Thats why 23-year-old Indy Mellink decided to design a new deck of cards that would be inclusive of everyone.
Questioning why certain gendered cards are worth more than others, Mellink decided to design an alternative system.
Gender isnt the only problem with traditional playing cardsrace is too.
Mellink decided on creating cards marked with Gold bars, Silver coins, and Bronze shield icons.
She says, Everyone already knows that from sports, and it is translatable to every language.
The rest of the numbered cards remain the same as a traditional deck.
Mellink designed the new card designs herself, and initially ordered four decks to test out.
My friends and family loved them so much, they also wanted a pair.
TheGSB Playing Cardsare designed as an alternative to the traditional card decknot as a replacement.
I was raised by my mom to be an open person and always consider my options.
That is why I designed these cards.
To give people a choice.
