Relentless toy gender-stereotyping kills me. What is so wrong with giving a little girl blocks and letting her build stuff? I actually had someone tell me I should have gotten her toddler daughter a doll instead (NTTAWWT, but exclusively?). I also notice parents holding back their girls more than their boys, all the time, when they get wiggly and start running around or trying to climb something. They don't have to be perfect demure little ladies all the time. Constant pink-ifying and frilling--I don't think you're inadvertently going to raise a burly mustachioed linebacker if you actually let the girl wear a primary color. Even blue!
