Hasbro introduces “boy-friendly” Easy-Bake oven

This is still the stupidest 'toy' ever invented.

There's a damned real oven in the kitchen. When the kids wanted to start learning to cook, we went there.

Overcome stereotyped gender roles by pandering to gender stereotypes about colours?

This is absurd. It is also just so trivial.

Not remotely an MR issue.

Meh, a real oven is better.

I would think the irrational fear of bright colors being pushed on boys is a bigger issue...

QueSeraSerape · 2012-12-18T15:25:46+00:00

Good. It's important that young boys see cooking as something for everyone, especially since knowing how to cook healthy meals for yourself is one of the most important skills anyone can have.

I don't know if I would call black and silver gender neutral though it is a lot closer than if they had gone with blue. A small victory for sure, even bigger one if this new one can out sell the "girly" version.

Fucking finally.

I'm surprised they hadn't done this sooner.

This is a classic "face value" move by the feminist-inspired multinational corporations.

The problem isn't that gender identity gets in the way of cooking, but that our culture does not support the notion of both genders cooking.

The right solution is to have little boy ovens and little girl ovens, not gender neutral ovens, which robs both genders of their identities.

The feminist solution for all things is to destroy natural order and replace it with a Soviet denial of all differences so that we can all pretend to be equal.

Great, I always wanted one. But now I'm "too old" and if I get one, I'm a gay pedophile.

I had am easy bake oven as a kid. I only asked for it because I wanted cake more often, and thought that getting one allow mere to easily make one without needing to persuade my mom to help.

Fuckin false advertising.

good idea .... it encourages guys to learn how to do things like bake when they are young dispelling yet more feminist fallicies about our inability to do things, good on them .

I personally never cared what color it was. The important part was that you could make cake and cookies in it.

Unless they made the "Easy-Bacon" Oven, that was enough for me.

SCCROW · 2012-12-18T17:35:45+00:00

Oh this is AWESOME!!!

I always feel like such a fag when I use my current easy bake oven!

Now, finally, at the age of 42, I can feel "MANLY" when I use my easy bake oven.

FREAKIN AWESOME!!!!!

Watch feminists freak out about it and insist that boys have to play with the purple ones.
