By themselves, Legos are the most gender-open toy in the world. They're a bunch of blocks. You decide what you snap together.

Then, Lego launched a multidecade campaign to make sure that legos were Boys-Only. This eventually culminated in making girl legos, which involve pink and purple and shopping.

As such, the Lego corporation (with no one else, we're sure) moved the entire world from a place where you throw on some fairly gender-neutral clothing (or nudity, which despite being the most gendering thing in the world, is remarkably gender-neutral - everyone can wear it) and play however you like, indoors or outdoors, to a world in which if you're a boy, you wear this and have toys, while if you're a girl, you wear this and pretend your life is worthless, useless, and shallow as hell and your only worth is shopping.

As such, there ends up some strong messages. If you're a girl and you don't want to... y'know, suck... you have to be a boy. If you're a boy, and just really like pink and purple and butterflies and unicorns, you have to be a girl.

(I dunno about that last one. I do pretty fine as is).

With the increase in forcing people into bullshit roles instead of figuring "hey, you're a preschooler, you tell me what you come up with," there will be an increase in people saying "this sucks, I want a new contract." Throw in a few actual transgender youth, a bit of increased visibility, and, well...

...but Lego is responsible for this wave of gender dissonance. 'n since I like pink 'n purple, and don't like mindless worthlessness and a do-nothing life, I guess I'm doubly-transgender... mtftm or ftmtf or something. I'll check the parts later.

Blame Lego for their shame. They're evil. 'n they were doing so well in the 70s...
