This came up on my Facebook page and I was a bit flabbergasted by the thought of gluing hair accessories to the head of a baby

But how will people know that you have the superior girl version of the baby product if you don't stick a bow on it?

FFS rediculous and surely a choking hazard??

YABU. It is so important that girls are put in the 'girl' box early so that they know their place, that gluing things to their heads is absolutely required.

What have I just seen? Sure no one in their right mind would do this?!

Lol at the earrings! You've been able to buy stick on earrings for donkeys - they're probably just as much of a choking hazard as these!

Funny quote in the Mirror newspaper There are people who are confused when they see a girl or boy because there are babies that are very ugly and with a nice bow it changes everything

YANBU. That is god awful. I feel irrationally pissed off about the awful sexism of it too. And yes, surely a choking hazard.

Hahaha it's awful Grin I thought those newborn-with-a-headband-on pictures couldn't get any worse but I was wrong.

Fair play to the creators for spotting a gap in the market! Clearly some people out there were clamouring for this life-changing product Grin

No hair necessary 😂

What the hell is nice about gluing a bow with algrave nectar glue to a bald baby girls head?

I would never use that for either of my DD's! Although I'm clearly not their target audience as I don't put headbands on them and buy some of their clothes from the boys section...

YANBU OP, super glue works better and can be used to glue other stuff as well.

That tag line -

"It's never too early to be girlie" Shock

I guess you would label me as "girlie" and I still find that just, Confused

Good grief! Beyond weird and ridiculous and don't get me started about the whole 'girlie' thing!

Why the hell would you glue anything to your baby!

Why does it matter if strangers know if you have a boy or a girl? If you care that much you could, you know, tell them.

My word.

I'm not sure if this is worse or better than Baby Bangs - yes, stick on
hair, for if your baby girl is a bit slow in growing her princess tresses.
