Just watched the giver I think the begining of the film kinda shows what I was thinking when I made this post ... Banning everything so everyone confirms

I think it probably would lead to more creativity and our young people being more creative- but we'll see -

Boys shouldn't play with baby dolls or toy kitchens. It's not like they should grow up to be loving father's or know how to cook a basic meal.

Girls shouldn't play with guns, because everyone knows they'll never have a future in the military or police force.

Seriously, did you THINK before posting this drivel?!

Looks cool on these scifi movies... so no.

No

Nah. It won't be the toys and clothing that'll cause it.

If anything it will lead to a better society where people can grow up not stuck to gender stereotypes. Where a little girl can wear boys clothes and play with superhero comicbook action figures without being told "those are for boys, you are gonna grow up to be a lesbian like that" and where boys can like dolls and dresses without being shamed for it. I see a happier, healthier world where value is placed less on what's in your pants and more on what's in your heart

So you ASSume unless one is defined by what current USA thought calls "male" or "female" that there is no other distinction between individuals? Sounds kinda silly when I put it that way, no?

I don't think so. Lego is already gender neutral. Have we reached the Handmaid's Tale?

I think breaking out of the traditional gender roles has made for more interesting toy playing. My daughter can alternate between having a nice tea party, or playing superheroes, or having superheroes over for tea.

Up until about 30-40 years ago, most children's toys weren't gender-specific.

No, it means l can wear those adorable pumps and matching purse in public without being shunned. ☺
