My child, 10 years old, has taken to my 'girl-time' requirements quite well over the year since I began the program.
He was definitely turning into his father at 9 years old; same petulant, male-centric attitudes. I was determined to minimize this behavior.
It was quite a slow process of clothing and activity changes. I started by slowly replacing his normal boys sports-socks with shorter and longer socks; cute little ankle socks, and longer ones that became knee-socks of many colors.
By not mentioning it, just letting it happen, within 6 months he was obvliviously walking around with the cutest pastel-colored knee-socks, sometimes scrunched down, but with correction, he always had his girlish knee-socks tugged up just right.
Getting longer ones and insisting he pull them up got him quickly used to the idea of wearing tights, which I made him wear for Halloween, then at Christmas, I got him to agree and even get excited about being an Elf for the weekend, complete with green and red very streachy and shiny lycra girls ballet-tights, a green tunic I made by adding a flared skirt to a cotton, long-sleeved leotard, and boys ballet-slippers with little points sewn on to the toes. He looked just so sweet and pretty and cute, and I made sure he felt that way by inviting only guests who I knew would find him adorable.
At this point, a year later, I have him taking semi-private gymnastics classes in a special class with two other very gentle, girlish boys and two 'real' girls. The children are allowed to wear whatever they like for colors, as long as they attend classes in form-fitting clothing. The boys by now seem to really enjoy trying new outfits for it, frequently trading dance togs. Franky came home yesterday wearing a soft orange-color leotard over a pair of white lycra footless tights that end just below his knees that I know belong to little Jeffry. I did call his mother and she laughed it off, saying she had my son's tights and dance-top.
It's all about psychology and slow changes.

Dear Steffie,
Have you thought of panties yet? You can start with plain white, flyless "underpants". as a reminder to sit instead of standing and making a mess. Then you can add color and various fabrics, patterns and styles. Hair styles are another area where slow changes can be made.
Love, Charlaine

You should buy him a nice pair of girls China Flat Mary Janes to wear after school and on the week-ends and around the house. Theres nothing more feminine than wearing girls footwear. I wore these when I was 9 yrs old and all the kids knew that I had a "sissy streak" in me because I was wearing frilly ankle socks and girlie shoes that my Aunt bought me..... but I loved showing off in them. My Aunt bought me a pair of white girls sandals later that summer and I wore them them with girls pantyhose and had painted toe nails.

My son loves girly clothes particularly tights. He attends ballet class and wears the girls uniform of pink leotard white tights and pink ballet shoes. He wears girls panties always and when travelling to ballet class he likes to wear a red kilt, white tights and white blouse. On his feet he wears the most delicious black patent Mary-Janes.
Thought this would be an enjoyable read. Wonder how he is doing 9 years after the fact!
