Katie148: Agreed. Similar to what I wrote in my post, I do believe media pressures children to have narrowly defined roles and interests, and also pressures them to grow up quickly. When I was younger, I loved videogames, action figures, and other toys not associated with little girls. I also loved stuffed animals, dolls, sparkles, glitter, and other things one might assume are very girly. It is a shame when people (or society on a whole) think there's something wrong with that sort of thing. Open up your heart to a bit of the best of both worlds! [img]biggrin.gif[/img]
