I also sobbed when I saw barbie appreciating an old woman, sitting beside her on the bench, because that’s what a woman is and that’s what being human is, and that’s what life is and she saw imperfection and age and realized it was beautiful.
She was so scared of being imperfect and having cellulite and aging and dying, and then she saw how beautiful all of those things could be, and she cried, and I cried.
And I understood. And I felt understood.
let yourself get lost in what you love for just a minute. let yourself go. feel it to your core. come home to yourself
Also, props to Allan???
He’s a doll most people have never heard of. He got discontinued forever ago cause he was perceived as gay by consumers and they didn’t like that.
But I love that he had an actual role in Barbie. He was very queer coded, yeah, but he didn’t like when all the Kens turned to Patriarchy. He was so uncomfortable that he wanted to abandon Barbieland all together. He knew it was wrong.
And then he helped the Barbies get themselves back. He had a pink jumpsuit and sunglasses and went out all stealthy to get the Barbies in the van. He even voted at the end to keep the constitution the way it was.
Big Allan fan over here.
