I am a mum to a dd and a ds. I just wanted to know why some people now who have dd have to have everything in bright pink as if to say look at me I've got a girl. Am I the only one who feels the pink explotion in shops is a bit sexist towards boys? Anything you can buy also comes in pink. There also seems to be more girls clothes/toys in the shops than boys. Sorry if this offends some but I would like to know why people want everything to be pink?

Not being unreasonable. It drives me bananas.

FFS why do stairgates need to be gendered? And paddling pools? And buggies?

It's up the parents at the end of the day if that's waht they want to dress their dd's in. Can't see the problem.
