COD.

Why couldn't they have done this 20 years ago when I needed them to do this.
:udontlookok:

COD.

Not being able to play with or buy a Barbie was so......traumatic for me  :plzstop: and it might seem like such a "wtf seriously" kinda thing but when you're 7 and want one more than anything else.....it's a big deal.

I had to fucking make DO.
I remember using the mop as a doll  :plzstop:
whenever my mom wasn't around of course.

She finally gave in and got me a Ken doll....but it wasn't the same.
:stressed:

but this is where they fuck up. Why does he have to be style like fucking Macklemore and be so cunty. This intensifies the discomfort. People will be mad either way, but personally I would have rather him be...........regular.

he's a kid. kids usually behave like this and not "manly".

Who said anything about manly?

Tell me that.

in the commercial he's "cunty" and you would have preferred him to be more "regular".

So you felt like defining what I meant by regular, by assuming I meant some behavioral extreme, especially for a child?

Oh.

I feel like they unnecessarily had him portray a stereotypically flamboyant fag.

Ggggghhhhhhh did y'all ever play with those tassels on the decorative pillows on ya grandmas couch? :plzstop: I used to pretend the braided stringy hair was moesha

:plzstop:

Miranda

He is just saying the lines. He has regular lil boy hair cut and voice. He is just saying the doll is fierce and laughing with the other female protagonist.

Was he supposed to wear a hoodie and say "Yo she a'ight!"

I mean I can see why some would say he gives "fem" but does he really or is that in our heads? He is just a child really being silly... And then again the Barbie is made for those kind of bubbly boys who do like that stuff.

A Barbie is not an action figure where a like like "Freaking awesome" would work...
