Wild Things: Animals and gender coding on children's clothes:
After one too many polemics on the subject my husband asked if perhaps I was exaggerating. He decided to try and apply some numbers to my rants so he put together a nifty little webscraping tool that looked at twelve major high street chains, pulled out every item of clothing with an animal on it, and made a big list of animals divided by gender and in order of popularity.

comments, or cause them to be hidden behind another link, if we feel
they detract from the conversation. Commercial plugs are fine,
if they are relevant to the conversation, and if you don't
try to pretend to be a consumer. Annoying endorsements will be deleted
if you're lucky, if you're not a whole bunch of people smarter and
more articulate than you will ridicule you, and we will leave
such ridicule in place.
