The forces of patriarchy never sleep when it comes to their mission of teaching gender stereotypes. The following brief article by Abby Zimet has illustrations of a pink oven, a pink cleaning trolley and even pink computer dumbed down for the girls, contrasted with telescopes, chemistry sets and better computers for the boys. Why wait for your sons and daughters to grow up before they are injured by sexist attitudes when you can put them in their place with a simple trip to the toy store?
Along with the article is a clip of a 13 year old girl who isn’t having any of it.
