Little 5 year old Romeo Clarke used to attend the Rugby Christian Fellowship Church group in the UK. Recently he was baned for waring dresses. Romeo has 3 older sisters and loves to dress up as most young children do. Why is a church baning a child? Here is why.

According to the church, he is not wearing gender appropriate clothing as he was enrolled as a boy.
His mother, Georgina Clarke, is outraged at the ban and says the church is discriminating against her son. Romeo’s father, Winston Morris, said he didn’t care if his son wanted to wear dresses, saying “he can be whatever he wants to be.”

The family said they had been approached by the church club, which Romeo attended on a Wednesday afternoon, who told them their son was not welcome if he continued to wear dresses.
Minister-in-training Bex Venables defended the church’s decision.

Is this fair? Is this an act of Christianity? We think not. We can wear what ever we like period!
