That does suck. I know one girl who begged her parents for Hot Wheels, but they wouldn’t buy them for her since she was a girl.

Although we as boys did have to go through the weird transition of discovering black or brown socks were JUST NOT COOL, and begged our parents to buy us white socks.

We had Danskins – hideous color-coordinated separates in a stretch polyester. I begged and pleaded for toughskins or wranglers like my brother had. I hated my mother.

As were pictures taken with your toys. Or posing your toys and taking their picture. Get the picture?

And yeah, we had the Ernie stripes and Bert turtlenecks too.
