What Would You Do?

[julieandrews]

Last night's Primetime: What Would You Do? had a boy shopping with his Dad and wanting to buy a Barbie. This was then followed by the boy in a dress in the same store while another actor berates the father for allowing it.

I tried to find the clip on YouTube, but failed to. If you can track it down, it's worth a watch.

They've been doing some really interesting scenarios around race, gender, sexual orientation, class, and body size lately.

I think that would just make me too mad to tolerate. Any time I see an ad for one of those, they already make me too mad to tolerate and that's just 30 second's worth!!

If buying a boy a Barbie is still so controversial that it merits mention on a frickin news show, I'm very sad.
