http://www.telegraph.co.uk/finance/newsbysector/retailandconsumer/10288057/Toys-R-Us-to-stop-gender-biased-marketing.html Interesting. I don't know that I agree that having boys toys and girls toys is a bad thing, but I can see why TRU is taking this approach. Boys like roleplaying toys like kitchens and whatnot just as much as girls like playing with robots and diecast cars. But... The look in the girl's eyes tells me all I need to know about why giving toy guns to a girl is a bad idea. Look at the cold, calculating stare... she's about to snipe someone in the back of the head, and disappear into the darkness before anyone knows what happened. Boys with Nerf guns run around crazy, firing off darts like a Cobra Viper. Girls with Nerf guns are training to be the next Solid Snake. You won't know they're there until you get shot with a suction cup dart. Just kidding... mostly... ;)
