The economic cost of gendered toys

Two anecdotes that don't prove anything and that I merely enjoy

Carolla has fraternal twins, one boy one girl. One day he gave the girl a pair of toy cars. By the end of the day, she presented them to him upside-down, in a doll bed, the blanket tucked in at the front wheels.

I was raised by a single parent mom. In our house I was not allowed toy guns. By the age of 8 I was building guns out of LEGO and using a broomstick to play "war" with the neighborhood kids.
