NBC News: ‘It’s Good’ California Requires Big Box Toy Stores to Have ‘Gender Neutral’ Sections

‘The new California law gives retailers with more than 500 employees two years to add gender neutral section or face big fines’

EXCERPT:

WARD (voice-over): “If you have been inside a big toy store, you know how it is traditionally organized: a boys’ isle, a girls’ isle, right? The new California law gives retailers with more than 500 employees two years to add a gender-neutral section or face big fines."
WARD: "This might seem like a silly piece of typical California politics, but the truth is at big box toy stores across the country have been moving in this direction. Both Wal-Mart and Target have done away with gender toy sections. Experts say that’s good because gender toys shape how children see themselves and each other.”
