That's where I am on the topic. Despite my name, I am indeed a stereotypical hacker (overweight, beared, white and male). I have two daughters, the eldest of which loves the Lego set I've passed down to her. Not once has she complained that there are only a few pink blocks in the box - and come to think of it, I don't think I complained when I somehow acquired a "girl" set when I was younger; I just added them to the box. They're blocks, not genitalia. My daughter shoots guns, plays with Legos, and competes in a ballet competitions and pageants. Later today, we're going to make home-made sugar rockets. Time and weather permitting we'll take my Jeep up in the mountains this evening and launch a few. I think what these guys are doing is admirable, but in the end implying that girls' toys have to be pink and cute is nothing more than a complex version of "separate but equal".
