not only sexist , the description "man size" should have been picked up on long ago, the average man is 5 feet 8 inches  :-\
those tissues are perhaps 12 inches at best  :y

It's because they're going to increase the price of existing sizes to what they charge for large tissues, and introduce a slightly cheaper range of small ones. Sometime in the next 18months.


I dare you to accuse me of being cynical.

I'm pretty sure most of the complaints came from beard-growing feminists and limp-wristed mangina.

Such people seems to be constantly looking for ways to be offended and outraged. :-\

I have never been with any man who needs the size of a 'man sized' tissue!

They may brag that they do, but in reality their bits can be covered by any normal tissue ::) ::) ;D ;D ;D ;D ;) ;)

Tin hat on....................... :o :o ;D ;D ;)

If the size of the tissue is reduced to less than 'man size' then teenage boys will need more to 'clean up' with.

.........or use their socks. :)
