Just saw this :

From now on all John Lewis kids clothing ( other than school uniform ) will no longer have labels that says - Boys or Girls.

Instead it'll say Boys & Girls / Girls & Boys .

LOL.
 

Come and try your new kecks on Jimmy......

Just like to get my stated offense in early here:

I for one am outraged! How dare John Lewis executives force little boys, instead of wearing a blue t-shirt with a choo-choo train, wear a lighter blue t-shirt with a giraffe that displays no clear sexual preference! While girls - little girls! - are forced to wear a hooded jumper with the solar system on it instead of the traditional bouquet of pink flowers that remind them that, much like a bunch of flowers, gender equality is essentially a carefully constructed artifice.

I bet this is just the sort of upbringing that jam tart who made Wayne drive her car had!

Nope
For starters no one is forcing anyone to wear anything, choice is always there. This is an attempt to neutralise gender stereo types, engendered at an early age, such as Girls could only possibly be interested in princesses and ponies and that pink is for girls. If a boy wants to wear pink they can do with out having to go the girls section to buy said article of clothing

Interesting that you think gender equality is some kind of trick by unknown forces

I agree, how can they be expected to recognise which genitalia they have when they reach their early teens if they haven't had it brainwashed into them from birth.
 

Seems like this explosion of pink clothing for girls and blue for boys started in the 1980's, coincidentally in line with massive rise in capitalism, big business etc etc

the main problem is girls being excluded from having 'boys toys' and not having practical clothing etc etc

Me and the mrs were getting new school bags for the kids this weekend and she said that if our youngest boy wanted a Barbie one then he could have it, she wouldn't have a problem with it. I guess the point I'm trying to make is that she's now in need of a new place to live and has no access to the children.

I think you may have missed the intent behind @caught's post.
