Oh, and the official reason was "I'm tired of people thinking she's a boy."
I think that's dumber than if she just said she wanted to do it.

i think that's a great reason, personally. it makes your daughter feel like [censored] when someone thinks she's a boy, and she's not going to say "hey, can i get some earrings so people can tell i'm a chick?"

The kid is two. Are you worried about her developing gender issues? She has no idea she looks like a boy. This is ridiculous. In six months her hair will grow out and it won't be a problem. Or you can put a dress on her or bow in her hair. This is purely for the parent's ego so she doesn't have to think her little girl looks like a boy. This is an extremely selfish reason to do this. Nothing like a permanent solution to a temporary problem.

Goddammit that's what I'm talking about.
Now I'm getting mad again.
I can't wait for the following conversation:
"I know I screwed up. I'm sorry. But it was 3 weeks ago. Get over it."
"Yeah but I rehash it daily on 2+2."
"WHAT?"
"Just be glad I didn't do a poll."
