I don’t think it would. I’d imagine genderless parenting will get more popular, people will work out that a high percentage of children will want to play with plastic kitchens, remote controlled cars, dollies, and Legos all in the same week, and people will work out that it was our socially constructed norms that pushed them towards girls or boys toys all along.
It wont be the odd few, it will be the sharp majority imo.
