Transgender Actor Hari Nef to Feature in New Barbie Film

Transgender Actor Hari Nef to Feature in New Barbie Film Transgender model and actor Hari Nef will feature in the upcoming new Barbie film, according to reports.

Based on the classic Mattel toy Barbie, marketed at young girls, the film will feature transgender Hari Nef as detailed in a promotional image the transgender actor shared on social media.

Nef tweeted a poster of the film featuring the actor in full-character costume.

“This Barbie is a doctor,” the poster extols.

Nef also released a previously written letter to the film’s director Greta Gerwig after it was revealed that the “Transparent” actor could not participate in the movie due to scheduling conflicts, The Daily Caller reported.

In the letter, ef asked Gerwig and Robbie to “fudge” the schedule so the actor could participate.

As Pink News reported:

Nef begins the letter by acknowledging how the people involved with the film, including Gerwig and Robbie, “played no small role in cultivating my love of sitting in the dark in front of big screens for an hour or two,” before describing how the monumental impact of Barbie in popular culture contributed to her “need” to join the film.

“Identity politics and cinema aren’t my favourite combination, but the name BARBIE looms large over every American woman,” she wrote. “Barbie’s the standard; she’s The Girl; she’s certainly THE doll.”

Barbie going ‘woke’ is nothing new, unfortunately.

Last year, Mattel announced the release of its newest Barbie doll to celebrate transgender actor Laverne Cox to “highlight the importance of inclusion and acceptance.”

“We are proud to highlight the importance of inclusion and acceptance at every age and to recognize Laverne’s significant impact on culture with a Tribute Collection Barbie,” said Lisa McKnight, Executive Vice President and Global Head of Barbie and Dolls at Mattel, when the announcement was made.

As CBS News reported, the company worked directly with Cox to sculpt the doll and develop the gown.

The Tribute Collection will also honor Lucille Ball for being a trailblazer for women in entertainment and Queen Elizabeth II, who was honored with a doll just ahead of her Platinum Jubilee and timed for her 96th birthday.

Cox’s doll was also released in advance of her 50th birthday on May 29.

She held a Barbie-themed party on Thursday to celebrate both her birthday and her doll.

Male women are superior to all other women.

Finally, they are admitting there isn’t a girl talented and pretty enough to play the part, so they must use a male.

Another disgusting narcissistic being lauded by Democrats because he likes to put on make-up and women’s clothes.

Because these leftists are, fundamentally, narcissists, they can’t see that the message to the little girl is “screw your little innocent princess fantasies or your dream of becoming a healthy, beautiful fun loving teen woman. It’s all about US, the failed boys who are here to usurp your image. We’re proud frogs and, one day, you might be a frog, too. We certainly hope so, as it will help us feel more normal!”

“We are YOU, little girl!”

Back in the 50’s, Milton Berle was a famous TV comedian whose show had skits of him and his guest stars like Bob Hope and others dressed up as women.

They couldn’t do that today............

And Flip Wilson’s Geraldine in the 70s. But it always felt like a comedy skit, not a weapon.

I’ve been noticing some TV commercials where they are trying to pass off trans men as women.
