1. Why FDR looks like a girl: Traditionally, young boys were put in dresses until they were properly toilet trained, as the pants of the time were too complicated for a child to undo in a hurry. Furthermore, pants were expensive and much more easily outgrown than dresses. A boy getting his first pair of breeches was considered a kind of rite of passage towards manhood, though "breeching" was not considered effeminate, but rather a gender neutral practice. 2. Abraham Lincoln, like many presidents who were omitted, did not have a surviving childhood portrait or photograph. Lincoln, for example, grew up in the 1810's and 20's and was extremely poor, and thus it would have been unlikely for him to have been depicted in a portrait prior to the photograph taken for him upon his entry into politics in his 30's.

The first time i discovered the Franklin D. Roosevelt picture, I was shocked. Breeching was the occasion when a small boy was first dressed in breeches or trousers. From the mid-16th century until the late 19th or early 20th century, young boys in the Western world were unbreeched and wore gowns or dresses until an age that varied between two and eight. (From Wikipedia)

[@KTTstudios]

I had no idea what that was But you were too late cause I googled it before you commented this

[@delstanley1349]

In the mid 19th century through the Victorian Age taking post-mortem photos (not related to police work) was quite common for the families of the deceased. In many cases when children died, both girls and boys were dressed and posed to look like little dolls, some were posed sitting in chairs.

[@vladtheimpala5532]

I have seen pictures of my grandfather (born in 1899) dressed like that when he was under two years old. It was a shocker to see those pictures when I was a kid because my grandfather was a manly man. They did that before kids were potty trained partly because it was easier to change their diapers.

[@wartrix6046]

The reason was that it is easier to have the kid wear a dress than teach them to take off their pants when nature calls.
