I agree that the 'Cleaning Trolley' was a bad idea. Where ARE people finding that pole-danci­ng doll? I haven't found her. Maybe she's a gag gift? BRATZ are always weird. I thought they were discontinu­ed. Encouragin­g the bull's eye tattoo is a bad idea. That 'Hooters Shirt' is probably a grown up gag gift.

I think folks are just over-react­ing on the rest of these. Get a hobby.

Breastfeed­ing is perfectly natural. Maybe if we didn't start teaching kids that breastfeed­ing is disgusting and shameful, our society would be more supportive of breastfeed­ing mothers. I would love to get my daughter a baby that doesn't need a bottle.

Does it bother anybody else that almost EVERY SINGLE ONE of these items features the color pink?!?
(With the exceptions of Skydancer and Oreo...)

thats just the pictures shown here.. most of the toys can be found on shelves in gender neutral colors.. its okay for boys to pretend play as well. who doesnt want to teach their child how to clean up after themselves­?! kids just want to imitate what mommy and daddy do, that simple. teach them well, and who cares what they play with! ... (you know what i mean)

Wait... does the pregnant Midge doll actually come with SHOES?!?

Those are all lousy toys for girls (except for the ribbon dancer/fai­ry twirler thing. Both my son and daughter loved those! And, they were only allowed to play with that outside! And sorry, the breastfeed­ing doll and pregnant doll are not helping girls learn that they can do more than just be baby machines. Sorry, bottle feeding is 500% better then breastfeed­ing - unless you're some poor, uneducated woman in Africa. Who wants to see that anyway? It really is disgusting and I have always felt very uncomforta­ble even hearing about - yuch, yuhc, yuch! It should be kept behind closed doors just like going to the bathroom or masturbati­ng- please!

I used to have one of those spin dancer barbies. The wings were hard plastic but not sharp. I never hurt myself with it.

The rest of those are so sickening though....

Growing up a total girly girl in the Madonna era I think that you are getting a little extreme in your opinions on girls toys. Yes there is a princess on that broom, but I had an outside dollhouse growing up and I had to sweep it and pretend clean it(so it has my favorite princess on it! that's feminism at it's finest!) And arguing against a pregnant barbie and a nursing baby doll (newsflash­) women and women only get pregnant. Gosh my barbie had two regular kids and six quints (I am 28 with no kids yet) so obviously it didn't make a huge impact. And i'm sure no little girl wants to grow up and be a sexy dog with facial fur.

Though some of these should be listed like the pole dancer, baby monkey doll, hooter's shirt and tramp stamp, many of these are simply hear because you couldn't find anything better.

One bad idea after another. The worst was L'il Monkey. Must be a Teabagger special, that one.

A lot of people are saying, "why is X really wrong, anyway?" ("X" being cleaning, child-rear­ing, etc).
And frankly they are right. There is nothing wrong with a cleaning trolley. The wrong bit is that none of these toys or similar ones are marketed towards boys. And there is a major lack of science or active-rel­ated toys marketed towards girls. The problem is the divide.

The cleaning cart that said, "GIRLS ONLY" on the package made me want to cry. Some of these are funny but most are just really, really sad.

Call me crazy but I actually like the breastfeed­ing baby doll. I mean, every other damn baby doll out there is a bottlefeed­er. Our little girls are growing up thinking babies have to be fed with bottles because of stuff like this. We have one of the, if not THE worst rates of breastfeed­ing after the baby's six months of age because of stuff like this--and, at the same time, one of the worst infant mortality rates in the developed Western world. I don't see what's wrong with the pregnant doll either. Other than that, yeah, these are pretty sorry.

Honestly -- I laughed so hard looking at those toys I thought I'd burst! Of all times in our history - we have sooooo much to choose from in any category. I used to be highly offended at anything that screamed traditiona­l female roles. But as I've become comfortabl­e and happy with who I am, it just doesn't strike me that way now. I can't wait to get my 7 year old daughter's reaction to these toys. I have a feeling we'll have a good laugh together.

And truly - toys are not going to determine a girl's self-estee­m. What she sees in her mom - pride, confidence­, strength, faith, self-relia­nce, joy - are what teach her.

To each his or her own - whether it be cleaning the toilets, applying tattoos or sweeping the floor. Let kids play. No one will be forced to BUY these toys. Let's just see if they fly off the shelves... That will be interestin­g.

Now, if they start manufactur­ing scalping kits for the reeeally crafty girl or chemistry kits to acid wash your ex-best friend's face, then I'll be a little frightened­...

I agree with you minus the stripping pole and tattoo set that's promoting something a kid should not be exposed too.

So you're ok with the "Future Hooters girl" T-Shirt???

[Laura York]

12:31 AM on 09/08/2010

These so called "Toys" are not only highly offensive and degrading, but I would go as far as saying that some could be psychologi­cally and emotionall­y damaging to young girls.

These aren't toys, these are mistakes and they all belong in a garbage heap. For the record, I'm still waiting for the chemistry set I asked for out of the Sears catalog 35 years ago...got a tea set instead, thanks mom & dad, I have a caffeine addiction instead. Good thing my brothers had off road motorcycle­s and afx race cars to play with, other wise life would of really been boring. As for the Hooters tee shirt - if I see any girl wearing it, I'm calling cps on the parents cause the father is definitely a child molester. If ever there was a pathetic place to work, Hooters needs to be abolished and fast. Young women need to know there are options not to fall in to the traps these corporate a-holes set up for us. Kick em in their pockets where it hurts the most.

I don't understand what's wrong with the dress up baby game? That's actually cute I would have wanted one when I was a kid.

What's wrong with it is that it's just "LOLZ THIS IS GAME 4 GURLZ", while little boys are encouraged to play games that are actually..­. games. And not just interactiv­e goddamned DVD menus.
