Guess Who, in the 90′s, was an interesting game. I think I got it for Christmas. We played it all the time, always enjoyed it. We’d fight over who was red & who was blue (because it was important, damn it). But… there came a point where you would look at the array of cartoon faces and wonder…
Why were there only 5 girls? If you were smart, the first question you’d ask is “Is it a woman?” If the answer was yes, boom. You narrowed it down exponentially. It wasn’t even fair.
Race was kind of an issue, too. 90% of the faces were white. Kind of awkward…
Then there was weight. “Is he fat?”
And was it just me, or did a lot of the guys look a little… questionable? Just sayin’
I haven’t seen a new version of Guess Who — is it any different? I would hope it’s at least a little more diverse.
