vicarzI take it back - I'm against gay marriage. I never thought in a million years that it would have an impact on society, but now it's very clear that even the discussion of the subject has caused family wreckage.
Ken has left Barbie. Not only has this decades old couple been split, but there are rumors flying that Ken has secretly been gay all these years - just because he has a few leather outfits, has been known to wear a cock-ring, and wears more colorful shirts than Queer Eye's Carson!
What more proof do you need!? I hear Barbie has been hanging out with a new guy...Billy.

Date: 2004-02-13 08:12 am (UTC)I was actually reacting to how most people are reporting that Barbie is leaving Ken by taking the other tact. Given Barbie's physically impossible proportions, I really wanted to draw a post-op transsexual = Barbie comparison - RuPaul without dick or whatever.

Since clothes don't scale down, the plastic doll has to be made thinner so that the dressed doll will look realistic.

I posit that because of all the hoopla everyone, male and female, makes about girls' impressionability, it draws attention to the otherwise unremarkable and thus becomes a self-fulfilling prophecy. Few people make a fuss about boys having unrealistic expectations about their
