Well, obviously you're reading this stuff, which negates your claim of "nobody."

Nobody's actually reading this stuff man. You're not fooling anybody by saying you've laid multiple smackdowns; there's just me here. I guess the prior comment, where you demonstrated your ignorance of the word "fascist" (which, judging by the fact you're still confusing it with government interference, you still…

Aw, do I have to? You made it feel so inviting.

I don't think "made by the same people" is actually the definition of sequel.

Except that's wrong.

Thanks for demonstrating your loose grasp upon the English language. In this context it means a totalitarian intolerance of free expression:

There's this thing on your keyboard called the "backspace key".

You sound like somebody badly regurgitating a joke which they didn't get in the first place.

Wow... you're sticking with Sony? You really are a mess of cognitive biases, dude.

I don't see any anorexic Barbies. Only thin, athletic ones. That's a "healthy ideal".

Wow, I'd never heard of that. I guess that deals a bit of a blow to the "everything is the conspiracy of the patriarchy" feminists out there.

Mm, not sure about that. I had a shit tonne of Lego Technic and I know some of my friends did, too. There's also things like K'Nex which are mainly about creative construction and don't do much branding, yet stay financially viable.

That was referring to the "Disney Princes" aspect, not really toys. Jezebel gets pretty worked up about the whole beautiful princess thing, but they never seem to notice how the same tropes pretty much always apply to the prince charmings, too.

That's about right, yep. Came up on my Gawker feed, I pointed out the glaring discrepancy, I left. You didn't address it, by the way.

I don't know, I think Lego is actually pretty popular. The ratio of the number of kids who prefer Lego, to the number who prefer tanks and soldiers... seems pretty balanced to me. As in, the kind of proportions you would expect just from their personalities.

Outrage is all you can practically do. Asides from the fact that legislation for doll appearances sounds horrifically authoritarian, how on Earth is it going to be enforced in practice? Force toy makers to fulfil a quota of ugly, fat toys?

I don't recall being "taught" by toys. In fact I distinctly remember never liking all of the combat dolls and stuff. I never felt like I was obliged to like them. I just thought they were silly, and that was fine. I preferred creative toys that actually did something, like construction toys. That's just because of my…

From my perspective, it's simply because I don't care. I'm not even mildly annoyed about it. I have better, less pathetic things to do with my time than complaining about unrealistic or negative stereotypes of men perpetuated through cartoons and toys. It's not like this is a state of affairs which is ever going to…

You realise that male dolls are exactly the same right? Unrealistic ideal musculature and perfect masculine faces?
