You know, I would pay real money to see a commercial where, on Christmas morning, a girl was thrilled to get a Transformer and a boy was thrilled to get a Barbie.

(I think my money is pretty safe.)

That would, in fact, be awesome!

What brings this on?

[greenygal]

Oh, an actual commercial came on with the reverse version. Boy's gleefully playing with his Bumblebee and I'm sitting there going "his sister's going to get something pink, isn't she?" Because of course that is what all boys and girls want!

Oh yeah. This is why the nephews are getting Owly books for Christmas -- and probably Free to Be You and Me on DVD with songbook.

[greenygal]

Ah, Free to Be. "A doll, a doll, William wants a doll..."

*sighs* I wish my parents had given me a Transformer for Christmas. I had to wait for my brother to be born.

That is sad. My parents bought me an Optimus Prime for Christmas! And a Voltron, earlier. I love my parents.
