(JCB) Chapter 7: Toys/ Gender, Sex and Sexuality

This is really interesting because kids should like what they want and it shouldn’t matter their gender to play with certain toys. The story I read at the beginning with the mothers friend telling her that she should get her daughter the pink stuff animal than the blue one. This mad me really mad because the child was a baby and didn’t know the difference and the color shouldn’t matter at all. Some children are born intersex so they are both so do do they have to like one certain toy. The answer is no they should like whatever they like just like a boy and girl child should like whatever they want. I think overall this toy and gender thing is socially constructed and it shouldn’t be.
