Re: Coloured plasters
Sounds like a good idea - why not, doesn’t harm anyone?

Re: Coloured plasters
What a sad place we live in when coloured plasters make people happy.

Re: Coloured plasters
What a sad world we live in when people feel the need to denigrate something that makes some people happy, and has no negative impact on them...

Re: Coloured plasters
If there has been a plaster that matched my skin tone, then it would've been a coincidence and nothing more. I never got the slightest bit bothered whether it did or not. In fact in never would've occurred to me to be the slightest bit bothered. White people will now be criticised when forced to buy "non-white" plasters because the "white" plasters weren't available.

Re: Coloured plasters
Some people need to worry about more important things than "skin colour" plasters
I would use kiddy ones, a plaster is a plaster.

"forced to"?
<snigger>
Just like people were forced to buy Greggs vegan sausage rolls?
Nobody is being deprived of anything, there’s just going to be more choice - Capitalism in action...

If there were no "white" plasters left on the shelf, then as I said , they would be forced to buy "non-white" ones. Just as somebody who needs(for health related reasons) to buy wholemeal bread is occasionally forced to buy white, brown, or 50/50 bread instead.

If you really believe that, by your reasoning, "non-white" people are "forced" to buy the current "flesh coloured" plasters.

The issue isn't whether they are forced to buy X, but the inevitable complaints from others, if they were forced to buy "their" plasters.
