To hate the blue-dinosaurs-cars-trucks-navy-grey thing for baby boys?

[pandarific]

I hate it! My son is a tiny baby - he doesn't know wtf a dinosaur or a car is and couldn't give a shit.

Why do so many tiny baby clothes have to be so depressingly gendered? Even the more modern style supposedly tasteful ones for baby boys are all navy and dark grey, way too adult - why does a month old baby need to be trussed up like that?

I've got some lovely bits from m and s and Debenhams which are very cute without being HEY I'M A BOY I LIKE CARS - stripy ones in light green, yellow, white etc with little shapes and animals all over, so it's perfectly possible. Am I alone in my hatred?

Gendered clothing is also a marketing trick. If people feel they have to get rid of all the 'girls' clothes when they have a boy and vice versa, manufacturers double their profit.

I've noticed non-ethical, cheap, poor quality stuff from supermarkets, primark, mothercare etc is the most gendered of all. Sadly they're contributing to the throw away clothes market, rather than making good quality unisex things that can be passed down to siblings or sold on. Ethical companies like Duns, Frugi, Kite are trying to challenge this.
