Hi TenTonTruck from one of my all time favourite songs I'm sorry if my posts here gave you the impression that the images you've posted aren't welcome! They are, and very much appreciated too :) We really want as much discussion / posts / interest as possible, from as many people as possible, about the issue of gender segregation in toys.
What I meant to convey (and didn't manage to, particularly well) is that the discussion on facebook and on MN is bound to include discussion about the colour pink, about children's clothes, about multiple versions of the same toys being made because it suits the manufacturer if they 'can't' be handed down from big sister to little brother, etc. And it's good that we might prompt those discussions, because it is all related and all equally important.
But in order to not lose our focus on the actual ask we are making on retailers right now, I think that those of us invested enough in the campaign to be organising it on this thread (and that includes you now, TenTon) should be mindful that we keep bringing the discussion back to the labelling of toys (by words, colour coding of shop aisles, and in-store advertising) by retailers, in their shops, on their catalogues, and on their websites.
Only because we've agreed to target that first, not because we want to ignore (or stifle discussion about) the many other ways in which boys and girls are sold the message that their interests should be predetermined by their gender.
