No your reading way too much into it Gaffer. There's no hidden agenda behind something being universally liked. Look at the film Gladiator. That film was liked by both men and women for entirely different reasons. That's just an example. Music is another. Explain to me how comes everyone can like music no matter who or what you are? Is music purposefully decreed so that only men like this and women like that? No it isn't is it. These things are examples. Not toys and clothes.

Music and movies aren't made that way?? I'll tell that to all the male students at the local high school that they can wear their "Bieber Fever" shirts while they go to see "Sex and the City 2." 

There's no hidden agenda. You're right. The agenda is plain to see and obvious. The film novel "Princess of Mars" was made into a movie called "John Carter" because the word "princess" would mean only girls could see it. 

"Salt" was a movie written for a male lead. When they cast Angelina Jolie and genderswapped it, they had to rewrite the ending because if a wife saved her husband, he would be too emasculated, and it would ruin the movie. 

The system of institutionalized sexism is all around, it affects both sexes, and it's not at all hard to see. 

The examples you use aren't exactly adult movies are they. Ripley from the Alien films is a perfect example of what I'm talking about. Adult films for adults, not teenage guff.
