Framing Analysis
University of Minnesota scholars at the Eli Coleman Institute created MyGenderDolls with removable genitalia for professional use with children ages 4-10; the project is scheduled for 2026 release and received state funding under Governor Tim Walz. A claim that the dolls would enter Minnesota classrooms originated from The College Fix and spread online but lacks supporting evidence according to Snopes. The dolls are marketed explicitly for clinicians and educators working with trans and gender-diverse youth.
