A psychological researcher back in 1983 You know how kids use the people around them as role models? Look up to them, admire them, maybe even feel some latent attraction to a few of them...innocent crushes, that kind of thing?

A psychological researcher back in 1983 What if we took an entire generation of children, and inundated them with images of talking animals during their key developmental years.

A psychological researcher back in 1983 Made talking animals feature in every TV show, movie, toy, and ad directed at an entire generation of children.

A psychological researcher back in 1983 Just...completely swamped these kids' brains with images of talking animals, so their role models were like cats and dogs and turtles and shit?

A psychological researcher back in 1983 I wonder what would happen to them.
