Roundup: Girls, Boys, and Toys

Allow me to break your heart:

• “Smart like Daddy, Pretty like Mommy”
• “Too Pretty to Do Homework” (Now, if they’d called it “Too Busy With Other Things to Do Homework,” they would’ve had a point) — and follow-up: the bright pink “Allergic to Algebra”

…Now allow me to put it back together again:

• One girl’s rant
• And one teacher’s strategy

UPDATED: This Jimmy Kimmel clip is absolutely hilarious — especially the girl who gets the half-eaten sandwich! — but the family whose idea of “terrible presents” is to give their kids presents for the “wrong” gender makes me very sad.
