"What kind of boy enjoys things that are meant for girls?": Grandma throws out $200 worth of 14-year-old grandson's baking supplies, dad bans her from their house until she appologizes or replaces everything

If you go to your nearest Walmart and visit the toy section, you'll likely see a lot of pointlessly gendered toys. Slowly, as a society, we are starting to come to terms with the fact that kitchens, baby dolls, and sports are not exclusive to boys or girls. Boys will, presumably, grow up to be self-sufficient adults and fathers, and girls have always enjoyed sports as much as boys. Still, it's curious and ridiculous to spot the same plastic bowling set, one blue and one pink, in different sections of the toy aisle, marketed to different kids based on their gender.
Some adults still feel it necessary to enforce old-school gender roles. Our protagonist in today's story is too old to be playing with toys; he has long graduated from his play kitchen days and is now an up-and-coming baker! His grandma finds the boy's hobby too "feminine" for her liking, so she takes matters into her own hands.

If the disparaging comments weren't enough of a reason to ban grandma, the entitlement needed to throw away someone's possessions certainly is.
