Girls and dolls in the Roman Empire
&gt; These toys carried strong messages about girls’ expected roles in society.<p>It&#x27;s sad to see this Critical Theory nonsense trickling into real disciplines. Children play pretend, and they dress their dolls like their mothers and other people they admire. It&#x27;s not an insidious plot, it&#x27;s a culture and youthful admiration.<p>If you can look at a toy a child loves so much that they were buried with it and see a ploy by society to control them, you&#x27;ve gone off the rails.
