I like to ask if boys should be allowed to pay with toys normally associated with girls. Will this affect them when they grow up? Or should i be worried if my 3 year old likes to play with a kitchen set?

Should boys be allowed to play with girlie toys?
The answer is yes. A boy playing with a doll does NOT turn him into a sissy. Boys need to be allowed to express their feminine side after all half of their DNA is female. The same is if a boy wants to wear a skirt or dresses. He is still a boy. He will still exhibit male behaviors which generally are more aggressive and over bearing at times. If he tells you he prefers girlish things and wishes or wants to be a girl, then he should be tested for trangenderism, both physiological and psychollogical. I am transgendered and my parents accepted that fact. In growing up I exuded both masculine and feminine traits and this was the norm for me. It may not be the norm for other boys, but should be watched and openly discussed with your family.

The answer to your question is yes. Boys should definitely be allowed to play with girlie toys. On the other hand, the answer to the question "Is it okay to call a boy a "sissy" because he likes to do so??" is no. A boy who plays with girlie toys should simply be called a boy, which is what he is.
