But why did they have two gender them at all? They're umbrellas!

Wouldn't most people have just assumed they were male and female anyway, because it was shown as a love story, without hitting everyone around the head with it in such an unnecessary manner?

Unfortunately for most people, "no gender" still defaults to male.

Yes, that was the problem.

Blam! Double homophobia and sexism, all rolled into one.

Such a pity because it was such a sweet little short. But they had to give the girl umbrella those cliched eyelashes like we were still stuck in the last century.

Couldn't just making one red and one blue be enough to imply some difference between them?

That would have been a perfect solution.

Ambiguous enough for them to show they had confidence in their viewers' intelligence, yet it still could have read as m/f for those who really felt the need to gender their umbrellas and so assure themselves that they weren't gay umbrellas, heaven forbid.
