I got mum-shamed after buying my son a pink, furry onesie to wear – people slammed me for 'dressing him like a girl' | The Sun

A MUM who was slammed for dressing her son "like a girl" after buying him a pink, furry onesie has hit back at critics.

Liana recently took to Instagram to share a picture of her baby boy Koazy wearing the all-in-one, alongside the caption: "My little pink boy".



She quickly found herself inundated with comments from people insisting she shouldn't dress him in pink, with Liana responding in a video on TikTok.

"It’s freezing cold, we were travelling to Brighton, we were desperate for a pram suit because the baby didn’t have one," she said.

"We went to Sainsbury’s, his size wasn’t there apart from one pink, fluffy pram suit.

"I was like, ‘Absolutely, I’ll take that. I’d rather have my baby be warm anyways’.

"And he’s going to look so cute in pink because he’s got his cute little blue eyes and it’s going to bring them out.

"I didn’t think anything of it until I posted a picture of said pram suit and I was getting comments like, ‘Why is your little boy in pink? Why are you dressing him up like a girl?’ What?"

She then sarcastically continued: "So I’d like to make a formal apology. I didn’t know that only girls could wear pink.

"I've been wearing blue my whole life and I’m a girl. So I’m taking accountability and I will do better."
