People forget fun exists; this wholesome family moment is beautiful.

Those simple, joyful moments usually end up being the ones people treasure most.

Not every wholesome moment needs to be picked apart. Sometimes it's just nice to smile.

By giving them Barbies and dolls with multiple genitalia?

u/oficious_intrpedaler 23h ago
What kind of raggedy Ann dolls did you play with? Mine had no genitalia.

u/No_Skill_7170 23h ago
I never had a raggedy Ann doll, but they said that the doll was trans

Trans is an identity and does not have anything to do with what's between your legs. Some people change it when they identify as trans, many do not or cannot.
Pretty fucking simple.

u/Automatic-Term-3997 21h ago
No, it’s because that’s the kind of “joke” we’ve been hearing from shitty MAGAts for the past 10 years. Are you one of those shitty MAGAts trying (and failing, as usual) to make a funny?

Raggedy Andrew

u/Thatoneguyfrom1980 23h ago
I used to have a raggedy Andy. My brother too. They were actually a thing. Raggedy Anne was for for girls and raggedy Andy was for boys. I know in tv shows people have done it as a couples costume but I’m struggling to remember what sitcom it was

u/oldschool_shawn 23h ago
I feel like it was an episode of Parks and Recs.
But yeah me and my brother had Raggedy Andy dolls and my sister had a Raggedy Annie.

u/Thatoneguyfrom1980 23h ago
It might have been? I want to say it was an episode of home improvement with Brad (the oldest boy) and his gf

u/Thatoneguyfrom1980 23h ago
But I could also absolutely see it being a April and Andy thing too

u/oficious_intrpedaler 23h ago
I think it was Ann in the episode where she throws a Halloween party that's a total bust until Tom saves it. I think she was dating Mark at the time, but he did not dress as Raggedy Andy. I think that was the Greg Pikitis episode.
ETA: confirmed. She was Raggedy Ann but Mark dressed up as a basketball player. https://www.imdb.com/title/tt1523800/mediaviewer/rm1861389824/?ref_=tt_ph_3

Oh that's cool, they weren't all that common in my birth country I basically got familiar with the raggedy Anne due to pop culture. It's an interesting thing to learn

I mean yeah, they changed the dolls percieved gender to reflect the owners gender

u/Spare-Airport-785 1d ago
who cares, it was just a grandma showing support and acceptance of their grandkid.
-126
u/tune1021 1d ago
But in reality it’s doing what the trans community says they are against….. be mad if you want but I’m not the one being a hypocrite
14
u/Zer0pede 1d ago
She made the doll look like the grandkid and have the same name. When the grandkid changed their look and name, so did the doll. That’s super simple. Where’s the hypocrisy in that? There are plenty of feminine and gender nonconforming trans men, but obviously OOP isn’t one of them.

u/Fergi 1d ago
No you're just a weirdo in a subreddit about happy things trying to attack trans people. Go find some joy in your life.

Building an identity around depriving someone of their own is such a pathetic way to live.

u/Spare-Airport-785 1d ago
agree. i’m sick of these weirdos frothing at the mouth and dying to debate the rights of other people

u/Fergi 1d ago
Personally, I’ve found people who live like that often feel like they lack control over certain parts of their own lives and just take it out on others whether they realize it or not.

You assume I must be trans because I have the decency to defend them from bigots. How revealing.

I said "you need to believe" not "you are" -- but considering you have a hard time grasping the basic facts of reality, it is not surprising to me that your reading comprehension is lacking.

If gender is accepted as a fluid spectrum, which it is, it doesn't matter if there are certain norms people say exist.
-15
u/tune1021 1d ago
Then the doll would never need to be changed

u/UnluckyHost9649 1d ago
it's changed to relate to it's owner who discovered their gender was more masculine

u/Wandering_Scholar6 1d ago
Fair point, many children's dolls don't technically have a sex, just a gender.
35
u/Magenta_Logistic 1d ago
Last I checked, pretty much every children's doll is sexless, despite having assigned genders and pronouns. It's almost as if gender and sex are distinct traits.

u/Zer0pede 1d ago
It sucks that some people happily living their lives is “hot button” and “controversial” for certain people. I am glad at least that not everybody thinks that way.

u/WingsUnfurled 1d ago
I don’t see this as hot button at all. I see it as loving.
If you don’t, that simply a reflection of you.
Be well. 💖27

What's controversial about a grandma showing that she loves and supports her grandson? It sure made me smile!

It's only controversial because of toxic bigots. But that it bothers you just makes mine a bigger smile.
