I've been ignoring all the press, but even if Barbie is satirical or an in-joke, little girls won't get it but they'll get the impossible image message. It's a shame they didn't make Nuclear Barbie, which could have been a double bill with Oppenheimer and even this former tomboy would go to that!
I'm with you over the Barbie hype.
Agreed, I much preferred Sindy but she did have a massive head.
I think I'll watch the film but I do think it's a very strong reinforcer of the pink is for girls message which we could do without at the moment really.
Abortion is not legal though, it is still a crime. It is decriminalised under specific circumstances which always take control out of the hands of the woman - two doctors have to state that something is "wrong" with either the baby, or the mother (her physical and/or mental health would be jeopardised if she doesn't have the abortion.) I don't see why we can't fully legalise abortion but still have a term limit in place. So many people are now arguing "if we push for more liberal abortion laws, it could backfire and our rights could be rolled back!" As if women should just roll over and accept that our rights should/will forever be in the hands of men
I agree with this, it looks fun and I'm going to watch it but I'm so sick of seeing all this "not liking pink or something stereotypically feminine is INTERNALISED MISOGYNY!" talk around the movie. Femininity does not equal woman. Not being feminine isn't "misogyny"
I believe there is a TIM in the movie (of course there is, I think it’s mandatory now for a trans character in every movie and tv show now).
I remember the same guy was in a "woman-focused" horror film several years ago and some people were actually relieved that his character was a TIM rather than just slipping him into a group of women and acting like we're not supposed to notice he's a man ...
It’s so bloody irritating! Even if they don’t want to say ‘man’, they could at least say transwoman so people with only half on eye on the pictures would be aware of the truth.
Yes - the pink goblin on the left picture, and the green on on the right definitely have "stitches".
Well I'm a Tory so I'm very happy to see Rishi is on the same page as me!
I looked at mine and confirmed that I am the same!
, whichever sex you are? I've never managed to turn onto a bat yet -well, an Ole Bat - but that doesn't mean I'm not trying. I eat black pudding at least once a week.)Why is anyone referring to their adult daughter or son as a "kiddo", FFS?
I don’t see how feminists could vote for any of those partiesWell I'm a Tory so I'm very happy to see Rishi is on the same page as me!
Assuming this is the same person (huge coincidence if not) he was sent to prison in 2021 after criminal damage and assault on a security guard.
I can’t work out if Willoughby’s just a troll or actually believes his body chemistry is ‘more female than Martina’s’. If the latter, he probably does need to be in an NHS facility tbh (preferably one that indulges patients who think sticking a barcode on a wristband and typing the word female underneath it determines your sex).
The SDP are gender critical tooI don’t see how feminists could vote for any of those parties
I may have to investigate what my local independents position is.
