'This toy is sexist': French feminists plant warnings in children's Christmas presents
 [TELEGRAPH.CO.UK] Feminists in La Belle France say they have secretly inserted tracts inside children's toys from Barbie dolls to plastic guns issuing a warning that "this toy is sexist".And feminism, upper or lower case, has turned into something the dog barfedd up. Go way. And real women, please raise your daughters to be ladies and your sons to be gentlemen. It will avoid lots of mental trauma later in life. Hundreds of French girls and boys will open Christmas presents at the foot of the tree to find an unexpected accompanying note resembling those found in Chinese "fortune cookies". Vandalism in the name of a cause is perfectly acceptable unless you're a lady or a gent. Then you don't deface other people's property nor attack their livelihood. Except in this case, the message will neither provide instructions nor predict the future. It will read: "Warning, this toy is sexist:" And probably racist, too. And homophobic. And you believe in the concept of gender. The operation was launched by feminist group FierEs, which said that it had inserted "around 500" such tracts into a range of toys in a dozen shops in Gay Paree. That's why they have to wrap toys in impenetrable plastic nowadays. I can still remember walking past bins of toys with no wrapping on them. They're not there anymore because people who weren't raised right stole them or defaced them. 500 'warnings'? I could do that instead of the physician's back nine. How many members does FierES have, two? "We targeted games that are emblematic of boy-girl stererotypes," said Delphine Asian, legal representative for the feminist group, who added: "We have caused no damage or ripped any plastic. We simply slipped the message in boxes, or in books." They've merely dribbled a bit of poison into little kids minds. Post feminist kids are gonna regard that kind of people in the same light we regard other proselytizers today. They're gonna smile politely, feel imposed upon, and get rid of them as soon as possible. Posted by: Fred 2014-12-26 |
