This petition was submitted during the 2010-2015 parliament
Rejected petition Tescos are not backing down labeling a Chemistry set a "boys toy" I think the Government should make them by introducing a new law.
More details
By signing this petition you are saying that you believe that labeling of the sort mentioned in the title is damaging to children's development, an insult to the scientific world and completely illogical.
We would like the houses of parliament to debate a bill that would mean toys that encourage scientific development and understanding amongst children are forbidden from advertising targeted at one sex in particular and also labeling for one sex in particular.
If a bill was successful forbidding advertisement targeted at one sex in particular and also labeling for one sex in particular regarding toys that could encourage scientific understanding or scientific development. Then we would like it to be named after Marie Curie.
