>"So you come into the room and your 18 month old son is playing with a Barbie - what do you do?," Phil asks. "Do you let them play, or do you take it away from them?"
>The question sparks a mixed response. Some boys say they'd let them play. Others aren't so sure. "I'd take it away from him," one boy offers. "I don't want him to be gay."
>"Okay," Phil says. "So I'll take the Barbie away and replace it with an Action Man. Does that mean he's not going to be gay?"
>"No," the boy laughs, and others join in. Phil smiles. "So you see your logic then," he says. "If playing with an Action Man won't turn your son straight, playing with a Barbie won't turn him gay."
>Phil asks the boys if any of them know anyone who is gay, and most say no. He tells them that statistically, it is very likely that one of their friends will be gay, bisexual, or transgender, and that by saying they don't want their son to be gay, they are also telling that friend that they can't come to them and be accepted.
More busy work; another worthless scheme in which boys are expected to give canned answers like “boys don't cry”. The worst of this type is the white ribbon campaign in Australia.
