Andrea Widburg at American Thinker believes, like me, that crayons, should be, well, crayons
I don’t know about you but, up until today, when I thought about Crayola, I thought about the 64 different crayons in the classic yellow and green Crayola box that’s been a backdrop to every American’s childhood since the early 1900s. (The 64-color box didn’t actually hit the market until 1958, at the height of the Baby Boom, but kids were using Crayolas beginning in 1903.)
But, not anymore, because everything has to be about gender somehow. What is next, trans-color crayons. The blue crayon identifies as a yellow crayon, and the green crayon thinks the red crayon is too colonialist, we must call the black crayon the African-American crayon, all coloring books MUST now be safe spaces for ALL crayons, no matter their preferred pronouns, and DO NOT even get us started on that White crayon Go read the whole piece.
