Mr Potato Head goes gender neutral

[Jack2jack]

Well that marvelous, but do you see my point, where is all this going.

I see your point, but disagree with it. There's likely to be an over-correction as we become more understanding of issues that weren't considered to be a 'thing' in the past, but will probably calm down over time.

If anything is suggested that I think is actually potentially harmful to a section of society, then I'll be right there alongside you on the protest bus, but this isn't that issue for me.

I hear what your saying, and we are still talking about a child's toy here, right!

Next thing will be Mr Potato Head marrying another Mr Potato Head and adopting little potato kids who they’ll raise as gender neutral till the little spuds are old enough to choose for themselves. Thin end of the wedge this boys. Got to nip it in the bud.

Are they going to have sex and create new potatoes?

I don’t think potatoes have that facility but I’d have to check.

They’d be a chip off the old block.

Would that be a lightly spiced frozen wedge?

That’s outrageous!

Are only male potatoes allowed moustaches and only female potatoes allowed to wear lipstick?

Gender stereotyping at its worst.

Imagine being a grown adult and losing your shit at what a toy company wants to name their brand of plastic potatoes. Some people clearly didn't get enough love and attention as kids.

Honestly, some people on this forum are a marketing department’s dream...

Never known so many people to get quite so OUTRAGED by utter nonsense.

I'm glad you agree, it is of course utter nonsense, and the sooner this bullshittery stops the better.
Lovely day down here btw.

That could be asked about most thing ffs.
It obviously doesn’t affect him in any way but he’s giving his opinion on it.

Since you've asked nicely,I'll tell you,it doesn't bother me personally at all, what does bother me is what adults are feeding into kids minds, and we are talking of very young kids here, around the 4 or 5 age group, kids who are still developing and have no clue, it's just a comedy potato to them, no I'm afraid it's more BS,it doesn't work for me, and I may add, as a father, I'm sometimes appalled that adults manipulate this sort of thing for their own agenda. They are bloody kids ffs, leave them alone until their old enough to form their own opinion.
Just my opinion rightly or wrongly, probably not worth arguing over in the end.

It’s pretty obvious that it does bother you personally.

It should bother anyone with an ounce of sense.

Why? In what possible way could this upset or bother anyone?
