    She teaches little girls that women can be strong and independent and that scares the shit out of weak men.

      It’s hilarious seeing grown men freaking out about Barbies like they’re 6yr olds that were just told they can only play with “action figures.”

      If they’d go see the movie with an open mind they might get a fresh perspective and maybe even laugh a few times. I feel like little girls and these guys are who actually needs to watch it.

          Anyone who has to proclaim anything that loudly and consistently isn’t actually proclaiming that thing, and there’s probably something else going on in their heads.

          This works for “alpha male” bullshit, as well as super over-the-top patriotism, and… well, as far as I’m concerned, organized religion in general.

          And those even weaker men (often with poor hygiene/grooming and political views at one of the four extreme corners of the political compass, all white or chinese and who never socially matured past high school), who claim to be “nice guys” and then blame feminism, stronger men, women as a group altogether, men of other races, western culture and everything but themselves for their inability to get laid. They are so “nice” in fact, they are prone to leaving long, rude text messaging essays whenever a “female” refuses their clumsy attempts at seduction.
