Well, the child is three years old and certainly has no concept of gender/sex. So how and why is someone apparently assigning gender and sex to this child? Why not just keep it neutral? Especially in context of forced gender and sex assignations as well as intersex child mutilations. Shouldn't we be much more careful in this context not to force our biases and weird ideas of gender/sex onto children?!
