Describe the colour in the title!
Paprika- I see your point about the skirts and dresses. But this only applies to a small part of the of the ad's I'm thinking of.
Most of them could just describe the colour in the ad-title. "Pink", "Beige", "Flowerpattern" "Blue and khaki" instead of "boys" or "girls".
And it doesn't just apply to clothes, it goes for toys too.
I think that we are keeping up trends without thinking about it. And I do think someone is more likely to consider a "blue trike" for their daughter, than if it says "boy's trike".
I hope you are right about the blue-pink trend subsiding, it's very uniform and expensive in the long run.
But first and foremost: people here on Jumbletown deserve a lot of praise for generously giving away their no longer needed things!
Daz38- Great that you were able to reuse to much!
Chris P-I know! This is a great example of how sooo many of the things we think of as masculine/feminine have completely changed during the course of time. And will keep changing...
