Spanish MP, Marta Serrano, said Peppa Pig was to blame for the lack of women working in construction in Spain 

Marta Serrano said the children's show prevented women from going into jobs including road maintenance because they presented all the workers in these roles as 'giant, very muscular men'. The country's secretary general for land transport argued that cartoons including Peppa Pig and Paw Patrol presented a 'social and cultural challenge' because in the shows, 'those who work fixing the roads are strong men'.

During a conference on the role of women in the transport sector, Serrano said: 'We are teaching girls that the road sector is not for them and is a man's thing.

'It is something that impacts them from a young age and, if they do not have that awareness, it is very difficult for them to choose us in secondary school'.

The politician claimed her own daughter does not believe women can enter the transport industry, even though she sees her mother working on the other side.

But... It's just a cartoon, it's not that deep.

Peppa is not even a very good exemple for kids she mocks her own father and act super selfish with her friends :cryga:

Yeah I think reasons for women not wanting to go into the construction industry is a little more complex than "they only show men in children's cartoons" :selena:

Do you feel him sir?

I mean its a fair point about representation (or lack there of) affecting ppls phychology even if subconsciously

 

But its a comulative social affect from many thinfs. If anyone thinks 1 single kids show is gonna have that much social influence on career choices... talk about reaching :toofunny:
