I don't think that they used to be gender specific however with the Lego friends and elves sets they have definitely gone that way

That's just cherry picking, or a set up. Girl "now" could just as easily have built any other number of sets.

Gender specific - well the market to both boys and girls. What else should they do? Try to sell "friends" to boys and "warrior robots" (or whatever) to girls, just to please the feminists?

I don't think they would mind girls buying the warrior stuff and boys buying the friends or elves stuff. More sales for them.
