Two years ago for Halloween, when his daughter decided she wanted to dress up as Han, Tom Burns agreed to be the Leia to her Solo.  And the result – complete with Leia’s iconic hairdo – is downright adorable.

This dad wore a skirt to support his 5-year-old son who likes to wearing dresses sometimes: 

 

Writing for the Huffington Post, dad Nils Pickert explained:

“He is my son, not my property. I don’t own him. If there is such a thing as owning a human being, he owns me. I made him, I dreamed of him, I longed for him; now he is in my life, and I am responsible for him as long as there is breath in me. So I teach him the rules and what to do with them. Not every rule makes sense… It is not OK for anybody to mess with my son about his outfit. Hence I wear dresses and skirts so that any person who has a problem with that and feels the necessity to express his or her resentments can mess with me.
