 Before I think of this question, what is toys for boys or girls? First, toy that marketed for boys  is robot, car, or hero. Toy that marketed for girls is dolls, role playing toy etc. They have similarities. Toy for boys is violent or moving. And toy for boys is man's interest.  For example, car is most interest thing among mans. And most hero is man. Representatively, there are super man and iron man. Toys for girls is associated woman's interest and role. Most woman's interest is beauty. Dolls is one of the beauty. And woman's role in society is home work. Role plating toys reflect this.

 Toys reflect adult's interest and role. It may be instinct mans love car. But it may be old culture. Historically, man is dynamic and actively. It makes man love dynamic and actively.(Dynamic and actively thing is robot or car) In other aspect, toy for boys or girls make more boys is male and girls is female. Thing boys play toy for boys make boy have man's interest. Woman's aspect is same.
