Little Boy Pink

The strategy that most affects the essay communicated with the audience is emotion. The author of the essay expresses an emotional tie towards other parents or guardians with little boys dressing up in girl clothing. She goes on to write about how it affected her, thinking that her son would grow up to be homosexual or a cross dresser. However, further into the readings, the mother conveys a sense of pride that her son is being creative and has a sense of imagination. Explaining further on after gathering outside evidence that it is okay for little boys to play dress up, also reassuring any other parent or guardian going through the same process that it is quite normal. Afterward, explaining that whether her son does express that he is a homosexual, she will still love him the same and jokes about presenting video recorded evidence of his love for dressing up regardless of his sexual orientation.
I chose this piece because it popped out to me. I have previously gone through three other essays of choice but after reading through them, I did not find them interesting enough to finish or write about. I also thought that this reading was cute, and that it gave parents and guardians present to future an inside look as to why it is okay for little boys to play dress up and to get rid of the worry that their son will grow up to be a homosexual.
