Valerie Jarrett Demands End To ‘Gender Biases’ In Media And Toys
Breitbart ^ | 4/8/16 | Charlie Spiering

Posted on 04/08/2016 6:09:09 AM PDT by DeathBeforeDishonor1

President Obama’s senior adviser Valerie Jarrett is calling on a group of business leaders and educators to move the world away from “gender biases” in media and toys.

“We know so many of our young children have those biases and it’s our collective responsibility to try to change the culture, and changing culture is not necessarily easy and it doesn’t happen overnight,” she said.

Jarrett opened up a White House conference this morning dedicated to the issue of breaking down gender stereotypes in media and toys, citing her own experience as a mother.

During her speech, she recalled a time when she struggled to find Halloween costumes or birthday presents for her daughter.

“There weren’t a lot of alternatives that were gender neutral, or who encouraged my daughter to dream and think of herself not just as a little girl in a pretty dress … but to really convince her that she had, and shaped her future to understand that she had infinite possibilities that lie ahead,” she said.

Thank heavens we have the federal government to take the lead on such issues.

This statement could only be made by someone who has not been in a toy store in the last 30 years or, alternatively, who is so far lost in la la land that she does not allow pesky things like facts to interfere with her ideological narrative.

Are we seriously supposed to believe that? That there are no Halloween costumes or presents for little girls? Like there aren't rows and rows of Princess Ariel dresses and EZBake Ovens?

Now, I grant that there probably aren't a lot of GI Jane camo chemises or "Lil Miss" Turret Lathes. But I suspect most little girls would recoil at being given those anyway.

They are attempting to remove god and nature from our culture and society.
The damage they cause is of no concern to them. It is all about their vision and their undeclared and insatiable quest for total control.
Only sociopaths and psychopaths have these desires in the magnitude of these maximally disturbed people. I suppose they are worst of the worst.
Fictional characters Frank Underwood and his equally disturbed wife come to mind.
But they are only the hand maidens of the people in the shadows.

Her daughter, Laura, was born in the mid-1980s. The story that she couldn’t get “gender neutral” costumes or toys is a flat-out lie.

Yea I really don’t get it. I obviously didn’t see boys wearing ‘girlish’ (can I still say that) princess costumes or the like on Halloween. But there were plenty of girls that were storm troopers or pirates or teenage mutant ninja turtles or whatever they wanted to be.

She is just deranged.

The most dangerous person inside the Obama administration is and has been Valerie Jarret. Even Obama himself is second to her in being a danger to this country.

Born in Iran, divorced after producing a daughter, this shadowy woman is a communist sympathizer and a muslim mole who has the total ear of the president.

Obama, Jarrett and other lesser-known moles in the present administration are the ones who work tirelessly to re-shape American culture to their twisted, godless, marxist ideology. It'll take a strong, motivated upcoming president to root out these burrowers in the DC oligarchy....and Hillary will not be able to do it nor will she care to do it.

Its a very deliberate undermining. THere is a psychological war that has been going on undermining anything truthful or natural hence the push for transgenders. What alot of people dont understand is Putin, alot of his political assasinations involved disposing of cultural sabatouers such as this.(That the US sends in).
Its a war on your child by these monsters.

Unofficially, she's a "sister wife" of POTUS.

She sure doesn’t have much imagination! I never had trouble making up costumes for my kids, or selecting presents.

She’s a loser, and wants to head up the “Thought Police”.

Yeah, well, ultimately, we were formed as man and woman, both having gender-specific, naturally-derived functions in our logical roles ensuring the propogation of the species.

While these arguments from a Creationist position are much stronger and eventually unequivocal, even the Darwinist model militates for the natural extinction of such perversions as homosexuality, pederasty, necrophelia, etc., since these afflicted abnormalities are by definition incapable of reproducing.

In an intellectually honest "survival of the fittest" model, these malformed are among the very first to face predation, as they are almost uniformly physically inferior to their hetero contemporaries, and neither possess nor offer any useful social contribution.

Sorry, Val. You're peeing into a mighty wind.
