A reflection about the traditions and divisions between boy and girl's clothing. Why can’t we dress as we like?
Una reflexión sobre las tradiciones y las divisiones entre la ropa de chico y la de chica. ¿Por qué no podemos vestir como nos apetece?
Leo loves to wear costumes: pirate, superhero, knight... he also likes to put on a lavender skirt, but the day he decided to go out with it, someone mistakes him for a girl. He gets very angry. Can’t a boy play and put on a skirt? Years ago, girls weren´t allowed to wear pants...
A Leo le encanta disfrazarse. De pirata de superhéroe, de caballero… También le gusta ponerse una falda morada, pero el día en que decidió salir a la calle con ella, una señora mayor pensó que Leo era una niña y él se enfadó mucho. ¿No puede un niño jugar y ponerse una falda? Hace años, a las niñas no les dejaban ponerse pantalones…
