An angry eight-year-old girl has called out supermarket giant Tesco over the “unfairness” of its gender-stereotyping clothing.

Daisy Edmonds was out shopping when she saw the less than inspiring wording on the range of girls’ tops offered by the retailer.

She became offended by the difference in theme between girls’ clothing with slogans such as ‘Hey!’, ‘Beautiful’ and ‘I feel fabulous’ on it and boys’ gear carrying messages that included ‘Desert adventure awaits’, ‘Hero’ and ‘Think outside the box.”

Daisy was so annoyed her mum caught her reaction in the video above and posted it on Facebook, where it has had nearly 10,000 views.

The indignant youngster said: “It’s unfair because everyone thinks girls should just be pretty and boys should just be adventurous.

“I think that’s wrong because why should boys and girls clothes even be separate because we’re just as good as each other?”

Pointing out a girls’ top with the word ‘Hey’ embroidered on it, she asked: “What part of ‘Hey’ is great? I don’t get it.”

Moving to the boys’ racks, she opined: “Boys get ‘Think outside the box’, which means be adventurous, go for your dreams.”

Daisy, who does ballet and also goes to martial arts classes, decided the girls were in need of inspiration and moved some of the boys’ tops to the girls’ display.

“I always want to be adventurous and I think girls should be heroes, so I’m going to put them in the girls section,” she said.

Daisy’s mum Becky, who filmed the video at a Tesco store in Swindon, Wiltshire, said her daughter likes girly things such as make-up and nail polish and has a pink bedroom. But she also joined the Beavers rather than the Brownies because she likes things such as raft-building, sailing and climbing trees.

She said: “Daisy doesn’t understand why there has to be separation. It’s the same with toys.”

Daisy doesn't mind wearing girly clothes

Comments under the video on her Lolly and Doodle Facebook page show support for Daisy’s opinion.

Sally Stone said: “What a great video, a young person that certainly knows her mind.

"It's a shame the clothes designers and clothes outlets don't think more outside the box, and not stereotype their young customers. Well done for expressing what many girls feel.”

Jacqui Mitchell said: “I've raised this with Tesco before, I agree whole-heartedly with this young person and think Tesco should make her something worth wearing.”

But she likes adventure too

In a statement Tesco said: “We stock a wide variety of clothes suitable for girls and boys and listen to the views of our customers when reviewing our range. We’d like to thank Daisy for her feedback and we can assure her that new styles will be arriving in stores shortly.”

Do you think Tesco’s clothes for kids are sexist or unfairly stereotypical? Would you be happy for your daughter to wear the tops that Daisy has taken issue with? Have you seen other kids’ clothing for sale that you think sends out a bad message? Add your comments below.
