I agree with all your points! Just a note, my list of points were not mentioned in the Psychology Today article. My first thought was actually something along the lines of “I am not a monkey … why should this be used to say that I should have wanted to play with ‘girly’ toys?!” I thought it would be more useful, however, to go over the studies and discuss how the Psychology Today article was ignoring some important points. As for the pot, I thought it was obvious that calling it a “feminine” toy was rather silly, but maybe I should have stated that more explicitly. By the way, the second study (Hassett/Siebert/Wallen) defined plushed toys as feminine and wheeled toys as masculine, but I did not read that study to see what exactly it really says.
