Talk:The Boy Who Would be Queen/@comment-76.214.56.161-20110721090851

I think this episode was great. I was watching it with my 8 year old and it seemed like it dispelled many common place myths of todays societies. Firstly that boys are shunned and picked on by other boys for liking anything that they believe a girl should like. Timmy gets his first dose of reality when he is turned into a girl and complains and Cosmo says it doesn't matter what you say because you are a girl. Timmy learns another lesson at the mall when he realizes that even though he is a girl he still has a passion for comic books. Inside he runs into the girl dressed as a boy, hiding her true sex from her friends. This shows that girls are also made fun of and picked on for liking things that are made for boys. While Timmy learned a valuable lesson about girls, he had no popularity to risk in showing his friends that he cared for girls and girl things, the girl was less open.
