Hah! I get this all the time. When I was off on parental leave with my son, I would always get “Awww, are you taking a day off work to babysit today?” - “No, I’m parenting.”

This is still very much alive and well. We are friends with a couple, the husband side of which will always give me grief about how we’ve bought my son a toy kitchen, tea sets, dollhouses, etc because they’re toys he likes to play with. And I always make it very clear that I have absolutely no problem with him playing with said “girly” toys, because they’re just toys, and toys aren’t going to “turn my son gay” - and that even if my son DOES turn out to be gay, I really don’t give a crap.
