Products That Are Pointlessly Gendered

Gender Underneath It All: Skeleton PJs

Talk about getting the kids in on the game right off the bat. This one irked many Twitter users because of the fact that the products were aimed at kids and are essentially programming kids to think of each other differently based on gender right off the bat. Here we have two pairs of skeleton pajamas, one for boys which are black and one for girls which are pink. Do skeleton pajamas really need to be gendered? Interestingly, at one-point pink was associated with being a masculine color. Pink was thought to be the lighter version of red which was considered manly and was thus meant for boys.
