GENDER-NEUTRAL?

Its a strange world when you see an article in the paper stating should books be gender neutral?Here is an example if say Rapunzel escaped her tower  using brawn and brains or a boy or girl cannot be either.This is due to publisher Ladybird plan to make all its titles  gender-neutral.Confused i like boys and girls to make own choices and if not careful in future all kids will be clones of each other its already started.
