If you see Jon Stewart on the streets of New York, he may be “on a date with a aging French hooker,” aka his three-year-old lipstick smeared daughter Maggie.
On an appearance on The Late Show with David Letterman, Jon Stewart discussed with Dave his daughter's love of lipstick stating, “she wants to wear lipstick…but she does not have necessarily …the motor skills. Bless her heart, we leave in the morning to go to school and I feel like I’m on a date with an aging miniature French hooker.” Or perhaps Emmett Kelly.
Jon also discussed how his 3 year-old daughter and his 4 ½ year old son Nate strictly adhere to 1950’s gender stereotypes. “He, everything is a gun. She wants to play princess. We try to desperately ( to change that), one day I said “Maggie your going to play super heros, and Nate, here’s a baby.” I turn around and the Incredible Hulk has an apron on meanwhile babyman is trying to gouge out the dog’s eyes.”
My own three-year-old daughter, she won’t leave the house without lipstick on, so I totally know where he’s coming from. As much as I try to integrate items that come from a more boyish toy box, she opts to have nothing to do with them. It’s all pink, princesses and tea parties. Do your children stick with the old school gender roles?
