history: My 3 yr old daughter was a very vocal child.  She told the cashier at the grocery store, who was a man, that boys don't wear earrings when she saw his earring. I don't know if you have experience with small children_comma_ but when my daughter was 3 years old_comma_ she spoke her mind all the time.
current: Did she ever embarass you out in public?
next: Numerous times!  The most memorable was when we were checking out at the grocery store.  The cashier was a man that had an earring.  She promptly (and very clearly and loud) told him "Boys don't wear earrings and you need a haircut"
