Little Girl Objects to Being Sold Pink Princesses

A little critical thinker after our own hearts, even if she might need a tiny bit of coaching to get the message out. Speaking of messages, Skepchick has got a great addendum to the video, which talks about how if girls should be outraged that they’re being placed into a marketing box full of pink princesses, then boys and girls should be outraged that there isn’t nearly enough precedented acceptance for boys liking princesses as there is for girls not liking princesses.

Did that sentence make sense? You should probably just read their article.

Susana Polo thought she'd get her Creative Writing degree from Oberlin, work a crap job, and fake it until she made it into comics. Instead she stumbled into a great job: founding and running this very website (she's Editor at Large now, very fancy). She's spoken at events like Geek Girl Con, New York Comic Con, and Comic Book City Con, wants to get a Batwoman tattoo and write a graphic novel, and one of her canine teeth is in backwards.
