What Liberals Demand Parents Do This Christmas is UNBELIEVABLE, And They Are Fighting To Make This A LAW! We all know that the left has never been silent when it comes to how they feel you should raise your children. They have a strong belief that they know better than you when it comes to your kid. This Christmas, liberals are adding a new demand to their long list of complaints. They have started a campaign titled No Gender December. The goal is to stop parents from buying toys that gender stereotype their children, and stop children from playing with gender based toys. From the No Gender December website: Christmas brings a myriad of catalogues and gift guides selling kids toys. Many toy retailers use gendered marketing which influences children and consumers alike, by sending strong messages about the appropriateness of their choices. Color codes, labels and imagery all have a narrowing effect on our childrens perspectives. The article linked to the website talks about how much boys need feminism as well. The writer claims that we need to do more to educate parents and teachers. She is upset about kids being segregated by gender at school, like seating children in boy, girl arrangements or lining up in boy, girl lines. I guess it isnt enough to ban gender bias toys, now they dont even want teachers to refer to your child as a certain gender. It is all part of a new trend liberals have created called gender neutral parenting. Under this new style of parenting, you dont teach your child that they are a boy or a girl, you ask THEM what gender they feel they are at that moment. The whole thing sounds ridiculous to me, but millions of people actually take this stuff seriously. This craziness has gone all the way to the United Nations. Mother Thea Hughess group Play Unlimited started the campaign, which she says has the support of the UN Convention on the rights of the child. These nuts are not just complaining; they are trying to pass legislation to stop gender-based marketing all over the world. Campaigners are calling for blue and pink toy aisles to be scrapped, and federal legislation to stop advertisers showing only boys or girls playing with particular toys. if you stand up to pee your male, if you sit down to pee your female whats the confusion?? There, theyre, their, grammar Nazis, calm down. Everything will be ok. there are boys and girls ,no matter what these liberal ass holes say ,stay away from my kids Liberals own all the ghettos and if a city does not have on they will make one. That shows just how much they know about raising you kids. Just helping the real Liberal with his reading Anne Dear. Calm down. Screw the Liberals, its time to go to war against their entire agenda! Conservatives have sat on the sidelines long enough. Enough is enough and this just crossed that line. Well at least I know how to have a conversation without having to name call and use profanity. Have a nice life And what part of my comment do you object to? Do I not have the right to object to the whole gay agenda being forced on us? Do you feel that I dont have the right to express the opinion that homosexuality is perverted and wrong? Gender neutrality is more of the same gay garbage that is an abomination and an affront to people of nearly all major religions. What they, or you, do in the privacy of your bedroom is your choice. All I ask is that you keep it there, not force it upon the rest of us. Liberalism is a Mental and Social Disease, and should be treated as such. More liberal focus on the trivial? Why dont you address the issue instead of nitpicking? If you wouldnt say something in a real world public place, then it shouldnt be said in a public internet place. Lets be honest about the existence of the internet, it is real. Just because something is posted on the internet rather than said out loud doesnt make discretion any less important. I dont mean to pile on Pamela, but if her children were a little older (Im only guessing at their ages based on her photo), they could easily find her internet history and see what she wrote. Its entirely likely that they wouldnt be able to discern that she was just venting and would then get the message that its okay to round up and kill people just for having different political views. I think that we can all agree that a world where the next generation believes this to be true is not a place that we want to be. It is equally important to consider comments made on the internet as it is comments made in person. Pamela, I appreciate that youre not serious about rounding people up, I just dont see the fact that it was on the internet as an excuse for why its okay to say it even if you dont mean it. I think it is important to note that this whole thing is about neutrality, and affects advertisers and not parents. The point of this is that if Barbies and G.I. Joes are both packaged in the same color (or at least gender neutral colors), then children wont subconsciously get the message that Barbies are for girls and G.I. Joes are for boys. This does nothing to affect how parents raise their children. It actually gives parents MORE freedom to raise their children how they see fit by removing some of the influences that advertisers have over their children. So, to everyone claiming that the left is trying to tell me how to raise my kids, thats just incorrect. Whats going on here is that some people from one end of the political spectrum are trying to give you more power over the advertisers that have managed to wiggle their way into all the other aspects of your life. Please, for all of our sakes, just calm