A transgender doll divided opinion in Argentina when it went on sale at Toys R Us in 2018, while in 2019 toy company Mattel announced a gender-neutral Barbie doll. The images attracted opinion on social media, with one writing:

“Is it ok to produce toys like that for children?”

Another wrote:

“I think it is really terrible what is going on in this child’s parent’s head. Have you considered that it could simply be a manufacturing defect? Or they accidentally put a female head on a male body?”

Another simply wrote:

“I believe this is a liberal attempt to change the society.”
