‘Boy or girl?’ Parents raising ‘theybies’ let kids decide.

One way of shielding children from gender stereotypes: Keep their biological sex secret.

NBC-

Three-year-old twins Zyler and Kadyn Sharpe scurried around the boys and girls clothing racks of a narrow consignment store filled with toys. Zyler, wearing rainbow leggings, scrutinized a pair of hot-pink-and-purple sneakers. Kadyn, in a T-Rex shirt, fixated on a musical cube that flashed colorful lights. At a glance, the only discernible difference between these fraternal twins is their hair — Zyler’s is brown and Kadyn’s is blond.

Is Zyler a boy or a girl? How about Kadyn? That’s a question their parents, Nate and Julia Sharpe, say only the twins can decide. The Cambridge, Mass., couple represent a small group of parents raising “theybies” — children being brought up without gender designation from birth. A Facebook community for these parents currently claims about 220 members across the U.S.

“A theyby is, I think, different things to different people,” Nate Sharpe told NBC News. “For us, it means raising our kids with gender-neutral pronouns — so, ‘they,’ ‘them,’ ‘their,’ rather than assigning ‘he,’ ‘she,’ ‘him,’ ‘her’ from birth based on their anatomy.”

Parents in the U.S. are increasingly raising children outside traditional gender norms — allowing boys and girls to play with the same toys and wear the same clothes — though experts say this is happening mostly in progressive, well-to-do enclaves. But what makes this “gender-open” style of parenting stand out, and even controversial in some circles, is that the parents do not reveal the sex of their children to anyone — including the children themselves. If no one knows a child’s sex, these parents theorize, the child can’t be pigeonholed into gender stereotypes.

  4. The only positive I see here is that these Leftards are impacting their ability to reproduce. If they keep this shit up long enough, maybe we can eradicate that recessive Libtard Gene.

  9. Child abuse, pure and simple. The parents are inducing severe mental illness in their children. The very best they could hope for is that their children become drug addicts. More likely, they will kill themselves before they even get out of high school.

  14. I normally believe that parental rights are inviolable where it comes to their kids, but this is child abuse, pure and simple. The parents are trying to foist their own mental disorder on their children, all in the name of being enlightened.

  18. The parent’s COULD have given the kids more normal non-sex-specific names such as Pat and Dale, but n-o-o-o-o-o! They had to raise the stakes even higher with Kadyn and Zyler. It takes a very special kind of sickness to burden your own children with such abuse all in the name of virtue vice signaling.

  27. So, take away the formative confidence building years, before school starts.

    Topple everything that is the foundation of life, after birth.

    Wow, kindergarten should be a blast. The kids will be interesting to normal kids, who will wonder what planet the ‘its’ are from.

    No mom or dad, just you and hey you!
