I saw this on "The Daily Show" so I had to go look it up to make sure Jon wasn't having me on. Basically, it's a J. Crew ad where a woman is playing with her young son and in one photo, is painting his toenails neon pink. AND IT HAS CAUSED CONTROVERSY. About gender identity.

And you only get one guess as to what "news" network is making the most hay with this.

Further proof we are apparently far too affluent in this country with not enough adversity in our lives. Or, you know, some people are. How else would they have time to worry about such bullshit?
