 The County of Los Angeles has requested that equipment 
 vendors avoid using the industry term Master/Slave in 
 product descriptions and labelling.

It's insensitive, apparently.  So what happens to male/female stuff next, I wonder?


Well there goes my line of BDSM-themed children toys :(

Gay Happy Meal toys?

Transcribed a bit from a less than reputable Disney newsgroup:

Re Brother Bear.

It has been discovered that Tuke and Rutt were made for each other in more
ways than one.  Rutt's legs splay out, lowering him just
enough for Tuke to climb on board, and Tuke is a bobblehead
who's head nods approvingly up and down, up and down.
Even their expressions fit the pose!
