Life&Style sinks to a new low
What century are we in again?
The latest edition of the monument to journalistic integrity (sarcasm) that is Life&Style borders on something akin to gay panic with their new cover.
Perhaps they were taking their cue from Bonnie Fuller over at Hollywood Lifewho was tsk-tsking Shiloh’s fashion choices earlier this winter.
Guess if your not dressing up your little girl in sun dresses, leaving her hair long, ensure she plays with dolls and other gender specific pursuits, your either raising a lesbian in training or a kid destined to have gender identity crisis.
To prove their point, Life&Style went to several “experts” including a stylist at Vh1 that says Shiloh is entering “cross-dressing territory” and a director of at Focus On The Family (who foam at the mouth whenever confronted with anything that doesn’t involve their narrow view of the world). The fact that they went to a rabidly right wing organization for their article is very telling.
As for having her parents call her “John”, word is Shiloh loves the story of Peter Pan and the character of John specifically (hardly surprising since he’s the youngest character).
Letting your little girl wear pants and keeping her hair short (if she wants it and is an active kid) isn’t controversial, it’s practical.
