"Starting in January, California will require major retailers in the state to include gender-neutral toy sections in their stores. The new sections won't be allowed to be marketed to just boys or girls but rather must include a “reasonable selection” of toys that could be marketed to children of either sex."

Wow, just wow. The weirdness/cultural perversity from this state is beyond my comprehension.

All children's toys should be considered gender neutral, meaning it's fine for any child to enjoy regardless of their gender. Toys for children should not be rigidly classified as either boys or girls toys. They're for any child that is drawn to the type of play offered by that toy item. No new sections or aisles required.

I don't see a need for this. What's the difference between a "doll" and an "action figure"?

My take on this, as well.

No doubt. Theyre making assumptions (breaking woke law) with this new law.

Once upon a time, long, long ago, there was a state called California. You could be anyone you wanted to be, free of overreaching governments that were always telling you what to do. Individuals flocked to it so they could be who they wanted to be and live how they wanted to live.

How things have changed! California has become one of the most overreaching and meddlesome governments in the whole country. Nowadays, people flock OUT of California, not to it. This is such a ridiculous law, and is just designed to coddle to the far left, politically correct nuts. I am one of the most liberal people one could ever meet, and liberal means letting people be who they want to be and leaving them alone to do such. It doesn't mean requiring them to have a particular point of view, that whole thing is very Orwellian. The state knows better than you, so do it, or else.

The reason I say it's just a grandstand move is because there is no requirement to have this ridiculous store isle be of any particular size. So a miniature isle measuring 1 foot by 1 foot and consisting of one G.I. Joe and one Barbie could be a store's entire "gender neutral isle".

Do toy stores even have "Boys" and "Girls" sections?

(I honestly don't know.)

Just another Nanny State Progressive law brought to you by the future DNC Candidate for President and the Ultra-Progessive Legislature of California.

I never saw signs that said only boys can buy toys in a certain section, and I have never heard of a store that refused to sell a doll to a boy.

Where of course they feel the need to tell stores how to merchandise their sections. Because I guess someone who was looking for a doll, or an Erector set wouldn't know where to look.

Glad to see that Newsom has his priorities in order.

No. ALL toys are available to anyone and everyone. And it's always been that way.

Social engineering thru legislation - continuing the neo-Marxist agenda for destroying established normalcy of gender.

Smash the oppression of toys for boys and girls!
