A new exhibition at the Science Museum in the UK has made the claim that Lego is anti-LGBT because it promotes the idea that there are only two genders.
The self-guided tour, titled Stories of Queer Communities, Experiences and Identities, at the London-based museum, included a display of legos along with a message that it enforces the mindset that heterosexuality is the “norm.”
“The top of the brick with sticking out pins is male, the bottom of the brick with holes to receive the pins is female, and the process of the two sides being put together is called mating,” the message read, adding that it was “an example of applying heteronormative language to topics unrelated to gender, sex, and reproduction.”