down and think about this for a few moments longer. Wow, just wow. Talk about keeping crappy ideas to themselves in the privacy of their bedrooms. In all fairness, youre right about their being much bigger problems. However, the people mentioned in this article arent telling anybody how to raise their children, theyre telling advertisers how to advertise. Also, just because something isnt in the top 20 list of problems does that mean that nobody should try and fix it? Im pretty sure there are people trying to fix child abuse as well. Advertising messes with peoples kids in much more harmful ways than a bill that doesnt actually change anything for children or parents. This proposed bill will affect what marketing companies would use, not what parents can buy for their children or what children can choose to want. So actually, once you consider whats being proposed, nobody is messing with you or your kids. Its also worth noting that this bill will affect ADVERTISERS and not PARENTS. That, I believe, is the root of Davids comment. The left (as a whole) is not crazy enough to try to push into law that parents cant buy pink stuff for girls, theyre pushing for law that marketing must be gender neutral. The right (in part, not everyone) is being crazy by misrepresenting what is going on and getting people all riled up about it. Not sure if you understand how rights work. I have the right to voice my offense. Thats it. I understand that me being offended means nothing to you, but perhaps it will mean something to somebody else. And by the way, claiming to be middle of the road means that some of the time you agree with the conservative agenda and sometimes you agree with the liberal agenda. It means that youd rather use your own mind when concerning an issue, rather than just toe the party line. Im sorry that you have such a narrow view of the world, it doesnt serve you well, and it doesnt serve the other people who live in this world with you well. You need to be fucking ashamed because youre advocating murdering people by firing squad for having a different political view from you. Youre also (intentionally or not) teaching this view to your children, which means its going to be perpetuated in the world. Thats not just shameful, thats fucking shameful. These stupid perverts keep trying to screw kids and families up. Let the kids play with whatever toys they want, and the gayfascists should keep their crappy ideas to themselves in the privacy of their bedrooms and out of our livingrooms. I ALWAYS bought Gender Neutral things for my son, even 25 years ago . . . . Musical Instruments !!! Tell liberals to F-OFF my kids make a list of what they would like and I base buying gifts from those list no dreaming lib is going to tell me what to buy for my kids! Wow, thats very Christian of you. My son and daughter both played with trucks and Legos. My son never felt a desire to play with a doll, but he did have several stuffed animals as a kid. Both of them turned out pretty damn well, if I do say so. United Nations should be concerning itself with children in this world who are enslaved, getting their genitals mutilated and being bought and sold for sex. not whether or not I buy my daughter a girl toy or not! Stupid, Worthless, POS, alleged organization! Our Constitution is the Supreme Law of Our Land! First, Foremost, Always!! Screw a UN! We dont need em! Jus sayin Anyway* So I guess if a boy wants a dress for Christmas they promote this too right!! This is a bunch of crap Theyre playing with fire when it comes to messing with peoples kids. I checked the site out. And found onaround 1400 individuals that took their pledge. Its like saying theres something wrong with being a boy or girl. They want a metrosexual socieity. Why is it wrong to raise a boy to be a boy? Or heaven forbid raise a girl to be a girl. Theres some twisted minds out in the world. Has so many lost the concept of reality. I was such a tomboy in childhood. Wanted nothing to do with dolls or anything and my momma respected that. I turned out just fine and actually wear pink on occasion (rare). Liberals need to mind their own business. Oh my aching a$$, why dont they just mind their own business and let parents raise their own children. Heres the issue though and why I feel some may be offended, my self included. Im absolutely tired of all of this left-right bs that goes on. Why cant we all get along? Why do we have to stereotype everyone? As a Left, Liberal I think this article, and supposed bill, is absolutely insane! Yet in your comments here, you lump me into the same category as these people, just because Im Liberal? In my humble opinion, that is a true testament to ignorance. And Karen who initiated the above postLoad all Libs into a rocket ship, send them to their own planet!!?? Really? If I was as narrow minded and intolerant, I might suggest we do the same for those who stereotype via ignorance. But then I supposed Id be just like you. Ignorance Pamelaenough said! David, Amen!!! See my post above! So sick of left-right BS! Its so ignorant and petty. As a Liberal parent, I am far from the lunacy mentioned in this article! Im sure if we had time to waste, we could find articles on Right Wing Conservative parents pushing lunacy as well. Dont stereotype the masses based on a few! Quit lumping liberals into one group! Im liberal at times, and conservative on occasion too! What Im sick of is this left-right banter BS that YOU keep stereotyping us into! As a more liberal parent, my daughter is well rounded and quite a well raised kid! And guess whats on HER Christmas list.spy