Have your say on government e-petitions

Labeling a chemistry set a "boys toy" is illogical. I think the Government should regulate this by introducing a new law.

Labeling a chemistry set a "boys toy" is illogical. I think the Government should regulate this by introducing a new law.

Additional Information

By signing this petition you are saying that you believe that labeling of the sort mentioned in the title is damaging to children's development, an insult to the scientific world and completely illogical.

We would like the houses of parliament to debate a bill that would mean toys that encourage scientific development and understanding among children are forbidden from advertising targeted at one sex in particular and also labeling for one sex in particular.

We would also like the houses to consider if sex labeling for any toys is indeed appropriate.

If a bill was successful forbidding advertisement targeted at one sex in particular and also labeling for one sex in particular regarding toys that could encourage scientific understanding or scientific development. Then we would like it to be named after Marie Curie and her husband Pierre Curie.
