Seeing as how lego figures have no sexual characteristics, and "gender is a social construct": aren't the ratios quoted solely the author's blame? You can't ask the plastic what it identifies as, you're assigning gender by your own prejudice.
Does anyone really accept the premise that making all the stormtrooper figures women (currently faceless and thus genderless) in a Lego Star Wars set is a real kind of progress and not just a cop out? No mention about transgender stormtroopers either. What's the ideal ratio of female to trans figures, anyway?<p>Is 50/50 (or 33/33/33, etc.) gender representation in Lego sets real progress, anyway?
> It’s extremely rare that you hear a bad word said about them<p>Well, not directly a piece of critique, but Lego is a symbol for consumerism culture to me.
