Now it's Barbie
Concerned Women for America charged that Mattel Corporation's Barbie Doll was promoting gender confusion because of an online poll. The poll asked children to state their gender, and offered three options. Girl, boy, or I don't know.
That was enough to set off Bob Knight, CWA spokesperson, of supporting a homosexual agenda -- or even a transgender agenda.
"It's the idea that well, maybe people aren't born a particular biological sex, or they are but that shouldn't determine their gender identity," Robert Knight, director of CWA's Culture & Family Institute, told the Christian Post. "And that's a very big component of the homosexual activist agenda now."
Mattel quickly denied the charges, and changed the poll to say Girl, Boy, I Don't Want to Say according to WorldNet.
Only two weeks ago, Mattel was under attack by the religious right for its American Girl Doll products -- as I noted in Tis the Season to Boycott. There, religious right groups objected to a cross promotion with Girls, Inc., which supports girls, regardless of sexual orientation, and supports full reproductive health care.
In that case, Mattel was more cagey. When the fringe anti-abortion group Pro-Life Action League claimed victory and said that Mattel had backed down, Mattel refused to comment. |
