Growing up in a quiet Jewish neighborhood of the Bronx, I was about as far removed as could be from the gun culture. But as a five or six year old, I would beg my parents to take me to visit the toy store a few blocks away so that I could gaze longingly in the window . . . at a toy six-shooter.
I share my story because I think it's typical. Of course there are exceptions, but from time immemorial the great majority of little boys have been drawn to toy weapons while little girls have largely been attracted to objects familial and domestic. At least until now. According to Yahoo Finance reporter Jen Rogers, who in an article entitled "Toys and gender: How things are changing this holiday season" recently wrote "if you think Barbies are for girls and Nerf weapons are for boys, you must be living in 2014."

Yahoo Reporter Claims Gender Preferences In Kids’ Toys Are Passé.

What’s the name of that haunted high-school series of dolls, with a “Boo-York” story theme about New York? No way boys want anything to do with that.
Where’s the trans-sex dolls?
The big thing in Brooklyn was graduating from the paper-roll-type cap gun to the ring-cap cap guns. I think the model I had was the suzy-Q. (memory fuzzy... perhaps that was just the name of an extinct desert cake)
Why don’t we let each child make their own choice as to preferences on toys? Or is that passe?

My granddaughter has both a toy kitchen and workbench and seems quite comfortable with both.
When the lines of male-female are blurred (roles destroyed)-—then you have exaggeration of the male/female attributes.
Concepts that are embedded in young childhood should be of the Natural Family (mommy/daddy) and that understanding of interaction between male and female-—so you can understand Reality (Laws of Nature) and self and how you “fit” into the world.
No grasp of Reality occurs in artificial environments (which the Marxists want) so they can “educate” children to believe that the abnormal is normal-—Slavery is Freedom. (All socialism rots the soul-embeds dependency).
It is easy to warp perceptions of babies when they do not have a loving family unit—of male/female. They are removed from Reason-—that which makes us in the image of God. They will not be able to understand the Design of the World (Reality)-—(God’s Design of the body).
Confused children (who can’t understand male/female roles in the culture) become irrational and unable to “think” like the Founders of the USA-——the Age of Reason//Modern Science worldview-—abstract critical thinking is not possible without a Classical Education—or growing up in the Natural Family unit where male has particular role—as do women—which fits their natural instincts.
Tribal minds-—are communal—ARTIFICIAL— environments-—group think is what results-—excludes the ability to “think outside the box”.
Little harem boys in Afghanistan will never “think” like a Christian-—they can’t. They are incapable of assimilation and a Christian worldview of individualism/self-initiative. They are objects-—dependents—socialistic for life. It would be a miracle to change their embedded worldview.
We need our children to return to Classical Education—which is the ONLY true “education”-—which gives children the TOOLS to think critically. (pre-John Dewey books and pre-Marxist/Freudian literature-—for children.
When little children are hyper sexualized like today (TV/Schools) they are warped-—they embed the desires and attitudes of sick, mentally ill people. They become irrational-—removed from Reality— thinking people are animals to be used and tossed. It is a Marxist/Darwinian/Malthusian worldview which is being pushed 24/7 to puke out little non-thinking snowflakes for a NWO.

When I was in grade school, the girls liked to play with jump ropes. This was at a time when horse operas dominated TV, and noting the boys’ tendency to play cowboys, the teacher made certain that they had no access to the ropes.
These people are full of it. Watching a little boy gravitate to the trucks and cars and hammers, etc. is a joy. It is so natural. Likewise, a little girl will gravitate to a baby doll and cuddle it.
This is Mother Nature - and we all know ‘it is not good to fool Mother Nature.”
We are living Rudyard Kipling’s great poem, “The Gods of the Copybook Headings”
My oldest son had a doll given to him by a woman who thought it would be nice to teach him young to care of a baby as a father. He carried it around by the hair. He never bonded with in a fatherly role and I never pushed him to do that.
Later he took it’s body parts and made it into a robot with a doll’s head and arms. He attached the arms and head to a small trash can that he put on a remote controlled truck chassis. It also had lights that flashed for eyes. Of course, his dad helped. It was his favorite toy. He liked to roll it out and scare the company with it.
