Tag: LEGO and gender stereotypes

By: Meghan Boudreau, I Have The Right To Intern.

Like many of my peers in my younger years, I loved playing with LEGOs. My little brother and I would spend much of our time in the LEGO store, looking at sets that were way too advanced for our age. One of my favorite models was a toy space destroyer with aliens as part of LEGO’s “Alien Conquest” kit. The design was a cool tripod build that included a face hugger and ugly alien trooper. My brother also participated in what is called the First Robotics LEGO League competition for three years.
