I wonder how popular these dolls will be?

[Ms Diddles]

I hope they do ok!

Last Xmas I was shopping for the children of various friends, and I was genuinely shocked at how gendered things still were.

The girls stuff was just a sea of pink, asinine, princess s**t and baby dolls.

The boys stuff was way more interesting (well, that's where all the sharks and dinosaurs were!)

That was in 2018!!!!!!

I retired to the pub in dismay!

This 'build your own doll' stuff is all very well, as long as it's not taken to extremes :

There's big bucks to be made in this gender inclusivity lark.

$44 for a plastic doll, two hair-pieces and a change of clothes?

Puhleeze!

Sowing the wind and reaping the whirlwind.

Gender Inclusive --> Gender-Free ---> Void of Gender ----> yet another manifestation of "polished" politically-correct post-modern "nothingness" as capitalism's latest "cultural" (lack of) statement, having finally replaced as the "old-school" 20-th cent cold-war capitalism with its cultural patriarchy and "macho slick" aesthetics.

Erm, yeah. That's what I was going to say....

"All-inclusive" capitalism is even more profitable . Diversity up for sale.
