

Dress up clothing is not suitable day to day in a professional setting either.

There is no arguments, people are discussing.

You could take your GP seriously if he sat there dressed as Snow White?

As a matter of interest what would you wear to an important job interview?