gear, night goggles, a scooter and Air Hogs! Being a Liberal doesnt automatically make us a bad parent, or worthy of being lumped into this lunacy of an article!! Get over yourself and your Right Wing crap! I am so sick to death of liberal lunatics trying to mandate how other people should raise their children. I was and still am a tomboy at heart. Hated playing with any dolls or girlie crap. Still dont like fu fu stuff much at all. Having said that to force people to not have gender toys and call kids boys or girls is outrageous. Just stop it already. Why dont we focus on kids in poverty, or the ones being abused physically or sexually if we are really concerned about childrens welfare. Really what toys they play with isnt a concern that should even be on the top 20 list of problems facing the youth of the world. For the love of God whats next. Im afraid to find out. look up U.N. treaties and you will see for yourself I tried to post the link for you but it is still pending. These people are off their freakin rockers. Tell them all to piss off. What if they asked for for them? Would you then buy it for them? I figured has much! I try never to get offended by what some people say here as some times they are just venting and it does not mean anything for in the real world they would never do such a thing. No it does not mean you stand for nothing. What you stand for is all the good and sane stuff. I do not like abortion but I will not put my nose into others women business. What I want is for all women to have birth control as soon as they think they first want to have sex and if they do not want to tell their Parents for what ever reason so be it, they should be able to get it free if need be, and that will bring down the number of abortions. That is just one thing the middle of the road believe in. I believe Vets should get 100% free medical for life if they were injured in any way in battle and that includes PTSD. Well there is more for the middle believes in some of the right side and some of the left side and plain old common since. Sane people add their own punctuation! The Drama and Grammer Nazis are always a laugh. But like I said sane people get what you write and do not worry their heads over mistakes made. For the grammer mistakes etc. are a nothing problem when it comes to the REAL problems in the world today. Gender Neutral is crap! But giving girls more choices then just the house wife/Mommy toys to play with is short changing our Daughters and our Sons. I hope if your Daughter wants a truck and not a doll or your son wants a doll and not a truck for Christmas you are giving them what they want and not what you think they should want because they are a Girl and a Boy. But I do agree this Gender Neutral crap only confuses them. I am a Great Grand Mother now but I was raised by Parents and Grand Mother too. I was given many dolls and other girl toys for birthdays and Christmas. But I was and still am a Tom boy and my girl toys where like new when my half Sisters where born 10 and 12 years after me so they got them all to play with. If I wanted to play house I used my stuff animals and my real dogs and kitties. In fact I had one cat who would let me dress her up with doll clothes and push her around in the doll pram. I also played with my fave toys which were a bike and skates. I climbed trees, rode down the street on my bike with no hands and all kind of dare devil stunts that you think only boys do. What I am getting at is children will be what they will be if left alone to do what they want or do not want to do. True it is good that toy makers are giving girls more choices like they give boys. I gave my Grand Son and my Grand Daughter both doll strollers for Christmas one year. Now my Grand Daughter is what I call a Girly Girl loving pink and all girl stuff and my Grand Son is all boy ruff and tough she used her stroller to transport her baby dolls around the house he used his to transport is stuff teddy bear running around the house and ramming into his Sisters stroller. I did not get a Tom Boy like me until the one grand Daughter came along all the rest are proper boys who are little speed demons and the proper Girly Girls. Like I said Children will be what they will be but boys and girls should be given both views of the world so they can be what they want to be. Be a girl football player or a boy home decorator, a male nurse or a girl Pilot. All children should be given choices but we should back away and let them choose what they like , what they want. Oh the reason boys line up in one line and girls in another is because if you go and watch the children you will see the boys pushing and picking on each other and laughing and the Girls will be talking to each other and laughing to each other. Girls do not want to be in a line with the boys who push and shove and boys do not want to be in line with the girls who tell on them for picking on them. You got that? So do not force all the liberal thinking on kids let them be what ever they want to be and play with what ever they want to play with, do that and they will be what they want to be. When they pay my bills then i might take suggestions but until that time stay the f#%k out of my life and leave my kids alone they have their own personalitys, we dont want a know it all who wants This is utter stupidity. I raised 2 girls and 2 boys. The girls are now self reliant young women and the boys are self reliant young men.All can cook and all can hunt. All can clean toilets and all can work on their cars. They all played with dolls and all played with trucks but that doesnt