If they insist on offering two different toys, they could offer it as a choice rather than asking the gender of the child. Just because they choose to gender all toys does not mean that individual girls or boys might not prefer the other toy.
I have never been a big McDonald's fan. When we lived in a bigger city for a year, I ate there twice when it was only two blocks from where we lived. My son, a picky eater, seems to love the Mcnuggets and regularly asks to go there. We also have limited options for meals that we don't make at home since we live in a small town. We haven't got food poisoning yet but there are some food quality problems there as well as failure to give us the right food most of the time (we always check now).
