I saw that cute cartoon The Brave Little Toaster for the seventieth time but the protagonist, for which the title is named after, still comes across as lacking a definite gender unlike the others.
People can instinctively shrug it off, but it does leave a subliminal mind blur.
Of course this all leads back to Toaster's gender. The animators and screenwriters took great lengths to avoid having to reveal that issue. The most likely reason why we never learn Toaster's sex is to let everyone feel a sense of equality- so to speak. Perhaps for one brief moment, cartoonists realized how much of an influence they were to children and decisively broke tradition. With a strange mixture of a placid yet heart-warming appearance, voice, and behaviour, Toaster proves to be a role model for all.
