It seems the new pirate and princess toys are causing grief for McDonald’s clerks:

For this four-week-long Disney Happy Meal campaign, the crew members who work the counter have been given a very specific script to follow. So that — if a customer asks for a Happy Meal — the crew member is then supposed to say in response ‘Do you want a Pirate toy or a Princess toy with your meal?’

But once it gets busy, people start to get sloppy. And invariably someone will slip up and accidentally ask a customer if they want a little boy toy or a little girl toy. And that’s all it takes to set some of these mothers off. They then begin to lecture our counter staff about gender identification and how dare we stereotype their child. Some of these women will go on for 5 minutes or more about how their daughter can be a pirate if she wants to be. All this fuss and noise over a crummy piece of plastic.
