Fujitsu don't think women need to be fussing around with links. That's why they came up with their Floral Kiss range of laptops, with everything just there for her: there's a Scapbook to gather up all those complicated link things, a specially personalised diary, and a special horoscope function...http://www.fujitsu.com/global/about/resources/news/press-releases/2012/1019-03.html

My son's only 3 but has played with his older sister's toys since he was born. He thinks nothing of playing with dolls and pushing the pram around, just as he plays with his tool kit and cars. He also like to have nail varnish on, he just assumed it's what everyone does, and we dont actively dioscourage it, to the point that he sometimes gets funny looks in the shops!
The sad thing is we have one "friend" who is pertified his son will turn out to be gay just because he plays with girls toys at the age of 3.

Kids are great. They know who they are and don't need external labels to identify themselves to the world. It's adults who are screwed up and broken in this respect.

O/T: Reminds me of when I let the dog up on the bed. She's a canine time/space conundrum. Grows to the size of a Great Dane / donkey when on the bed but can curl up small enough to fit into a small chair that could just about accommodate a terrier. Which is why I have to put things on the furniture when I go out.

The most heinous example of pointlessly gendered toys I have seen was in a Lego catalogue about 10 years ago. Everything in the catalogue was gendered, including their brilliant Mindstorms range which was for boys only, leaving some terrible pink castles and princesses for the girls - the sort of pre-formed lego that can only really build one thing, so not even creating very creative play within that limited pink/princess dominion.
Besides anything else, why were they denying themselves the sales from girls who might enjoy Mindstorms?

Luckily when I was little Lego was just ordinary. I think the most exciting innovation they had was opening doors and windows. I used to make spaceships out of it most of the time

Oh, sorry - you mean because the females of the species are the organised ones?
Yes I did mean that, now spank me some more teacher.
I think he means it's a woman's job to do the shopping.

Obviously that's not my opinion, don't shoot the messenger etc.

You're just trying to be after him in the 'over the knee queue' again,I think he means it's a woman's job to do the shopping.

Be honest now.
