G.I. Joe doesn't exactly glorify math to boys.
But if a GIRLS toy says something- WHOOPS! Time to jump on the bandwagon and claim women are victimized by society.

Nevermind the fact that id they girl doesn't like the toy- She won't play with it.
And I may have had talking toys when I was a kid, I am sure they may even have been opinionated. But I didn't listen to them.
