The Lady M&M Characters Were Changed to Make Them Less Sexist

Does this mean someone, somewhere had actually complained?

The Green M&M used to wear sexy knee-high boots, now they have her in sneakers. The Brown M&M wore stilettos, but now she's in a shorter, chunky heel. Guess that's supposed to be more 'professional'. The candy characters will also be 'more supportive' of each other in future ads.

Green's bio on the M&M's website now says she enjoys being a, quote, "hypewoman for [her] friends." And Brown's says she's "not bossy, just the boss." M&M's put out a statement that says they wanted to update their tone to be more "inclusive, welcoming, and unifying." 

Millions of us will sleep better at night now...
