It just never ends...

So?
Like I told VinceB when he was whining about my posts, if someone posts your personal info and I see it, I'll delete it and ban that person. I knw you can't discern the difference between messing around and doing the right thing, but I can.

no you act like a kid.. you get upset and you have to show your mod power Just embarrassing man.

all the GI Joes are together and all the Barbies are together.  But they both may be in the doll isle. The boy dolls are not necessarily with the boy trucks and the boy balls. Girls sports equipment is with the boys sports equipment, not with the barbie dolls.  As stated in the article, Target will simply no longer have a big sign overhead saying boy toys and girl toys, nor color code their isle blue and pink.

I'm guessing all the confused weirdos like yourself will be shopping at Targay from now on.

Until you deservedly die of AIDS, of course.

Two developmental psychologists (who were husband and wife) made observations of their own kids regarding gender stereotypes. These observations were done by them in the 70's, before all the PC stuff. The husband and wife attempted to raise their son and daughter from an early age in an a "neutral" home: meaning, they would not decorate their sons or daughters room according to specific colors or buy them specific toys according to their sex (boys get trucks, girls get dolls). Again, this had nothing to do with PC, as this "study" was conducted in the 70's (it wasnt really a study, just observations made by a husband and wife about their kids). The husband and wife specialized in researching gender roles and sterotypes, etc. They soon began to realize that, despite their attempts to raise their children (a boy and girl) in a neutral home, their son still preferred blue and still chose trucks, and their daughter preferred pink and chose dolls. Obviously, this was not a controlled study, but it does indicate that perhaps there is something very inherent that predisposes boys and girls for certain colors and toys. Via research, we already know there are distinct differences between the ways that men and women process language, emotions, cognitions, etc. But we also know via research, that both boys and girls play with toys that are made for both boys and girls. Growing up, I played "house" with the girls on my block--played with teapots and shit like that. It had no negative effect on me, besides posting on getbig. At the end of the day, its probably best to just let your child choose the toy he or she wants to play with, instead of forcing them to play or not play with a specific toy.

At the end of the day, your kid is going to pick out the toy he or she wants to, independent if its in the boys or girls section. Its what they are interested in.

No.  Tim Fogarty knows better.

Really? Out of all the shit talking posts thrown at chaos, what have I deleted? Who have I banned? Seems like there's only one poster here throwing a temper tantrum, acting like a kid cause he was removed as the first poster for abusing his ability to mod his own threads, then runs to his "friends" to convince them not to post in that thread anymore and start a new one "out of chaos' reach"......lol.

You were a lot less of a bitch when you were just a regular poster.

[Coach is Back!]

If your information isn't from online (internet and television) or reading about it, where do you get it? Do you hang out in the kiddies toy department at Target, interviewing the kids there?

Easy there old guy. I was talking about politics in general.

[Chacka]

 lie, intentionally mislead

You blatantly do both.

[chaos]

After careful consideration of your post and your proven deep love and commitment towards getbig, I've decided to take your advice......and shove it up your ass.

These people you talk off are well above your intelligence, secondly the fact that people posted in another thread on another board says it all about you being..well just you.

People posted in another thread on another board cause they didn't want to hear your shit, true story. I'll let you figure out which ones PM'd me.

Not as many as me you sexy beast.

No wonder why kids are going to be more screwed up than ever. I wonder how many customers actually complained....none?

And in the same reality few years earlier: " The monkey research, conducted with two different species in 2002 and 2008, strongly suggested a biological explanation for children's toy preferences. In recent years, the question has become: How and why does biology make males (be they monkey or human) prefer trucks, and females, dolls?" Short version: When baby monkey has chance to choose from children's toys, female monkey will take a doll and male monkey will take a car. What this means is that this modern stupidity is against nature, and therefore potentially harmful at it's best. Instead of giving children possibility to choose, we make choosing more difficult by hiding gender labels, which has been as a guide from beginning of the mankind. Gee, I wonder why homosexuality is spreading so fast..

Your reading comprehension is a bit off. I neither said nor implied what boys and girls would be cool playing with.

Who determines what is a normal kid, you?

Like I said kids want what toys their playmates have. When my son was a little kid, he was fascinated with the small army figures. He had several dozen of them which he'd use to set up dioramas in the back yard during the summer. In the winter he'd move them back to his room and do the same. My daughter liked dolls and stuffed animals, her room was full of them. As parents, we didn't direct our kids to want those toys, their friends might have though.

Humanity, society, culture, history, tradition, family, statistics, etc. You truly have no understanding of "normal"?

[TheShape.]

It country is finally going den the drain or toliet rather, it's one big diarrhea dump swirling around being sucked into the sewer of liberal political correct shit.

[timfogarty]

No.  Tim Fogarty knows better.

You really don't get it, do you?  I agree completely with the study from the 70s, and with people comments here about their kids and grandkids.  Most boys will gravitate towards boy toys, and most girls will gravitate towards girl toys.  But most is not all. 

Do you want a child to feel shamed by a department store sign telling them the toys they like are not for their gender?

is it ok to not be normal? Do you want everyone to like the exact same things, feel the exact same things, think the exact same way?

But its not the departments stores "job" to dictate if a child should or should not feel uncomfortable. Department stores are there for one reason: to sell merchandise.

Its the parents job to explain to their children why its okay to play with toys that a girl may also play with or vice versa. The parents can easily sit down with the child and explain why there are signs indicating boys and girls toys, and that its okay if a boy wants a toy from the girls section or vice versa.

Just my 2 cents.

[Coach is Back!]

Tim, here's a fact. As much you'd like to think that gay, blacks and the transgendered are being discriminated against, they're not any more discriminated against than anyone else. I don't care (as most) if you're gay or transgendered. That being said why does the gay community feel it's their duty to push it on EVERYONE? I've told you this before. I have gay friends that can't even figure this out. For the record, unlike some on here I've never called you a name or disrespected your position.

[The Ugly]

Where did I suggest otherwise? Is it ok to be normal? Is it ok to admit abnormal exists?

Funny, seems your people are the ones who want everyone to think the exact same way.
