Thousands of years ago, men and women discovered that they had certain differences, some of them extremely obvious, especially if we consider that they walked about the land naked. They also had different tastes. The cavemen liked to play by hitting things, carrying huge rocks, and hunting mammoths. Cavewomen indulged in other types of entertainment, which included making decorative pendants from the teeth of animals previously killed by their mates. Since then, mostly, girls have changed a lot. Men, not so much: We still like to hit balls and lift heavy things, and we hate paying taxes, which is like hunting but in reverse, because you are the prey.
I say this because the fact that there are toys for boys and other toys for girls is not a cultural imposition, as the Left claims, but market assimilation of a real demand, which is intrinsically linked to our human condition, which — I’m sorry to say — dictates that we are men or women. This accounts for why we enjoy different things, even as we have many tastes in common.
