Playing with my friend’s baby daughter: Baby talk!.

My one friend who runs an integrated homelessness / domestic violence shelter has a 14 month old daughter, and I always try to be very feminist with the baby.
Like a month ago when I saw her, I would go up to play with her and start saying in a playing-with-babies voice, “Who’s beautiful but doesn’t let her self-worth be determined by others?  Who's beautiful but doesn't let her self-worth be determined by others?”.
At that, her mom, who has studied social psychology, started saying, “Who’s got a strong inner locus?  Who’s got a strong inner locus?”.

Then, turning to me, she was like, “Christ, my kid is going to be so weird.”
