Q1. What toys are marketed for boys, and what for girls?
    What do we learn through playing with gendered toys?
Toys like robots and cars are toys that are sold for boys, and toys such as dolls and cosmetics sets are toys that are sold for girls.
We're set up to play with gender separated toys. And it causes gender stereotypes in our lives.

Q2. Can we see some geographical patterns?
    Can we try to explain them?
Developing countries, wealthy countries, generally have high gender equality rates. Also, countries with low development, and countries with low poverty, generally have low gender equality rates.
