When I grow up I want to be a Bionicle.
People bashed LEGO for introducing girl-centric sets but arguing that a product line that had been designed around boys for over a decade wasn't already gendered is just a different kind of patriarchy imo.
@u2764 I agree that I want ostensibly feminine Lego sets to exist but the real issue is assigning gender roles to the toylines in ads. Like ideally Mattel should sell Barbies to boys too
