npub1k4qmle0sq0u0fwfz8l7zr85j3ag07z0v3lzj7xrkz5v6sfxdd00ss73lsq (npub1k4q…3lsq) worked in a yarn shop in Manhattan and I would always try to dodge the customers making baby blankets because of the gendered nonsense.
I'll never forget, "is this yarn too girly for a boy?"
"Ma'am, the yarn is gray with pink, blue, green, red and yellow bits. I think it's as gender neutral as you can get"
And my personal favorite: "do you think this color is ok for a man? I'm knitting a scarf for my boyfriend"
Coworker: "what's your boyfriend's favorite color? Maybe go with that?"
