Give the little boy a Barbie to play with, and he'll pretend that it's a gun.
Give the little girl a toy truck to play with, and she'll talk to the truck.*
My parents were very smart folks, I think. They gave me Barbies and toy trucks both.
I, uh, well, I seem to recall that I used to run over the Barbies with my favorite Tonka truck. (I don't have that truck anymore, but only because my little sister took it to store her Matchbox (tm) cars in. No idea what became of the Barbies.)
What does that say about my gender? ;) Message edited on: 03/10/2005 20:21
