A Simple Yet Brilliant Analysis of Gender Roles.
A little girl named Riley explains her views about what is wrong with marketing and gender roles. She takes less than two minutes but what she says is powerful!
I loved this. This little girl is simply brilliant and way smarter than many adults out here today. She's right why can't girls buy super hero's and boys wear or buy pink toys? It is sad that from a early age,children are trained on what society thinks is acceptable or okay. What happened to kids just playing and having fun, and why does society make it so difficult for kids to be kids by adding gender into the equation?
