Just spent the day going through our old toys for organizing the basement. I feel like I deserve extra credit for the gender chapter of my sociology course 😭
#tons of engineering and science toys/kits even an electronic kit with copper wires that needs cutting pliers (somehow rated 8+?)#and just… looks at my bratz sewing machine#my pink and purple pottery wheel. tons of shitty sparkly and bedazzle craft kits that I later stripped for parts and tossed#dolls and dolls and dolls. babies that cry until you feed them. ‘this advanced electronic doll is your new bff! u have to take care of it!’#all homemaking stuff.#rn I’ve been really wanting lego. it’s super expensive to buy :( we used to have a lot of it too#but my older sibling had inherited it and hated sharing things with me so I never got to play with it#and you don’t buy little girls lego. i had some megablocks but when it’s huge and pieces limited you can’t do much with it#still used it a ton tho. my little cousin has the big tub of lego now it was originally his dad’s growing up#I never had those mythology books either. I think they’re still on the shelf in my older sibling’s room#I think I would have loved those#my favourite childhood toys were this imaginext battle castle set and these Rescue Heroes action figures#both of those were my sibling’s but sometimes I was allowed to play with them#the castle is still down there! maybe I’ll be allowed to have it and turn it into#something for miniatures/set for action figures 👀#maybe I’ll use some of that box art/instructions for reference idk but it’s pretty in your face gender roles
