I blame liberals, women, and communists.
Not in that order. Women should probably get the most blame.

There is nothing wrong in males playing with "female toys" unless you are sexist.
If a male child wants to play with the kitchen set, why is that really a bad thing? All the top celebrity cooks are bascially all males anyway, are you trying to say they are all homosexual? Also, what is wrong with a male playing with barbie and ken and exploring relationships with the two dolls? Are they only meant to play with action men killing eachother?
It is more to do with social environment and attitudes than just because some one wanted PVC flooring.
i was always a big fan of my easy bake oven, though more because i like eating.........
it depends on the age of the child, how they are playing, how much of their time is spent with said toys, and how intent they are on playing with feminine toys
Yes, we are meant to learn how to kill each other. Understanding the opposite sex is supposed to be a mystery to us. We can't jeopardize that by having young boys potentially learning about relationships (other than spotter, sniper, pointman, wingman, etc) via Ken and Barbie and applying that learning to their future girlfriends/wives.Quote:

What we perceive to be masculine and feminine toys are merely constructs of our culture to make children adapt to social norms. It's not as if colours can be gender specific, as for a long time, pink was a boy's colour (Due to it's "radical" nature), and blue (the colour of the Virgin Mary) was the colour of girls.
Are Barbies and Action Men really that different? Sorry Comic Book Guy, but they're both dolls, intended to simulate relationships and social situations, independent of whether they have a ponytail or a crew cut. The idea that trace amounts of some chemicals found in the manufacturing of plastics is turning boys into girls (Which is what this article, from the otherwise respectable BBC, implies) as some boys play with "girl's" toys is preposterous, and is bad science and bad journalism.
Indeed, it used to be pink for boys and blue for girls. As blue was seem as virgin mary, an innocent and calm colour. :yes:Quote:

Yes well, why don't you take some estrogen pills then, like transexuals do? Nothing wrong with that, lets feed them to children.Quote:

OMG, you don't think they use that stuff in :sweatdrop: beer can liners & twinkie wrappers, do you? suppresses the urge to slip into something more comfortable...
The only way to ensure your child boy grows up manly is to only let him play with toys made of various animal scrotums
Just go Spartan. If worked out well enough for them. Make sure you cleanse the area of any Thebans though, they're trouble.
I have the sudden urge to go on a shopping spree, Dolce and Gabbana anyone?
No, it actually saidQuote:

So women should not eat plastic chemicals during pregnancy? What about plastic explosives? :inquisitive:
Unless they're having girls, and they want super-feminine girls.
Apparently, the one for us adult males to stay away from is BPA.

I remember reading a while back about the high levels of estrogen/progestin in the water supply from birth control pills. Basically, men are all just turning into :daisy:.Quote:
While environmental groups have sounded the alarm about the presence of bisphenol-A, or BPA, in products such as infant formula, baby bottles and other plastics, a new study provides some of the first evidence that the chemical can be harmful to humans, linking it to sexual dysfunction in men in high doses.
The biggest threat is Soya, full of Phytoestrogen. Free Sex Change for Male Vegans.
Oh gawd, just kill me now...Quote:
