Parents Raising 'Genderless' Child

I got into reading a bunch of stuff online this morning, and find this article about these parents who have decided to raise a genderless child.  I'm puzzled and interested at the same time, so I must read this.  Parents Raising Genderless Child is interesting, to say the least. The parents have decided to not tell anyone (outside of a few close relatives) the gender of their child.  Yes, they have other children, boys, who are encouraged to be unique, from what I am understanding.  By making this decision to NOT disclose the gender of this child, it has caused the parents a lot of negative backlash.  But let's think about this for a second, is it really THAT bad that they aren't telling the world what the gender of the baby is?  If the baby is a girl, she would be expected to be cute and cuddly and sweet, dressed in pinks and purples.  If the baby is a boy, he would be expected to be tough and wear blue and green.  Things that define a gender.  Some jobs are looked at as primarily for men or primarily for women.  This child gets the opportunity to NOT be confined to a gender.  This child probably won't hear the words "That's only for little girls/boys" or "Little boys/girls don't do that".
I know a lot of people probably don't agree with this.  This isn't a decision for everyone, but these parents have taken that step towards allowing their children to be themselves, and not make them follow "gender rules".  I personally have a rough and tough little boy and while I am protective of him, don't dare ever call him a girl (even though he is way too cute to be a boy).  But no 2 sets of parents are alike, and nobody is running around judging ALL of them, so why judge the parents who have chosen to be different?
