Link: How the Care Bears Prepped Us For A Post-Gender World
How the Care Bears Prepped Us For A Post-Gender World. Koriander Bullard. 2016:
Of all the Care Bear characters to change genders, not one was ever asked about their faith, not one was threatened, and nobody threatened to run them over with a cloud car or push them off the Rainbow Bridge if they didn’t stick with their birth gender. And nobody asked if Take Care Bear used her Stare to initiate the operation, what led to the decision to change colors and genders, what other secrets Secret Bear was hiding, or if Surprise Bear needed a “coming out” party. Not one gender joke, snide remark or backhanded compliment uttered.

For the record, Funshine Bear is my favorite Care Bear.
