Barbie is TG?

This is so stupid that it doesn't rate being posted in the alert forum.

Make no mistake about the cwa though.  If you are anything that is varient to their beliefs you are a target.

WASHINGTON, D.C., Jan. 3, 2006 — The Concerned Women for America were ... well, concerned. Outraged, even. Was Barbie becoming part of the transgender movement?

On Dec. 30, CWA, a leading Christian conservative group, noted on its Web site that on the Barbie Web site, www.Barbie.com, "there is a poll that asks children their age and sex."

The age choices were 4 to 8 but children "are given three options for their choice of gender": I am a Boy, I am a Girl and I Don't Know.

Bob Knight, director of CWA's Culture and Family Institute, said Barbie manufacturer Mattel was being influenced by the "transgender movement."

To pose "this transgender question at little girls, they've really crossed the line," Knight said, who added that "bisexuality gender confusion" is the Web site's agenda, which is "very dangerous."

The concern comes after a conservative boycott of Mattel's American Girls dolls. The American Family Association and the Pro-Life Action League protested that some American Girls dolls were wearing "I Can" wristbands, which support Girls Inc. Girls Inc. is a national, nonprofit organization that promotes education and self-esteem programs, as well as sex education, and supports abortion rights and the acceptance of gays and lesbians. The Mattel-Girls Inc. partnership ended on Dec. 26.

Had to correct an opps on my part

I had to post this here rather than the humor section.


Does your little girl feel left out, un-validated and confused? Do you wish you could find something to make her feel less unusual? This Christmas, get the gift for the little tomboy in your family: Lesbian Barbie!

Lesbian Barbie isn't just any Barbie Doll; she's the Barbie Doll that dates other Barbies! Your little girl will love combing her long tail, and spiking up the top of her hair. Lesbian Barbie comes attired in a striking blue flannel, Levis, and REI hiking boots. Lesbian Barbie wears a tank top underneath, which shows off her efforts from weight training, as well as her I LOVE WOMYN tattoo.

Lesbian Barbie drives a Harley Davidson. Put her on her motorcycle, dressed in her black leather biker coat and big black boots, and Lesbian Barbie is ready for her date with Lipstick Lesbian Barbie. The Lesbian Barbie package also comes with a U-haul rental, for Barbie's first date.

Order now, and you'll also receive our bonus package, the Lesbian Barbie softball jersey. But wait! There's more . . .

The first 100 orders will also receive Ex-Girlfriend Barbie. They are inseparable.

I wonder what the CWA would have said if the results of the poll showed that there were a lot of boys that played with Barbie.

I know for one thing that my daughter would buy Lesbian Barbie.  She's a huge collector of them

transgender movement

Uh...did you all realize that you had a "movement" going on?  Coulda' fooled me....     Puh-leeze...   Amazing what people will say to attempt to incite hysteria within the US populous.  Leigh, perhaps this also would have been a candidate for your Paranoia thread?

Maybe a forum titled You ain't gonna belive this

Hi Leigh, I absolutely love barbie and ken for that matter and I also love those pixel chicks.

I used to play with Barbie dolls with my two sisters, we had a camper van and everything. She is cool. I didnt know that she was a TG but then again Ken didnt have anything downstairs to tell me he was a real man. ooooooh my god!

Sara.

[Shelley]

Hey Sara,

Have you got divorce Barbie, she's really expensive cause she comes with all Ken's stuff.

Shelley

[HelenW]

Has anyone ever tried to dress Ken in Barbie's clothes?

[Sara]

Helen I used to do that all the time, thought it was funny. The dresses were very tight fitting. He is such a spunk.

Shelley, Ken is now countersuing Barbie for emotional stress and wants all her clothes (hehe).

Sara.

Are they not the cutest guys ever. It wouldnt be too hard to pick which one I like?

Sara.

[stephanie_craxford]

  If my daughter could see this she would kick my butt 

Steph

[Sara]

Why is that Stephanie?

Sara.

[stephanie_craxford]

She is a huge Barbie collector.  She has one bedroom sloely for her Barbies.  I think she has about 200 of them still in their box and never been played with.

Steph

[Sara]

Stephanie, I bet you she would love to have those two kens to add to her collection. They are so cute and I think very trendy, I like the passenger side ken the best.

Sara.

I didnt know that she was a TG but then again Ken didnt have anything downstairs to tell me he was a real man. ooooooh my god!

Yep, they're looking in the wrong place for the transsexual. Ken is clearly FtM, post top surgery, post hormones, but no bottom surgery.

Dennis

[Sara]

Dennis, Barbie and Ken have both had plastic surgery. Here is what they looked like before the ops.



Although I can see your point, take a look at the picture below ken does look like you described.



Sara.

[Dennis]

Oh, I take that back. He's much too feminine to be an FtM. Perhaps he's MtF and has only had FFS.

One thing I wonder when reading this post ( I know i read it back when it was first posted but missed this).

CWA is Concerned Women for America

The leadership is made up of 5 women, and then this guy Robert H. Knight. http://gideon.cwfa.org/leadership.asp

Is he a Concerned Women?


I think he himself crossed the same transgender line that he talks about above when he became a leader of Concerned Women for America.
