These are Swedish ads for different children's toys. 

You'd never see a girl playing with a gun, a boy feeding a baby doll or both of them playing with a Barbie Dreamhouse in the US.

We could learn a thing or two from the Swedes.  Gender neutrality is so refreshing.

Truth be told, you hardly ever see this in Sweden either. Great find, but just so you know, Sweden is not in any way a gender neutral paradise. I've never seen anything like this before and I've lived here all my life. :)
