You GO, Little Girl!!!

[DeathToTheOil]

I wholeheartedly agree.

[whathehell]

1. Wow!....What an astute and observant little girl!

I predict great things for this kid!

2. Love Riley. Best Christmas video I've seen this year. Posted to my facebook.

It does my heart good to see her thinking this through.

15. I love the color pink and am a straight male, but I think

the issue people have with this is that it is forcing a gender stereotype on girls and limits personal taste preference. Now, the Care Bears are cool, because they have a spectrum of colors and personalities to pick from.

But I agree, it's sad that the color pink is maligned/associated with gender stereotyping.

5. Hug Riley. At your age I felt the same way.

Stay mad, stay smart.

6. Some children are encouraged to ask questions

Some children are discouraged from asking questions. I think that's the 'great divide.'

[usrname]

14. Yup

Difference between progressives and conservatives.

Progressives are encouraged to think and ask questions. Conservatives are discouraged from asking questions and toe the party line.

7. Merry Christmas, Riley

When I was your age, I had a favorite baby doll.

[PeaceNikki]

8. Yay! Very different than the LEGO boob thread in GD.

Interestingly this video also linked on the FB page of the group behind that petition (which is really about this type of thing, not boobs, DU).

9. She kind of reminds me of my youngest niece

Notice she's playing with HotWheels. She chose these to play with instead of the pink stuff she got.

And tell it like it is little Riley in the OP video.

10. Cute>

Though she's obviously been coached!

[ScottLand]

25. Coaching's OK. The difference IMO is between

saying "Why do YOU think that is?" as opposed to "Nice little girls need to buy the pink stuff, right, sweetie?"

11. i'd give anything

to have a drink with this kid's parents.

[burrowowl]

23. I don't think so

I was 3 when I bitched about getting a hugh doll. I much preferred the the Lyonel Train I got at 2.

[burrowowl]

12. I didn't like pink stuff

either! You rock little Girl!

20. Love that kid!!! n/t

[valerief]

22. What a hot ticket! She's already aware of gender molding! nt

[bitchkitty]

24. Smart as a whip and mega cute. n/t

[s-cubed]

26. When my son was about 2 his favorite color was pink.

He had 2 pair of hot pink footed pajamas. I'll make sure his little girl gets "boy" stuff as well as girl stuff. But I suspect she'll have a mind of her own, like Riley.
