Really, people? Really?

Young girl bullied for liking Star Wars. Story at Star Wars Blog; also Go to Geek Girls, ACTIVATE!! has the details and you can leave a comment in support of Katie. If you tweet, add the hashtag: #MayTheForceBeWithKatie to show love for girls loving scifi.

Is it me or is bullying starting earlier than ever? And to be bullied for liking something that's "for boys" so a girl feels she has to conform by getting a pink water bottle rather than one from her favourite fandom - just makes me rage.

I know! Grrr! I hate seeing adverts where only boys play with pretend tools and only girls play with pink cookery toys! Let children play with all sorts of toys and read all sorts of books and they will decide what they like!
