Thankfully not anatomically correct — this time.

Even as the liberal ruling class stampedes Western Society into an abyss of utter corruption, there is such a thing as pushing the progressive agenda a little too fast:
The supermarket giant Tesco has apologised for advertising an inflatable “gay best friend” doll on its website. The figure was described as being “ready to give you fashion advice, tell you if your bum looks big and b**ch about everyone who doesn’t wear Jimmy Choos”.
The figure, which was described as an “amusing gift” and “suitable for three- to four-year-olds”, appeared with the description: “If SEX in the City and Will & Grace taught us anything, it’s that g*y best friends are in this season. We’ve had the manbag, we’ve had leg warmers and iPhone fever, now it’s time for the new craze.”
The doll was pulled off the shelves after moonbats complained about the word “gay” being censored, and about the product reinforcing negative stereotypes.
Incidentally, Tesco also pulled a Halloween costumes labeled “Psycho Ward” and “Mental Patient” recently, knuckling under to complaints that they “stigmatised people with mental health issues” — that is, homicidal maniacs. Enjoy reruns of the Halloween movies if you can next month; before long they will be banned for their insensitive portrayal of Michael Myers.

Do a search for “Earring Magic Ken.” It was around 20 years ago or so, an extended family member had one. :-/
Hahahahahaha.
TYVM!
A blowup doll? OMG! Next thing there will be a strap-on accessory.
Back in the day, this could have made it to Maimway Toys, but it was probably too taboo even for SNL.

Extended family member, huh. Ok. Wink, wink, nudge, nudge, say no more.
I worked for a man who invited all his employees over to his house for a party. He had an entire room filled with Ken dolls, most still in their boxes, of course, to preserve their value.
He later tried to join the Navy after 9/11. I think it Was our navy, though I cannot be certain.
Reminds me of Dan Aykroyd sketch. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=L3dq9dxEf2c
