UK moms protest over pink girl's toys because they think pink toys create a person who prefers beauty to intelligence.
There are a lot of kinds of toys for boys at a toy shop. On the contrary, the kind of toys for girls is limited. I think it is a discrimination between boys and girls. Boys can get many skills by playing with their toys, but almost all girls only have toys such as dolls and they can learn nothing from them. Therefore, a toy shop should have more diverse toys for girls. However, I don't think a shop should have less pink toys. That is because I think even if girls were covered with pink when they are little, they would choose color that they like as they grow up. Pink would not affects on little girls' lives. Colors are not that important in their lives, so they wouldn't make less importance in their brains even if they were covered with pink.
In addition, I disagree with the idea that pink represents beauty so much. Although there is a fact that having pink goods looks cute, other colors can also make girls look cute. Girls do not always have to look beautiful and pink doesn't always make them look beautiful. I think it might be a prejudice that girls better have toys which are pink and that the color "pink" is supposed to cover not boys, but girls.
With the reasons I gave above, I strongly believe that there is no point in protesting against pink.

amazing
One of my friends told me to watch this video and I was very surprised to watch this. So I would like to recommend all of you to watch this too.
In this video, a 15-year-old girl came from Philippine to the US to sing. I assumed I would not be surprised to listen her singing because I thought she was just a child and therefore, she wouldn't be able to sing as well as other great singers. However, her voice was not like the one I had expected to hear. Her voice and her passion to sing moved me and I was very impressed.
I think her ability to sing very well is her genius. No matter how hard other people practice to sing like her, they wouldn't be able to sing as well as they can impress listeners.
