Better question.
Why don't you just ******* walk to the superhero aisle instead of the princess aisle.
#42 to #8 - anon (01/16/2015) [-]
Who says it's the princess aisle? It could actually just say "Girl's Toys", I've seen a lot of stores that divide toys by gender. She's kind of right to be annoyed, because it's just going to make boys and girls who like opposite toys feel confused.
#43 to #42 - anon (01/16/2015) [-]
You're talking as if girls and boys are forbidden to go to the others section.
#46 to #43 - anon (01/16/2015) [-]
Because that's exactly how society HAS been acting for a while. Boys are ******* shamed and bullied for liking anything meant for girls, and girls are treated like femininity is all that should matter.
#50 to #46 - anon (01/16/2015) [-]
I said forbidden, not looked down on.
You realize no matter what you do someone will disagree right? But the important thing is that you can still do it.

Boys can still go buy dolls and pink stuff while girls can still go buy nerf guns or whatever. No one is stopping them, the bullying comes after and like I said, no matter what you do you're gunna get bullies.

But their parents are saying no dude... Really... Boys can't just buy whatever they want you realize this right? Kids can't just buy whatever the **** they want most the time lol. It depends on the parent and most parents will tell their son no to a doll because they are a boy.
#107 to #90 - anon (01/16/2015) [-]
Unless you're assuming every parent this isn't much of an argument.
And boys do buy dolls, they just call them "action figures."
#52 to #50 - anon (01/16/2015) [-]
I know, I'm just tired of hearing the "well they can still buy it" thing, because it IS something we should be talking to the newer generations about. I know bullying always happens, but we shouldn't tell the boy his hobbies have to be something to be ashamed of, or that a girl can't enjoy Marvel and DC. Too often the boys vs girls toys gets ignored.
#72 to #46 - anon (01/16/2015) [-]
woooooooooooooooooow **** stick right because boys how loved action figures and **** are never bullied

She's a 3-4 year old girl who is just realizing that a great deal of toys are marketed by gender, not the interest of the child. Cut her a break, she's ahead of the damn curve.

realized...
you mean got told this
User avatar #89 to #79 - animationhac ONLINE (01/16/2015) [-]
No not really. Kids can figure things out on their own. I got a lot of farm animal, dinosaurs, ect. and I always wondered by boys always got them and why a girl wasn't on it instead. Its not hard for a kid to ask why they targeted their favorite thing to the opposite gender. Imagine when boys ask "why can't I have a doll" when parents tell them they can't because their a boy and thats a "girl" toy. Has nothing to do with what their parents told them but that they have eyes and can see that it was meant for a boy by the pictures.

"ahead of the damn curve"

You must not have talked to a lot of kids, because you'll find that almost all of them says **** like this.

Kids are amazing in a lot of ways.

Does any body actually believe that you should buy certain 			****		 for certain genders anymore?   
   
I just assumed nowadays people actually 			*******		 ask their child what toys they would enjoy.   
   
Just talk to your 			*******		 kids it's not that hard.

The "problem" is they make toys for kids way before that age. By the time kids are 3 they already have dolls and action figures of some sort and parents are already buying toys catered towards different genders, and kids just go with it most of the time. There are exceptions, but there's definitely some priming.
User avatar #92 to #51 - animationhac ONLINE (01/16/2015) [-]
People still buy things that are for certain genders yes.

My experiences growing up, I got a lot of makeup when I asked for video games and dinosaurs. It happens to a lot of people. Its not common to have progressive parents or family members..
User avatar #103 to #92 - ihaspotato (01/16/2015) [-]
If my kid asked me to buy specific stuff for them, it's a pretty big dick move if i buy something else for them if you ask me.
User avatar #104 to #103 - animationhac ONLINE (01/16/2015) [-]
It might be but people don't want their kids being the opposite gender then they are. The kids expressing to wanting to do what the other gender usually does (stereotypically) scares them.
Luckily, my mother was typically good about this however it didn't stop the onslaught of Bratz, Barbie, makeup, ect being thrown at me.

Hopefully with the new generation of people we will get past gender when getting gifts.

