After seeing this Walmart Commercial my son Jack came to me and said, “Mom, I think walmart is sexist”.

Me “Oh? Why do you say that?” I hadn’t seen this particular commercial. He was upstairs watching TV.

All the costumes that the mom pulls out for boys are super heroes, and all the costumes for girls are princess (which he says with a lisp, btw)ones.

Me, “oh honey, you just gave me my next blog post!”

This must have worried him a little because he went upstairs and then came right back down and said… “hey before you blog about that, maybe we should rethink it. I mean maybe walmart isn’t really sexist?”

Me “no, I twittered about it” I did too… really fast!

Jack “But mom! What if walmart sees?”

I guess it was probably a good thing I didn’t tell him some of my twitter friends are the Walmart 11 moms!