change the fact that the girls are girls and the boys are boys. I raised them all that girls can do anything and so can boys just that girls are often more delicate and always more beautiful and are to be treated like the China where the boys are metal camping plates.both serve the same purpose but you dont treat the China like you do the plates I say tell them to kiss my ass, I will buy what I want and when I want for my kids. From what I can see, I do not want my kids being as screwed up as theirs. Look at the liberal side and look at their kids their a mess. To everyone I offended, I was being sarcastic about the firing squad, venting my frustrations and it was not my intention to upset anyone. I dont get whats so offensive about not delineating gender by color or genre of toy. If a girl wants to train with a gun, she shouldnt be forced to sport a Barbie logo on the barrel. And if a boy feels like playing with a homemakers set, why cant he have one that isnt covered in little flowers and shit? Girls shoot guns; boys cook and clean. Neither of them does either of those exclusively, so why should we program them through their Christmas presents to think that way? Wow, that escalated quickly. Not even talking about my feelings on this article. You really want to round people up and kill them? Simply because they think differently than you? Wow It was not my intention to offend anyone, especially a Vet, with my opinions of how I feel about this. Why do I need to be f***ing ashamed, wouldnt ashamed be enough? Ive never believed in the whole boy colors /girl colors thing or toys for boys and toys for girls thing just as Ive never believed in the mans work and womans work crap. Ill let a boy play with a baby doll as much as I will let a girl play with hotwheels and never think twice about it. Grant it I wont give a boy and female doll or a girl a male doll as some dolls are made with genitals these days and then boxes arent always labeled That being said, its no ones business how I raise my kids as long as they are not being abused or neglected. You liberal idiots need to first learn what the word liberal means before you label yourselves. My girls may take out the trash, mow the lawn and learn to change oil as well as my boys do and my boys may wash dishes, vacuum and learn how to cook and sew as well as my girls do but they do know what gender they are and why shouldnt they? My brothers and I played with both hotwheels and dolls as children. its the left that is pushing for itNOT THE RIGHT don`t worry Jessie.some people are going to complain regardless.. Since when did you get the right to not be offended. And by the way when people claim to be middle of the road, that just means youre a liberal who doesnt stand for anything. Im not going to buy my nephew a Barbie doll any more than Id buy a little girl G.I. Joe toys. Theyre kids let them be kids and if you want yours to be gender neutral. As a politically middle of the road disabled Veteran I find this offensive Pamela. I wouldnt want any money raised by killing people simply for being concerned about the children of our nation to contribute to my benefit in any way. You should be fucking ashamed of yourself. I was getting my kid ready for school so I didnt take the time to proofread my comment and anyways I always love how wonderfully irritated people become when my sentences run on and on and on or if I use the wrong too or when I write or too much or when I change from present tense to past tense and back again all in one sentence. Rocket ships are expensive, how about a good old fashioned firing squad. We could sell tickets for a chance to be on the squad and use the money raised to helps Vets or pay it toward our national debt. I thought this was too STUPID to be true but I have found numerous articles and the websites promoting this crap. Just keep breathing while reading her run-on sentence. Makes it easier. At least they could teach the kid punctuation.. i wish we could load all the libs onto a rocket ship, send them to their own planet, and let us have our own sane existence. These people have fruit loops for brains! Whatever is the zaniest, most nonsensical fantasy they can dream up, they decide to label necessary. Put these people in straight jackets and send them where they cannot hurt themselves or the rest of this planet. United Nations Convention on the rights of the child needs more attention gender neutral is the least of its dangers please discuss how they want to undermine our parental rights in the areas of discipline and religion and schooling and how if ratified we could be taken to court and our children could be removed from our care even based on something so small as the child disagreeing with their being grounded! Can we put these fruit loops on their own island, in the middle of the ocean, without a boat? Go to the website and see for yourself, they are lobbing for this to be Law Sometimes the claims of the Right are so crazy you just cant believe them. Show me the bill before I can believe that the Left is really as stupid as that. Remember you are trying to convince people who did not vote for Obama 365 times each election. These people are what is wrong in our country. It has been working for centuries and you want to change it. You see what you change did in 2008. Now we have loonies trying to change this country. SIT DOWN AND SHUT THE HELL UP. I have 2 children. Each gets their treatment as to whatever gender they were born. God made them what they are and thats how they are raised. Gender Neutral only confuses kids in an already confusing world.
