Believe me, they are an awesome family and this child wrote the letter herself because she felt the sex- discrimination/injustice already at her young age. She's quite a kid. Her mom was appalled at the vitriol response of strangers when the letter happened to go viral. Little girls deserve to explore and engage and live their dreams every bit as much as little boys. Hope Lego gets the message!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-26871122.post-23231109779011376902014-02-04T00:27:27.065-08:002014-02-04T00:27:27.065-08:00Had a raging debate during the game with a woman t...Had a raging debate during the game with a woman that was defending the pink isle Legos and claiming a 7 year old girl who wrote to complain was just writing what her parents told her to write. And then she thought the girl should just put the girl people from the pink isle Lego kits in with the blue boy isle Lego kits. She could NOT wrap her mind around the concept that the "boy" kits should just be made with a mix of boy and girl people because a lot of kids like to imagine going on adventures...girls and boys. I hope this new company works out big time!TheWeyrd1https://www.blogger.com/profile/15064826219629525527noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-26871122.post-3059183151642883532014-02-03T08:55:10.964-08:002014-02-03T08:55:10.964-08:00I love this ad, and voted for it to win.
