We live in a world where colors, toys, clothing, and much more are thrown at boys and girls the second they are born. “Pink is for girls, and blue is for boys.” “Princesses are for girls, and trucks are for boys.” I could go on and on with things that are generally assumed for a certain gender. While many of these go back years and years, more and more is arising. Here, I have collected for you, a number of unnecessarily gender specific products.
1. Ear plugs
2. Tea
3. Kleenex
4. Razors
5. Beer
6. Yogurt
7. Socks
8. "Laptops"
9. Face masks
10. M&Ms
11. Chips
12. Bath time
13. Baby/children's clothes
14. Q-tips
15. The Earth
16. Earphones
17. Crowns
18. Cheese
19. Nurse/doctor kits
20. Tape
21. Laundry products
22. Tinkertoys

In conclusion, I am not actually offended by most of these items, and I understand that some even have good motives. So, if you want, go out and buy yourself some pink ear plugs or girl squirrel underpants. Just do not let these items limit you. Be who you truly are, and enjoy what you enjoy most, regardless of what society may tell you.
