I don’t know how I feel about including a decapitated woman’s head in every LEGO set. Doesn’t seem to send the right message about gender equality.

LOL!

You reveal your own ABS sexism by assuming that the woman would have to be decapitated! Why not yank off the man’s head instead? Or why not include a headless body with the pair of heads alongside?

Dave!
