Re: Gender-Specific Toys and Tech Community Center Geeks' Lounge by jwenting nope, just stating facts. I'm dead against forcing "gender neutral" anything.

Although I like to think of myself as somebody who takes 'equality', gender and otherwise very seriously, I also have doubts about gender-neutrality with regard to a number of things. Neutrality does not necessarily mean equality.
