Bad feminist parenting

I saw Taylor this weekend and was telling her about Maybelle's love for "All the Single Ladies" and her attempts to dance along. Taylor requested a video, so here it is.

That was adorable! But if you want to put a different spin on it it also looked a little like she was signing 'all done'. As in, "I am DONE with this drivel, mom"

Ok -- so first off you need to be a really bad feminist parent and put this on youtube. I love how she comes up to the screen in time with the singers when they do close ups and how she glances back at the screen from time to time to get her moves down. And I love the beginning where she is just hanging out wiggling her hips in time to the beat.....

Love it! She's got the dance moves down. It is the catchiest song, I have to admit...

I know you know this, but: It's only bad feminist parenting if you don't teach her to think about critically.

feminist or not - this made me laugh until I cried - there's something about that song that kids love!

Taylor said...

Ha! I love it! Thanks! I agree with Claire about You Tube. She has got those hand movements down and the "Uh Oh Ohs!"

It was so great to see you!

Oh my frickin' goodness! That is the cutest thing I've seen in a long time where little kids are concerned. :)
