This is a lot to read but i found it useful, helped me a lot, did not go into detail as much as i would of liked on the child side of how you are brought up with toys and how you were dressed would effect decisions you make in later life, but think everyone should give it a read.

    This article on 'Work that matters' shows how some companies are attempting to step away from sterotypicaly gendered toys via role reversal. There's a brilliant one of a little boy (we assume) dressed up as spider man pushing a toy pram.

    I wonder if the advertising approach boosted their sales or not. Or is it just a good lesson to kids?
