I will do whatever it takes to make my daughter happy and if that’s wrong I don’t want to be right.

If that means being an army dude, paint my face. If that means being a princess at a tea party, paint my nails.

Whatever she decides she wants to be, I want to be there cheering her on. If you take that attitude and try to extend it to everyone you meet you make a better world.

Truly. Thanks for being a decent human being.

Hey that's for real man

So what you're saying is, it will involve being painted, no matter what?

[–] [email protected] 13 points 7 months ago (1 children)

Exactly. We all know that princess or army dude are the only two choices. /s

I want a daughter that wants to be a princess army dude!

Look man there was a wholesale offer on body paint and momma didn't raise no quitter

I imagine you'd also support her in being a man if she wanted to

I don’t see anything in my statement that should lead you to believe otherwise.

I just love her. Don’t care what the packaging is.

I didn't either, I just wanted to know it explicitly honestly

Thank you for being kind

Sorry to bother you

It’s all good. I’m glad to provide that reassurance.

It breaks my heart to think about the people out there without supportive parents. I want you all to know you’re enough just how you are. You’re worth loving. I wish I could help everyone.
