Same goes for the idea that superheroes are for boys and playing house is for girls. They do those things because that's what their parents encourage. Many boys will happily play with dolls and many girls will happily roughhouse if they're not brought up to associate these things with a social stigma.
I'm all for anything that breaks down arbitrary societal barriers that contribute to inequality, no matter how small, so I'm all for showing kids that a dude can wear pink and still be awesome.
