:o
That’s great.
Now all they need to do is make a mistress for Ken, and the kids will have all the tools they need to train for the harships of adult life.
Bastards. Everyone wants to be an attention whore these days.
I’m reminded of the old joke about Divorce Barbie…you know, the one that cvomes with all of Ken’s stuff. rimshot
The question is, will Blaine the Australian boogie border fair any better than Ken?
Bah, Ken is suck a dork anyways…so does this mean Barbie’s going out with GI Joe now?:hahaha;
In other news, mattel announced that in an effort to be “socially proactive” they would be releasing “lesbain life partner lauren”, the homosexual companion to the traditional “barbie.”
Heh. I don’t even lik Barbie. IT jsut seems so silly to me.
wow imagine that… a lesbien barbie! thats a real great toy for kids!

Thank you for stating the blatantly obvious.
What about a Militant Feminist Barbie? Or a 45-year-old-with-two-kids-and-on-Welfare Barbie?

Uh, any barbie can be a lesbian barbie.
What? Stop looking at me like that. You know you’ve all done it too.
remembers the days of Gangsta Btch Barbie and 2-Pac Ken, from SNL*
Good times…
Bah. How come they’ve never come up with the “jobs” that I had my Barbies as… such as “kick yo ass cyborg Barbie,” or “check out these stuffed animal summons Barbie” or “taste my deadly blade Barbie” or… etc. etc.
Bah. Barbie has to be the biggest fad-rider (not to mention rip-off artist) in the history of kids’ characters.
It’s as if being Barbie- THE most famous doll in the world- wasn’t enough. EVERY time something was a big hit, you could bet your butt that Mattel would come out with a Barbie Version of it. Remember Baywatch Barbie? Or Troll Barbie? Superhero Barbie? Swan Lake Barbie? And most recently- Witch Barbie? (THAT one really surprised me- you’d think the bad press Witch characters got with conservatives -remember the furor over Harry Potter?- would steer Mattel away from the concept.)
Anyway, I’ll bet this is an attempt to revitalize Barbie; they want to use the name but reinvent her life, probably to appeal to modern girls (and their parents) who aren’t into “Traditional Married Family Goodness”.
OR, it could be a big setup, inspired by Soap Operas. Then, in a few months, we will get-
“BARBIE AND KEN TOGETHER AGAIN!!”
:thud:

Oh, I’m having so much fun!
Well Barbie, we’re just getting started
Oh, I love you Ken!
I guess they finally finished.:mwahaha:
I think this is symbolic.
Seriously, think about it: people are brainwashed into believing they have to fit a certain image. Now, the image reflects the people in how common break ups and divorces have become in America.
Well, geez, the last thing we need are girls being raised to think its chic to breakup with their significant others 
My point exactly.
There’s a fine line between creating an impossible image, and thrusting reality down the throats of five-year-old girls. At least they didn’t have Ken go fuck one of Barbie’s friend dolls; now THAT would have been bad.
