David Perry : At preschool , daughter named best dressed ; prizes ran along gender lines . He says gender stereotyping starts with the way we talk to girls as babies . He says Disney princesses , sexy clothes , dolls point girls at sexual subjugation , weakness . Perry : " ( she 's also a really snappy dresser ) , and I know she was only trying to make the transition moment special for each student .
