OK, the official word from Mattel is that having asked little kids what they prefer, they claim kids WANT gender neural dolls that have neither masculine nor feminine characteristics! Androgynous playthings they can dress up any way they want as "its." And the parents are in for it as well.
In other words, no more GI Joes or Barbies. The boys don't identify with soldiers, combat, fighting, strategy, battles, winning, and the girls have no interest in being pretty, fashion, dresses, cooking, or taking care of a home. And the parents don't want their little boys to look like boys and their girls to look like girls.
I'M CALLING BULLSHIT.
We are headed for one sorry world as we continue to let our children be programmed like this. Now GENDER is a bad thing? What kind of world will it be when our boys grow up not boys and our girls not girls, where boys have no interest in leadership, planning, combat, defense, battle. winning, yet are faced with a world where they are called upon and needed to lead, plan, fight, defend, and win? And what kind of mothers will the girls be who have no interest in being a lady, mothering, home economics, or raising a family.
Children of the future will probably be raised by robots as depersonalized things and everyone will interface with machines. Fuck dat.
