Tj Maxx - Manager Made Sexest Comment About My Three Year Old Liking Dora
It was 10:30 AM on a Friday morning. I took my three year old son into TJ Maxx in Winchester, Virginia.
I was called up to the cash register to check out. I told my son "Put your goodies on the counter for the cashier to ring up" My son did what I asked and was so excited about his finds. When my son placed his Dora The Explorer books up on the counter the male associate said "You don't want these, these are for girls." I looked at him with disbelief. How could someone make that comment, let alone to a three year old?
I looked at my son and said "It's okay, whatever you like and enjoy is fine as along as your not harming anyone" The look on his face made me tear up. An adult let alone a mother are children's only voice. I then took it into my hands to reach out and voice what happened. I called to speak to the manager after I had left.
I wanted to blow it off, though when I got to the car my son no longer wanted his books. He looked hurt and that angered me. When I called I asked to speak to the manager. Five minutes of waiting and a man comes on the phone.
The same man that made that rude comment to my son. I then connected the pieces and it turns out the man that said that to my son was the manager! I then called corporate about this matter. This is not solved but it will be when I am through.
Call it sexest, call it homophobic and both will not be tolerated, especially towards my son. I wanted people to be aware of this and please speak up against this if you come across this with this manager.
Monetary Loss: $5000.

It sounds like you were the one that was a bully. Sounds like your homophobic and that's something more of a problem then accepting her son as *** or straight.
If he gets bullied *** stand up for himself and his beliefs and what he is. It's what I have raised him to do. The manager had no right to comment, I'm a proud mom!
I have a girl and a boy and if they are ***/straight or *** I will love them. That's a real parent, just so you know :)
The manager was only doing what is best for your son. If he starts kindergarten and still likes girl things than he is not going to have any friends.
They are going to think he is a sissy. You need to shape your son in the right direction before he has no friends and gets beat up at school. Instead of complaining you should be thanking the manager, he saved your son a life time of misery and loneliness. Good thing the manager got your son off of this girly stuff.
Imagine your *** calling a friend over and finding his room with Dora stuff when he starts school. Soon that friend will tell the rest of the class, it would get around to the school and people will call your son a Brony, and he will be an outcast.
He is just looking at your son's best interest, something you failed to do. If you wanted a daughter don't turn your son into a girly boy.
For starters the manager had no right to and I quote "doing what is best for your son. " He is there to sell merchandise that's all.
Kevin have you ever watched
Dora the Explorer on TV?
The show is for both sexes not just girls. Geeess what a goober
You are a drooling retard. It's not the place of some random dude to make parenting choices and harass a little kid.
If the kid likes Dora then he likes dora, so the *** what? You must have had a very repressed childhood.
