I don't get your point. Why do you people desire mainstream acceptance so bad?! If you're so masculine and under the radar why would and does this offend you? Live in your truth. Even if you aren't Fem, you're still a homosexual at the end of the day.
Its not really about mainstream acceptance though. We're just talking about what would really sell that doll, and what exactly their target audience may be

Maybe they could have showed two different types of males or something, idk. I definitely wasn't offended though.

What's the difference because this child they used was the appropriate child for this type of doll.

It's not taboo that flamboyant sassy boys like Barbies though, everybody knows that, that's why even little boys are terrified to ask their mothers for a Barbie, cause they would fear their mom and friends would seem his as that  kindof boy.

Love and accept yourself girls. It's pathetic to feel the need to dim your light so that others can feel "comfortable" or "safe" with who you are.

I luv you n all that but...

This is an ironic statement coming from you

nnn omg when you always have to add some TOKEN masculine mess in your stuff to never seem too fabulous or too out there...

Yeah I like *add any predominantly female thing*, but ALSO am really, really into *any thing "masculine" you remotely like too*... As if you have to justify your taste.

:plzstop: :plzstop: :plzstop:

You faggots were uncomfortable with seeing this end feminine little bby play with a doll and give a kii owt mess with his judys. I support any image of gay, regardless of stereotype. Same as the images being put out there of POC. I may not agree with a lot of actions but I will stand by my people in unity because I will never make anyone feel as if they can't be themselves. I would NEVER conform to standards to make others feel comfortable. Ever.

Aamerie.

Even if you aren't Fem, you're still a homosexual at the end of the day. Love and support one another. This commercial is bringing nationwide attention to an otherwise taboo fact. Regardless, Beth isn't gonna buy her son Barbies whether the kid was regular or not. That's just the fact of the matter.

Love and accept yourself girls. It's pathetic to feel the need to dim your light so that others can feel "comfortable" or "safe" with who you are.

Yea you need to exit this thread. You are not even on topic at all. The sad part is that you think you're preaching but nobody came for this sermon today. Maybe next week, or just a thread for whatever it is you're talking about. None of this is about me or anyone personally seeking acceptance. It's about debating the best way to get certain images comfortably accepted into the mind of America thru thoughtfulness and not cheap stereotypes. There's a huge difference. Go play.

Regular non-white, minority households. Not everybody is as free and hippie as white families. They have earned this nonchalant attitude because they don't have to deal with other stifling mess. That's why they kids be so damn edgy. nnnn Kids who talk about their sex life with mom and pop, I will never get.

Contradictions in the 2nd and 4th sentences Margy.

Nothing about that made anyone uncomfortable. what're you even talking about in here :dead: it's like ur posting about another topic entirely

It would have been refreshing to see something different though. America only gets to see one type of gay man on television, it seems. It's just ...  Typical, and predictable lol but no ones offended

Am I the only person actually reading the shit you all type? Because what I'm talking about has everything to do with this topic. Like if you don't like what I'm saying you can very easily move right past.

But Mattel is, and we were discussing the elements in the commercial they used.....to sell dolls.

Now do you see how off topic you are?
