  1. I have seen my brother partaking in feminine activities and he honestly has not been frowned by society or by family because he is a little kid and they can play whatever entertains them.

  2. Personally, I wouldn't care what kind if toys my child would play with. It would be his or her own decision and i would respect that. But, I also understand that the child's peers help determine what they play with as well. I think it would be good to have toys that are gender-neutral.

  4. I don't really know what to think of this. I am curious to see the outcome of what happens and if they think any different as an adult. Maybe they actually are on to something.

    1. I agree, it will be interesting to see what kinds of effects this has on the children later in life.

  5. It shouldn't matter what they do, they are going to grow up to be whoever they grow up to be

  6. I think Gender neutral toys are a good idea. Children should have the option to play with whatever toys they want.

    1. This comment is like saying, Women should have to drive different vehicles than men because we are different.

  8. I think its a good idea to have neutral gender toys but its weird to me that boys play with babies especially when they are a little older but when they are younger its all about what occupys them.

  9. I wonder how these neutral gender toys would impact kids later on in life.
