Or is it just women who have to be kind this Christmas?

I've just looked through the men's and they are all plain coloured jumpers. I want those. Not this glittery shit with messages to "be kind".

@GunsNShips

The first men’s jumper linked to is from man who has it all, well known for calling out everyday sexism and the clothing on there deliberately mirrors the usual offering for the opposite sex. Really doesn’t prove the point!

But yes, you did manage to find two random, not very well known, online retailers selling a men’s be kind too.

I just googled "be kind men's jumper"

If people stopped buying this crap then they wouldn't make/sell it would they? I guess some people actually like it.

Well, Klaxon Call to the nifty-knitters and crafters out there - seems there's a market deficit in men's "kindness" jumpers; get knitting and make a mint.

I buy boys jumper and trousers for my girls. It's mainly thin leggings for girls and cardigans that have one button or none... Same for women's clothing really. I want to be warm! I'd love to wear fleece-lined stylish jeans and a jumper not cut to the mid-rif/holes cut from the shoulders/sleeves that only reach the elbow. But that's my own rant. I dislike the bias of slogans too. And pink colouring books filled with unicorns and princess's and blue colouring books filled with rockets and planets. I'll stop here :-D
That isn't the case for girls clothes. Where are you shopping that every item of clothing is inappropriate for girls?

I spent £60 in Primark recently and got two weeks worth of clothes for nursery.

@Stevie6

The problem is women buy this shit - I don't know a man that would 🤷🏻‍♀️.
This - no way would I buy or wear this piece of performative nonsense.

I won't be teaching my DD to "be kind". I'll be teaching her to stand her ground, not take anyone's bullshit, and fight back if anyone comes for her.

Fuck "be kind."

No thank you.
