When I little boy my favorite color was pink and I played with baby dolls and my mom painted my nails and my favorite TV characters were girls and I'm completely fine. Liking or playing "different" things than the norm doesn't make you a bad person or a strange one. It simply makes you human.
Not as a society. As people. Just let your kids do whatever, as long as they aren't hurting anyone or doing anything wrong, just say screw it and let them live life. I'm tired of people saying we need to be open minded and politically correct. What we actually need is people. Not robots and overly sensitive cry babies.

Well, part of people being good people is accepting the fact that what you might see as an overly sensitive cry baby is also a person, one who's been through things you haven't and for whom something you think is silly may feel very serious. That's actually very easy to say and not so easy to do, since our gut reaction is to think "Well it wouldn't bother me, so it shouldn't bother them." It's something everybody does, and isn't inherently bad...but the world is a very big place and part of letting people live their own lives is being able to stop, listen to what it is they're actually being vocal about, and really taking the time to think about it instead of writing them off as whiners.
I just think this world is too concerned with being politically correct and I think if something bothers you then calmly talk about it. Don't take to the streets claiming racism or supremacy just because you're a little butt hurt.
I love this because it made me realize how much of the time we are controlled by the media and how much it influences people's lives and the impact it makes
Was visiting the store of an international sports brand with my 11yo daughter and she complained that they had only pinkish stuff for girls... Same thing there, it sucks.
>boys watch superhero movies more than girls
>boys read comic books more than girls
>these aren't valid reasons to market to boys over girls
>the word "tomboy" has something to do with aspects being "on loan"
>kid hanging himself for getting bullied for watching MLP is a special case where it's a gender issue and not an issue with bullying itself like every other time a kid hills himself because of bullying
>it's important that both genders play with both genders of dolls
>the future of the future
What a fucking train wreck of a video.
