Take away the Lincoln Logs and Erection Sets and kids will have to play with Barbie.
Where's the future in that?

Barbie has no future.... Modern American teenagers are working towards gender neutral, in a way that would give even feminists nightmares.
Surveys showing how many American teenage females that would consider owning or wearing a skirt... Well lets just say its declining rapidly, at least until they have to go to "war" to compete for a particular guy.
Hosiery sales are less then 30% of the 1990s market.
Case in point. I walked into a room of 15 or so young ladies of twenty somethingish future PhDs at my former employer.. One of their peers had her adorable baby in the lobby, and I asked the group if they wanted to go see the newborn. Expecting to be ran over by the mass exodus of enthusiastic women, as tradition would hold,..... Well, I left the room to the screeching chant of "No Babies, No Babies"; They all planned on waiting til their late 30s to even consider children..
Scary for a traditionally raised male like me... And the confusion in gender roles in youth WILL have consequences, no matter if you are traditional or liberated.
