Sexism, Have We Changed At All?


Recommended Posts

Inspired by one of these doll commercials I just saw...

We all know back in the day women didn't get equal rights...I.E - Not allowed in goverments, not allowed to vote etc....But now we've gotton a new version of it...Dolls are still shoved into girls faces and GI Joe In boys, but what if a boy wants a doll? Why he'd be like a outcast or called a flamer etc...Have we changed at all? I don't think so...My opinion is we change the old ways and make new ways to be sexists...Or atleast some of us...

I.E - I am predujice against ONE thing..Sexists...

People who are intolerant of other people's cultures,

And the dutch!"

Lol, just wanted to share. Dutch people, please take no offense, these are not my words :P

Now back to the topic:

You can't destroy sexism. It is eternal, because some men believe that they are superior to women because of:

Bible - Eve created out of the rib of Adam to entertain him.

Eve was also the one to fall to Satan first.

The market is full of sexism. But a few companies tried to change that by putting out non-sexist dolls and puppets, hoping that it would help this problem. Well a new problem arose...no one bought them. There were no girls or boys screaming for those toys, which were well advertised, and no parents spending money on them. So it flopped. So perhaps it isn't sexist, but something in our genes that makes the children (2-6 years of age) who they are depending on sex? Or perhaps it depends on the way the parents raise their kids? And if so, could they really have that much influence at that young of an age?

Lol, that didn't sound one bit sarcastic... You do know, that in writing you actually have to express sarcasm differently than with words. We can't hear your voice.

hmm k i guess you're right... i apologize
