A Crowd-Designed plush rabbit made by fans and designers with Gender Dysphoria.
How does Crowd Design Work? Check out this timeline of Crowd Design posts to see the mountains of feedback we gathered and used to guide the design of this unique plush:
Gender Dysphoria Rabbit is our most requested Plushie Dreadful design to date! The Crowd Design for this rabbit began on Oct 17th, 2021 with an initial sketch from Jen based on creative input from a small team of people who experience and are knowledgeable on the topic of dysphoria. On Dec 15th, 2021 an updated design was shared based on suggestions from Crowd Design. And again on Dec 19th, another update was shared. All of these Crowd Design posts attracted hundreds of Comments and thousands of Likes. Wow!
On January 13th, 2022, we shared the first pictures of the physical prototype.

IMPORTANT NOTE Regarding the design of our Plushie Dreadfuls. We take these topics seriously. That's why our design team only creates plushies related to issues with which they have direct experience. In cases where our team does not have direct experience, we assemble an external team of experts to help guide our creative process. In addition, we use Crowd Design to engage a wide range of voices via platforms like Instagram and Facebook. We gather and respond to feedback from our audience - many of whom have direct experience with the issues we're exploring. And while we strive to represent as many aspects of a particular issue as possible while avoiding stereotypical representations, we hope you understand that plush toys as an artistic medium do limit the full expression of a particular issue to those things that can be crafted in fabric and stitching.

I love this rabbit so much. I take it pretty much everywhere. I was hesitant at first to spend the money but it is 100% worth it. I had to put it through the wash because something sticky got on its ears and it came out just fine. I love it!
This bunny is soft, well made and as beautiful as the picture. A present from my mother, everytime I feel dysmorpihia or dsyphoric I have him to squeeze. It helps me feel better because not only do I know I have a soft cuddle bunny, but I have a reminder that my mom is my corner and understands what I'm going through. Loves me and accepts me for who I am.
Nice look, feels good to touch.
The rabbit is super super SUPER soft!! The quality is amazing!! The stuffing is well packed in there no floppy limbs or anything. The ears are big and cute and also very soft!
My friend actually bought this as well as a couple other bunnies for me. The other couple haven't arrived yet but I absolutely love this little buddy. Its very soft. Its more of a firm plushie but I am very happy with it.
