Khaki Brigade

What are little boys made of? Snips and snails, and puppy dogs tails. That’s what little boys are made of!” What are little girls made of? “Sugar and spice and all things nice. That’s what little girls are made of! OMG reach for the Gender Equality Action Group Phone number.
How dare somebody write a quote that puts boys and girls in a box? Hello it was written back in the day, 19th Century to be exact, you know a time when people had no idea that labeling would firmly position a child in a box of Gender specific Blue or Pink, and that could be a massive problem in them realizing there full and true potential.
Yep, no way in this world that quote would live to see the light of day in the 21st Century. The author would have been whacked severely by every new age parent blog, or Face Book page on the planet.It would be so bad I am sure that You Tube Comment Videos with Pictures and music would be made slamming the very thought of it. Yep the “Khaki Brigade” would have a fit and choked on the morning Latte (with Low Fat Milk of course)
The Khaki Brigade is what I fondly call the groups that are ohhhh so hung up on, “Gender Equality” in children and their biggest hatred? Boys wearing Blue and Girls Wearing Pink.
Yes, the world may be in the midst of Global Warming, Massive Unemployment, Country’s tinkering on the brink of Financial Collapse, Typhoons, Earthquakes and Tsunamis you name it but these events pale into insignificants should the Khaki Brigade see an Advertisement of a Barbie for Girls or Ken for boys!
I could imagine them organizing terrorist activities on Mums and Dads that even think of buying Pink or Blue Paint, Curtains or sheets and Pillows to decorate their new bundle of joys soon to be bedroom. Pity the poor Grand Mothers who will be subject to Jihad if they dare utter the words, “Oh your such a little Princess” or the water boarding awaiting Grand Fathers overheard saying, “He will grow up to be a great Ball player” comments.
A truly radical group they are, and I have decided how we can truly make them happy. I believe that “Khaki” should be the color of choice for all things Baby.
Yes dear misguided parents, dress them up in a dull shade of green and there will be no more pain or suffering for these poor Khaki Brigade people if they see a Pink Hello Kitty pair of Pj’s on a new born passing by.
Khaki, will be the standard for all sorts of clothing, PJ’, School Uniforms no need to worry all kids will look exactly the same a true stand for Equality, you have no need to worry if it’s a boy or a girl, no separate sections in Wal Mart we can all go and shop at the, “IT” department.
What an awesome idea, all dressing the same, the Kaki Brigade will finally be happy and rest in peace that they saved the world of potential serious issues.
Yep, Gender Equality, what a thought but hang on didn’t a chap name Chairman Mao try that already?
These are Hodgies Words.
