M&Ms redesigned their mascots, giving them new shoes. Tucker Carlson finds the brown M&M 'less sexy' without her stilettos.

On Friday, Fox News host Tucker Carlson mocked freshly rebranded M&M's cartoon mascots, which were revised to promote inclusivity and "underscore the importance of self-expression," manufacturer Mars Wrigley said in a press release on Thursday.
....
"M&M's will not be satisfied until every last cartoon character is deeply unappealing and totally androgynous until the moment you wouldn't want to have a drink with any one of them," Carlson said. "That's the goal. When you're totally turned off, we've achieved equity. They won."

Besides, she's Roger's girl and I wouldn't want to cut in on him.

(491 posts)... M&Ms have sex appeal and are arousing???...
... seems Tucker has an unhealthy preoccupation with his sexuality (or lack of)...
... don't most little boys eventually grow out of this fascination enough to be functioning people in public? ...
... and yes, I remember Toby's line from West Wing "...show the average teen age boy a lung wrench..."
... this old woman is SO very tired of this stuff....

Sorry about the off-color joke, if you consider green an off-color that is.
