That wasn't the message. I don't want to give away a spoiler, but think about the talk Barbie had with Ken after the vote. It wasn't to marginalize men. And also, it's OK for a fantasy world where women hold more power. You know, the opposite of 2 CEOs in the entire history of the company.

DP. If women have more power in the world, such as more CEOs, they will have to give up time raising their children. They will need a house husband or nanny or both - and few American women want that. This isn't the patriarchy, it's the choices of women.

Why the assumption that all women want to raise children? What? uhhhhhhhh.........

People can and will project anything they want onto Barbie. That’s one of the key points of the movie

I really liked it and am thrilled that it’s such a huge success.

OP here (my post above). I just got back from the movie and thought it was pretty stupid. Even my daughter (18) and her friends (18-22) said the same thing. At least we all had a night out together.

NP here. I am same a GenXer who was a tomboy and had no Barbies. Went with gay BFF who loved the movie but said it was the gayest movie he's every seen. I think he liked it more than I did, he def laughed more (although I thought parts were funny). It was so-so for me.

The movie was ok. The very last line was the best part IMO

Was the very last line "The End"?

DP and I feel like the movie oversimplified feminism. Isn’t the point to get to choose? Not just be a powerful ceo. I don’t want to be an executive at a large company. I want to work and then enjoy my free time. And I have the choice to do that. I just didn’t get the nuance in the movie’s message.

I thought that was dumb as hell. I was disappointed. So obvious.

Don't take it so personally.

But the lead human female said that. You can be a CEO or not. You can be a mom or not. That's the point.

I watched something else recently that reminded my of one of my privileges in life. It made me uncomfortable and sad that others have barriers that make life harder. It didn't make me feel like I was being attacked. I think some people who watched this couldn't recognize that they weren't being attacked (not you, PP). It's hard for people not see those privileges and not feel weird about them when they've benefitted from them.
