Do you think children should be raised gender neutral?

Parents often opt out of going for the general stereotypes when it comes to colour coding their children’s rooms either pink or blue and settle for more neutral colours. But some parents have decided to raise their children gender neutral.

“Gender neutrality takes away identity. Even if the stereotype roles of genders have changed, it is still important to identify with a gender. Let children be children and let them make up their own mind when they grow up, don’t add to the confusion, they so depend on you for their upbringing.” Anonymous
