“Life is a series of experiences, each of which makes us bigger, even though it is hard to realize this. For the world was built to develop character, and we must learn that the setbacks and grieves which we endure help us in our marching onward.”

A place where her dreams have room to grow...

I'm an obsessive blogger and I know it. I'm also an obsessive blog reader. As I was reading one of my favourite blogs today, wolfe's Musings, I saw something that pissed me off and shocked me at the same time:

A Rose Petal Cottage

Why would a rose petal cottage piss me off, you ask? Just see below here....

Rose Petal Cottage Ad #1


And this one pisses me off even more:

Rose Petal Cottage Ad #2

If that doesn't piss you off, I don't know what does. Sure, there's the argument that these kind of toys are what girls are into. I'm actually not against the product itself, but the advertisements. They take women 50 years back, and it's like they're expecting little girls to only have dreams involving home care. This is what you're supporting when you buy a Hasbro product, and this is why you should avoid ever buying a Hasbro product ever again.
