Little girl calls out 'sexist' children's clothes

Manufacturers have long been criticized for what they put on clothes. This time, a young girl is taking a stand against 'sexist' kids' clothing in a UK store.

Daisy Edmonds is only 8-years-old, but she recognizes the difference between boys' and girls' clothing. She went on a rant on video, which her mother, Becky, posted on Facebook:

While girls' shirts had text like "hey" and "beautiful," boys' shirts had phrases like "think outside the box" and "hero."

Daisy's message soon went viral, garnering thousands of views. A spokesman from the store, Tesco, thanked Daisy for the feedback and promised to look into it. "We stock a wide variety of clothes suitable for girls and boys and listen to the views of our customers when reviewing our range," they said. "We can assure [Daisy] that new styles will be arriving in stores shortly."
