Gender neutral toy catalogue - opinions?

[ashes]

Ma'am, that's not what I said at all.

Then maybe you need to clarify.

Halright.

Well, first off, gender neutrality doesn't mean anyone's taking the pink away, it's just saying that pink is awesome and so is blue, and your position betrays ignorance and factual inaccuracies, hence why I said it was wrong.

Anyway, peace out.

I don't see how my position portrays ignorance - all I said was that I'm proud to be a woman and that my life is not defined by toys.   But it's a free country and you're welcome to think whatever you want.

I've always thought it was stupid that we have a stigma about boys getting dolls, yet have progressed to the point where we expect men to dote on and care for their babies.   When "dolls are for girls" was first conceptualized, the basic idea was that the only interaction men would have with their kids was disciplining them.   It makes zero sense to have a boys-dolls stigma now.

Regarding children, they are learning about and being schooled by gender differences long before anyone verbally tells them "dolls are for girls, cars are for boys".   Young children are absolute sponges, soaking up information based on their observations.
