trans siblings?

I Havent posted a while because the status quo hasnt changed much. D. won't do any activities associated with girls at school but will play Elsa and other princesses at home. His drawing skills have developed and he's channelling much of his girl interests into drawing. He draws pages and pages of princesses with big hair and big dresses. He plays both with both boys andgirls. His other favorite activities are climbing which he is really quite good at. He can do things that make me hold my breath. He likes building with the blocks, alternately building castles (for the princesses of course) and homes for animals.

And oh yeah last but not least. He's played that his little brother was a girl too but I drew the line at that. Pretty soon some trans theorist will claim that a 4.5 year old child innately knows not only his own gender but his baby brothers.

And I still have not found an acceptable outlet for for his longing to be beautiful. I showed him male sufi dervishess twirling in their skirts. He was interested but no competition for princesses... i think he can sense the difference between religious devotion and beauty.
