Mama Rant: Old People Are Crazy!

I just had to share this exchange I had with an elderly man at the gym this morning.

Scene One
Setting: 8:30 AM, Mama J is holding Baby M in her arms as she walks to the gym from her car. Because the nursery there is traumatizing enough for Baby M, she is without helmet. Mama J is giving her kisses on her head as they walk towards the entrance. A short, slow-moving, elderly man with glasses (of course) is exiting the gym...

Old Man: Wow you sure do love your little boy.

Mama J: Girl. She is a little girl.

Old Man: Are you sure? Looks like a little boy to me.

Mama J: I am pretty sure I know my daughter is a GIRL. See the pink socks, and pink top. Wouldn't dress my son like this.

Old Man: Well, let's just hope she doesn't turn into a boy in the future...

Mama J stops in her tracks to try and decipher what the Old Geezer meant by that comment...
Does he mean he hopes she doesn't want to have a sex change (if that does happen in the future I will love her no matter what of course)? Or is he implying that me dressing her in a blue sweater (over the aforementioned pink top that was showing) with brown fleece pants will magically change her DNA and make her a boy in the future? Or is he some sort of wizard that was threatening to put a spell on me? Or is he just a batty old man who has lost his marbles?

I think my daughter looks like a girl. Granted she is only 10 months and some babies could go either way at this age, which is why I never assume a baby is a girl or a boy. BUT it is fairly obvious at this age.

I am fairly girly, and I dress my daughter in dresses and skirts, and pink, a lot but I like her to wear blues and greens and browns a lot too. Sorry Old Man, it isn't the 40s and you don't have to dress your baby girl in pink dresses all the time.

Just had to rant...
