In my opinion, the image boys playing with dolls is just a way of translating the importance of a paradigm shift to us adults that already have these pre-determined notions of what dolls are for. Boys and girls develop in very different ways, each individual will find something to play with that brings them happiness and meaning. What really needs to change is the undercurrent of the parents'/guardians'biases (or the biases of any role models in these kids lives for that matter) that tell the kids what dolls/tonka trucks represent. Then playing with dolls becomes more about exploring than conforming.
