In the context of a fast food chain offering a Hot Wheels car and a Barbie doll as possible toys, her choice was a perfectly clear choice.

I don’t think the customer was being a bigot, but they clearly did not choose a toy.

What does the kid being a boy have to do with which toy they would want?

Have you ever played with Barbies? Have you ever played with matchbox cars?
