Man’s tissue? Snot allowed

-

KLEENEX has ditched Mansize tissues after claims the name is sexist.

The company’s supersize boxes of will now be labelled “Extra Large”.

Some customers said the move was “ridiculous” and “pandering to PC police” but Kleenex owner Kimberly-Clark said it was moving with the times.

Sam Smethers, of feminist group The Fawcett Society, said: “Kleenex’s re-branding matters. [In] advertisin­g, we use lazy gender stereotype­s.”
