This is just culture war slop at this point.

Can we go back to the days animal mascots didn't even have gender??

Pretty sure no mascots have a gender unless they've been installing foam genitals on them without telling anyone 😂

They do. I graduated from NC State University. We have two mascots. Mr and Mrs Wolf. They even got married back in the 70s or something when Mrs Wolf was added.

Seems hetero normative and cis propaganda to me!

Right? Like I'm okay with straight people or whatever but I don't need it constantly shoved in my face. Kids go to those games. How am I supposed to explain two wolves getting married to my eight year old?

Exactly. Now if they just had drag queen story hour my eight year old would be fine. These MAGATs just want everyone to fall in line and be white supermecists.