AMAZING THAT SHE IS SAYING THE WORDS HER MOTHER TOLD HER TO SAY SO SHE COULD RECORD IT AND LOOK PROGRESSIVE.
#128 to #13 - gerfox (01/16/2015) [-]
Kids can actually say the most philosophical **** at times, as a parent you'll just stand there baffled. And the next moment you have to tell them not to eat their own ****
#20 to #13 - anon (01/15/2015) [-]
That was her father recording, and it is a quite famous video

her parents made her say*

I dunno dude the look on her face is a little bit too real to look like she was faking it for the camera. Not many kids can act that well, and she seems to be seriously disgruntled by the topic.
User avatar #91 to #13 - animationhac ONLINE (01/16/2015) [-]
Idk, I think kids can ask why is this a "boy" toy and not a "girl" toy too and not have their parents spoon feed them the words. Kids are smarter than you think. I remember when I was a kid and wanted "boy toys" instead of girl ones. It was infuriating.
User avatar #39 to #13 - funnytime (01/16/2015) [-]
my thought exaxtly - no kid that age would even think about stuff like that on their own

but its nice to see how easy kids can be manipulated in different ways
#118 to #39 - anon (01/16/2015) [-]
I did that when i was seven <.<

I used to buy stuff for my younger brother brother, so when i asked him if he wanted anything from the pink isle, he said that it was for girls.

I asked why he thought so, and i just replied with "Because it's pink".
Kids think about that stuff, just only in the moment they encounter it.
User avatar #124 to #118 - funnytime (01/16/2015) [-]
the only reason he didnt like "pink" was because he was told "its for girls, you are no girl", there is nothing attached to the color itsself. its proving the point kids usually just repeat what they are told, since social rules and what is "normal" or "wanted" in the society is trained into kids. no usual young kid would question morals/social rules if not asked to question them.

But what did you do?
User avatar #94 - itsasecrettoyou ONLINE (01/16/2015) [-]
and here is a prime example of a child repeating political dogma with no real understanding of what she is saying. (likely instilled from her proud, independent mother who don't need no man)

A kid that was left to pick her own **** wouldn't be saying stuff like this, she would pick the toy she wants and then they would leave

Kid's don't do what their parent's say they imitate what their parents do.
All in all the kid is actually correct in what she's saying, there are differences between men and women on average and biologically but boy's aren't actually biologically inclined towards blue or away from pink.
In fact our gender has a lot less influence on the difference between the genders than the media does at this point.
Also kid's do think of this, they question thing's because those thing's are new to them, they don't have preexisting ideas of what thing's should be like and they're inherently curious.

Here's some news: you don't have to.
The pink **** is pink for the people that like pink ****
It being pink is not forcing you to buy it.
No one is forcing you to do anything.
Sure they might suggest that girls should buy girl toys, but that's how ******* marketing works.

A lot of social issues would completely evaporate if people would just remember that they have ******* free will.

it's far to important to be offended by stuff. No time to educate yourself, or god help us, actually use your own brain for once.
User avatar #93 to #73 - animationhac ONLINE (01/16/2015) [-]
Parents also force certain standards on their children too. The kids don't have a choice.

from my experience young girls always sound grown up in what they say and how they act.
its why it so hard to have sex when they all like, nah ill get pregnant that was a joke i just shove it in

you know what I had when I was a kid? a ton of action man and gi joe toys, and I loved that 			****		, do you know what else I had? a 			*******		 toy kitchen, because I REALLY loved that 			****		, my aspiration as a kid was to be a police officer, soldier or firefighter (basically someone who protects people) who also took care of the house   
   
now I'm a depressed computer engineer who can barely find enough joy in programming (I really like it, but motivation is hard to come by) to do his 			*******		 job

To me this sounds like she was clearly coached by her parents to have this opinion. I think hipster parents who coach their kids like this are on the verge of emotionally abusing their kids.

Gender identity is a huge part of growing up, and sure, if a boy wants to play with barbies, that's totally his choice and the parents shouldn't make him feel bad about it, but I see too many parents who actively try to make their children play with toys made for the opposite gender, just because they want a special little gay snowflake for a child
#130 to #129 - anon (01/16/2015) [-]
Possibly, but that may not necessarily be the case here take my sister for example: she was never really into girly things like dolls and the like - her main interest was video games, as was mine
User avatar #133 to #130 - minorian (01/16/2015) [-]
Yeah, but the way she talks sounds like a person that's much older. A little girl doesn't talk like that, unless she has hear someone she looks up to talk like that.
User avatar #127 - thekillerwalrus ONLINE (01/16/2015) [-]
I remember when I was little, me and my sisters would play Barbies (though I had my Spiderman action figure) and I remember asking my mom to get me the guy polly pocket with the rubber clothes cuz my sisters had the girl ones.
