Mr. and Mrs. Potato Head are now gender neutral


Just being called Potato Heads or X Potato Heads or something. That's friggen awesome!

I thought this was a joke post but it's not.

How do Mr and Mrs offend?

reply

I was astonished as well. I'm assuming because they don't include non-binaries or trans potatoes.

Well that makes the Toy Story movies needing a disclaimer. Get on it Disney!

“This film has outdated attitudes, language and cultural depictions which may cause offence today.”

😁
Any day now!

I think it's silly as well.

But just to clarify: The brand is going to be referred to as Potato Head. The individual toys will still be Mr. Potato Head and Mrs. Potato Head

reply

On behalf of someone that I don't know and have never met, I'm offended.

reply

LOL

I'm just glad that the new toys will be more inclusive and have sets for trans Potatoes that think they are turnips.

A couple more generations and we'll be soft enough for China to digest.

I know what you mean, but I also think the soft wokeness hasn’t taken over everywhere in the US just yet. I see it in popular media and the news but almost never encounter it in my daily life. I’m sure there are many more communities country wide that reject that silliness as well.

I mean, if I never put the mustache on my Mr. Potato Head when I was a kid, it was pretty much unisex anyways.

Plus, Mr. Potato Head can still have a mustache and identify as female. Or whatever he..I mean they want.

reply

Yep, or you could dress Mr Potato Head in Mrs Potato Head's "fixins" and it's cross-dressing Potato Head, right? ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ It's all so confusing.

reply

You can’t spell because you’re mentally retarded.

reply

This idea seems half-baked.

reply

I think your attitude is a bit salty!

reply

I get it from my parents. You could say I’m a mash up of them both, a chip off the old block..

reply

Why they never partnered with Ore-Ida to create a line of mini Potato Head toys called Tater Tots?

reply

What’s taters, Precious?

reply

Companies are getting on the gender bandwagon for one reason.

FREE PUBLICLY!

Really... when was the last time you thought about Mr. Potatohead?

I'll wager Mr. Potatohead sales are grow 3x this quarter.

I have a 6 year old daughter, so more recently than most, lol.
