More gender silliness; Waterloo was won on the playing fields of Eton ……

.. and the next war will be lost in the “gender neutral” toy department of Harrods.
Crusader Rabbit   "In the pictures the place looks like fairy land, but we don’t live in fairy land we have to grow up and live in the real world which is often quite a harsh place.
Gender neutrality is a modern heresy – boys need to grow to be men and girls to be women. But the moderns think that gender is a “social construct” and we are entirely interchangeable rather than designed to complement one another.
"If boys are not bought up to be men when the going gets tough and masculine virtue is required and found to be a rare commodity it is the end."
Apparently Harrod's has been listening to these people. This author is a college freshman, er...fresh, um, person, which indicates to me "just out of high school"

Satire: Grimace Eliminated by McDonald's, No More Gender Neutral Characters  ".... McDonald’s issued a statement saying that “gender neutral characters are not going to be part of the McDonald’s family in the foreseeable future.” In addition, all gender specific characters will be given updated identity makeovers to enhance gender specific traits." 

Is there no limit to liberal silliness? Sweden’s New Gender-Neutral Pronoun: Hen
"The idea is that the government and society should tolerate no distinctions at all between the sexes. This means on the narrow level that society should show sensitivity to people who don't identify themselves as either male or female, including allowing any type of couple to marry. But that’s the least radical part of the project. What many gender-neutral activists are after is a society that entirely erases traditional gender roles and stereotypes at even the most mundane levels.
