“What if Mario was a girl? (Dr. Mario)” Just dumb because we’ve never seen or established who Pepper was, but Mario is well known.

I mean it’s from the late 1800s. Not sure women were allowed to be doctors then. They might’ve come down with “hysteria” and sawed off the wrong leg. Cause the men were really keeping things in order.

Maybe she was a radical. Dr. Pepper, suffragette.

Technically it’s a gendered word, and a woman could be called a doctrix, similar to dominator/dominatrix.

Edit: phrasing and add picture

This just exploded my mind. I can’t believe how surprising this statement is because I’m exactly the same.

I’ve never considered it’s a person… To me I only associate it as the name of the drink and never thought deeper about where it came from.

Same with Mr. Pibb, and that had the gender right in the name. I just, never thought about it.

I don’t think I’ve ever heard anyone ever call it Pibb Xtra in person. Of course over the years I have heard Pibb a lot more than I used to lol, but still, Pibb Xtra? So weird.
