Mr Potato Head: neutered

I could feel outrage welling up when I read the initial post but reading the article it's just the line of toys that being re-branded. Potatohead is the line but Mr and Mrs Potatohead will stay so not really news.
Bearing in mind it was just the range title I hardly think it's promoting gender neutrality as each item still has a gender. It's just a brand and not related to gender. Seems a pretty minor woke decision that really affects absolutely no one to me but nothing wrong with the new name either. Actually suits the line of products better.
No outrage, just sadness we've got to this. Barbie in different skin tones/hair colour and a gender neutral doll. Absolutely, no issues there as well. Just catering new products to a different audience. Changing a brand name that isn't actually related to anything. Mehhhhh'CUK forum personality of 2011 - Winner - Yes really!!!!Comment

Correct. 100% manufactured outrage, as if there isn't enough already. Got to keep the clicks coming!Comment
