The Color of Relief

Ryan: What do you want to be when you grow up?

Cass: A dinosaur

Ryan: Really? What kind?

Cass: A Stegosaurus...

[thinking]

A pink stegosaurus! But I can't be pink, because everyone says that only girls like pink. And I'm a boy.

Ryan: You can like whatever color you want to. Do you know what? I have some pink shirts.

Cass: You do? Really? Can I see them sometime?

Ryan: Of course.
