This was a great look at what LEGO sets say (or don’t say) about gender.

Several years ago I was in a toy shop with a wall of approx 1000 Lego sets. Two older ladies were talking about presents for their niece Molly. One said, 'she's written she wants Lego but... There's only this one expensive set for girls? We'll get her something else instead, then.'

Excellent article, with many good points…but I find it hilarious that she focuses specifically on the rabbit eyeliner… (Several breeds have similar markings, but these are all hotots because that’s the one I could remember.)

A white rabbit with flawless black eyeliner and lashes that I am definitely not jealous of at all, giving a puppyish, quizzical head-tilt at the camera.
A close up of a white rabbits’s face. The bun has dark eyes with slightly wing-tipped kohl markings. Her face is extremely round and she has short little ears sticking straight up.
A shy looking white bunny with wingtiped eyeliner and spotted black and white ears snuggled up to a cuddle puddle of out of focus but similar buns
A white bunny with extremely goth eyeliner and blue eyes looking like she’s about to take the camera down. Presumably for denying her her rightful bananas.
