    It’s just the logo. They still want you to buy two. I wouldn’t be surprised if they added a non-binary model so that you could buy three.

    Thank you for your attention to this matter.

      Idiots

      Male potatoes are different from female potatoes

      The logo doesn't change that

        Well, all I can say is, now that there's a Mrs. Potato Head, I feel a thousand times more liberated. 😑

          It's a good change. "Female Mr. Potato Head," "Mrs. Mr. Potato Head" etc. just sounds stupid grammatically.

          Which, yes, brings me to the old-timey construction of women using their husband's name socially. (e.g., "Mrs. John Doe.") First of all, that's just confusing as hell. Is John differently gendered, or simply a woman? If we're talking about Jane, then why the hell don't we use Jane's actual name?

          Please love yourself.

            I thought cross dressing Mr. Potato was a thing back in the day.

              It was. As was using Mr. Potato Head as target practice.

                        Funny I’ve seen this posted twice - by people on each side of the embedded issues. Both seemed to see it as making fun of the other side.

                          Like I said before I think back in the day the name of the game for Mr. Potato Head was to make the funniest intersectional creation.

                          This is all about boosting sales.
