Give up trying what? (you've lost me lol... not that it's hard to do that)

All I'm saying is that I think this whole 'avoid usuing genders with toys because insults' thing is stupid.

Children will be called names no matter what.

I think it's time that we stop trying to change society, and try to change ourselves.

Teach your children that names are just names. They mean nothing. Teach them from a young age that people are always going to be horrible.

This is all just my opinion of course...

But what I've come to realise over the past 5 years or so, ever since being bullied, since dealing with a suicidal member of the family at home and so on, is that only you can control how you feel. Not anyone else. Don't let someone else's idea of how they see something, affect you.

The sooner people learn to think like this, the happier they will be.
