Search Results: gifts for dad

Basically, like traditional toys meant for boys or girls.
Do you think that children should be allowed to play with whichever toys they please? Is it only ok for certain ages to do this? Do you think it's only ok for girls to play "boy" toys and boys should not play "girls" toys? Is it ok for either as long as they're not colored for "boys" (like in blue) or girls (like pink/purple)? If you have kids, or are planning to, would you only force them to play their respective gender toys?

I had this guy come in the bar and I asked him how his Christmas went. Not well apparently.

His wife bought an E Z Bake oven for their nephew. The mother didn't care so much, but the dad freaked out. He said that it was "gay" and that he didn't want his son playing with "girl" toys. The aunt asked if it would be better if it were a different color (not pink) and he said no. It's a "gir's" toy.
The little boy is 5 and in kindergarten. He has a little girlfriend and they play house a lot. Sometimes he "cooks" for her, and sometimes she "cooks" for him. They have tea parties together, and they hold hands. Typical kindergarten bf/gf behavior.
The father likes that he has a girlfriend, but doesn't like him play cooking, play cleaning, and especially not the tea parties. The little boy thinks they're fun. He's not being "forced" by his girlfriend, as at home he will even play tea parties with his aunt (who bought the EZ Bake oven for him). He likes "boy" toys as well, like cars or robots or whatever, but he likes "girl" toys a bit more.

The dad took it away from him and gave it to his daughter. She doesn't seem to interested in it because she's like 12 already. He's still crying about it and I feel bad that some people are so insecure as to not let their kids have fun :/

So what do y'all think? Would you react the same way?
