After reading about how people (women) are now offended about large tissues being called "mansized" what is there left to be offended about?

man having shorter lines at the toilets when it's busy and feeling like it should be mixed (but not understanding why that makes no sense).

It'll be clothes sizing next. They will decide that going by small, medium, large, is offensive and putting people in boxes banghead

It will end at about the same time people stop moaning that "the world's gone mad". When my 83 year old father says it I remind him he grew up in the second world war.

I think that people who complain about others being offended are just as intolerant because they just cant accept that things aren't as they were "in their day".

Why is it such a problem that Kleenex want to look like a modern company and not one from the 1960s?

Claiming to be "offended" is, on the whole, the calling card of cretins. People have no doubt complained about stuff since the dawn of mankind (yes mankind, not personkind), but becoming offended over trivialities is ridiculous.

Because "man size" should be a complete non-issue to anyone with at least a semi-functional brain. Kleenex don't look any more modern, they look weak.

That's hilarious! I should be annoyed by such a stupid reaction but I just find it funny.

So therefore it should be a complete non-issue if they choose to change it, surely. You can't have it both ways.

It's a non issue for me, I find it hilarious that someone was as bothered by the naming in the first place.

No. You'll have to explain.
