Take Action
Tell LEGO Girls Want real LEGOs too! LEGO has launched a new line targeted at girls called LadyFigs that are a curvy, make-up and miniskirt wearing new figurine line that requires almost no construction- the antithesis to Lego, which is intended to help kids build spatial, mathematical and fine motor skills. The toys are stereotyped female vocations like popstar, beautician and socialite. Visit the change.org petition to add your name to the cause.
