You haven't achieved maximum diversity without this.

I still laugh remembering the cartoon from years ago with some little girl screaming to mom that her brother was dressing his Alien doll with her Barbie doll’s wardrobe.

Is there a transgender Ken, with removable schmeckel for when he is transitioning?
A transgender Barbie, with removable boobies and attachable dickie?
Even better, a spectrum KenBarbie, that constantly moves between the 58 genders, changing every day.

My Barbies always preferred the manlier GI Joe.

Man Bun Ken is a flaming homo and there are at least two others that look light in the loafers.

Will the liberal colleges be stocking their Safe Spaces with homo Ken dolls right alongside the Play-Doh® and the Little Guy's First Training Bra® ?

“I find man buns loathsome.”

After meeting several men thusly equipped I now take the man bun to mean, unemployed or lowly employed and living at home.

What is funny about Mattel doing the man bun is that again they are behind the times. I think man buns are out after hitting big 2 years ago. However, changing up Ken to get more buyers is a great capitalistic approach and wish them well. I have their stock so I am biased.

I was never a Barbie fan. When I did get one, we’d blow her up with firecrackers.

I dont know the joke but I do know that I refused to buy my girls Ken and instead bought GI Joes for Barbie to hang around eith. Ken always had sugar in his britches wnd I didnt want any of that leaking on to my girls.

Omg I thought I was the only person who noticed this unbelievably awful man-bum, sweater, skinny-jean, hipster saying “bad mama jamma” in that car commercial. It’s so bad it must be parody, right?

“The new Ken dolls all look gay.”

They always did.

But little girls shouldn’t know anything about that, and in the past they didn’t.

I think GI Joe also had an M16, a Bowie knife and lots of other cool gear like canteens and grenades. Ken may have had a convertible car, but so did Barbie.

My Barbies had a thing for bad boys. Joe had Kung-Fu grip and a motorcycle. And sometimes when he and Barbie had a date, he would show up at her beach house riding the wooden elephant my dad had brought back from Thailand. Ken couldn't compete with that.

In a thread of memorable posts, this is the one I'll remember. LMAO.

We'd have made a match. My GI Joe's always had a thing for hot crazy chicks.
