Why My 9-Year-Old Daughter Shops for Clothes in the Boys' Section

Last week, my daughter and I went shopping for clothes. After feeling the cold edges of autumn in the early mornings, Sage and I looked at her clothes, and decided that it was time to stack up on new pants, long-sleeved shirts and maybe even a light jacket. Like many parents at this time of year, we headed to the typical children's clothes stores to make the new wardrobe happen.
My daughter is 9 and she is very clear about her fashion aesthetic. She is a tomboy. Sage likes feeling comfortable in her clothes, and wants clothes that she can play soccer or kickball in during recess. Dresses and skirts, according to Sage, are constraining.
