Even though it might seem the idea that some things are purely masculine or feminine should be considered quite outdated in the 21st century, apparently not everyone has this same opinion. Furthermore, the ones claiming otherwise are, surprisingly, the youngest members of our society. Take this little boy, for example, who told his 5-year-old classmate that Star Wars is for boys only, after seeing her wearing Star-Wars-themed shoes that she picked out herself. Luckily, Mark Hamill himself had the best answer – Star Wars is for everyone!

When will they stop? When it stops becoming a popular trope and garnering clicks and comments on social media and sites like boredpanda. ;)

"Star Wars" is for everyone. I have been a fan for decades. My favourite characters are Luke, Obi-Wan, and Rey. I also enjoyed 'The Mandalorian', and I think that Baby Yoda is the cutest thing since BB8. You don't tell this girl that all this fun is only for boys.

I spent 2 1/2 hours in line in Seattle for the original Star Wars opening. I went to each consecutive Star Wars movie on opening weekend. I own every Star Wars movie and bought a full size Boba Fett helmet for $60. I married a man who was totally into Star Wars too. But nah...Star Wars is just for boys...NOT!!!
