As standards erode, even Barbie gets fat

CopperFox3c · 2016-01-28T23:29:20+00:00

Listen, if women want to make themselves - role models and toys included - into something that is completely unappealing to men, give them a pinch on the cheek and say "Good Luck with that, Missy". Then walk away laughing. Ignore them from that point forward.

Shit test passed.

Women are not entitled to male attention.

TheRealMewt · 2016-01-29T02:24:20+00:00

Bet you guys ten bucks that Ken either stayed the same size or started hitting the gym.

TheRabbitTunnel · 2016-01-29T02:37:49+00:00

People act like the one and only consequence of being overweight is that others wont be as attracted to you. Being overweight is unhealthy and decreases lifespan. We shouldn't be promoting people to be overweight, not because its unattractive, but because its unhealthy.

GraphicSeniorNudity · 2016-01-29T05:36:46+00:00

Shit, most American women would be happy to be as fit as fat Barbie

Literallyoprah · 2016-01-28T23:22:20+00:00

Ken has been gay for the last 15 pounds anyway.

bigcitytruth · 2016-01-29T00:32:11+00:00

The dolls will cause interesting conversation between a mother and her daughter, as little Susie will be saying, "Mommy, why can't my Fatass Barbie fit into the clothes of my friend's Barbie?"

popthatpill · 2016-01-29T03:41:27+00:00

I'm sure you'll be able to get SJW barbie in a decade or so

Look at the first picture again - it's already got blue hair.

MooseKingCloud · 2016-01-29T07:03:27+00:00

The older Barbies were only a reflection of the culture of the time. Now we see the shift in our culture from the nuclear family, values and expectations, to the state funded decentralized family structure.

Zemataitais · 2016-01-29T07:04:33+00:00

Let women believe they can let themselves go and not take care of their bodies. If males don't validate this behavior by not giving these women attention then they'll figure out pretty quickly what the deal is. Even internally they know getting "curvy" is not optimally attractive to most of the top males.

We have a problem with so many thirsty BP men driving this. Great for outcompeting them at the bar, horrible for the average quality of women.

commentatorX · 2016-01-28T23:50:22+00:00

No healthy little girl is going to want this. The only market this toy has is to delusional older women. No doubt frumpy mothers and Tumblrina older sisters will be practically forcing them into toy boxes. Such bitches have lots of disposabe for plastic shit. Clever toy company...

Barbie in a decade or so. She'll be even bigger than this new fat one, she'll have blue hair where she doesn't have Skrillexed scalp

Love it.

LetsGoAllTheWhey · 2016-01-29T11:36:49+00:00

Next will Mattel will introduce their new doll, Chad.

Chad has six pack abs and rails the new fat Barbie. Ken the cuck accepts this as Fat Barbie is just expressing her sexuality and its really all about equality of options.

MentORPHEUS · 2016-01-29T00:08:34+00:00

High Fructose Corn Syrup Barbie.

TBH, that is more "Marilyn Monroe Fat," than "Body Positive Tumblrina Fat." Would smash.

[deleted] · 2016-01-29T04:10:01+00:00

The thing is, there are plenty of redpill type of women out there who know this is all bullshit.

They know what men want, and growing the gut of a 50 year old alcoholic is not part of that.

Fuck, they are helping to encourage the fattening of other women. Just means less competition for themselves.

Genetics is a brutal, brutal game that doesn't care at all about "feelings," "trigger warnings," or any else of that bullshit. The same alpha guys are going to breed with the same top tier women, while the betas try to take care of what is left

buzzout · 2016-01-29T05:20:38+00:00

I wonder if the curvy one comes with tramp stamp decals.

rpthrowawayaway · 2016-01-29T12:41:01+00:00

At this rate it won't surprise me if eventually woman have to put in all the work men have to (like getting fit and actually being interesting with hobbies and aspirations). They are basically all starting to get the "just be yourself" that young men get in their early years.

Sarcasticus · 2016-01-29T16:14:36+00:00

This is a stupid decision by Mattel. Who buys dolls? Young girls. Young girls don't want to play with ugly, fat dolls. They want to play with pretty, skinny dolls - which is why Barbie has been a top toy for the past 60 years.

Appeasing SJW's is a poor marketing strategy. SJW's will not be buying the dolls. A sympathetic media will make a big fuss about how "Barbie reflects the growing influence of body-positivity" or some other buzzword-marketing bullshit. And fat Barbie will launch to great fanfare.

But a few weeks later, the toy will be quietly axed from the toy line due to poor sales - just like every other time any company has tried to introduce a "realistic" (read: fat and/or ugly) doll.

I would hope the idiots at Mattel would learn their lesson, again - but I'm not holding my breath.

notmyusualreddit · 2016-01-29T05:54:59+00:00

Fine. The Bluepill world has been feeding men false blue pill bullshit for years and making them unable to find a partner in their prime.

Now, the bluepill world can feed lies to women telling them its ok to be fat, its ok to be bitchy, its ok to be slutty, and when they cant find actual commitment partners in their prime, theyll be just a tiny bit closer to that equal they wanted.

Archwinger · 2016-01-29T15:07:14+00:00

Geez. Okay, if they want to make Barbie regular looking instead of skinny, fine. But no need to make her an obese cow. That's going to give fit girls body image issues.

thenemaxofredpill · 2016-01-29T00:41:01+00:00

Barbie kinda got a gut now.

[deleted] · 2016-01-29T08:23:45+00:00

Barbie™: Now with added gunt.

zarus · 2016-01-29T12:28:06+00:00

This ploy isn't going to work, it'll be like New Coke. A Reuters video talked about how "movie tie in toys," basically Disney's toy line, were a large part of the reason they were losing market share. The Disney appeal is classic Barbie turned up to 11, they won't get anywhere by pushing this.

aguy01 · 2016-01-29T13:16:39+00:00

When are they gonna take he-man off the roids?

PantsonFire1234 · 2016-01-29T02:52:45+00:00

In all fairness i'd probably fuck the barbie on the left. Fuller ass and such.

hke12 · 2016-01-29T13:49:05+00:00

Well the US average is that fat (or even more)

So if most people they see are like that they'll think that is the normal . I don't think this can sell in Europe.

I like the blue tumblerina hair though, tells us a lot about the target audience.

claptilley · 2016-01-29T15:04:27+00:00

I'm naturally attracted to chubby girls. A big turn off for me is a skinny blonde. That said, we don't need to condone letting ourselves go.

-reboot · 2016-01-29T02:06:06+00:00

I would buy the original any day. I mean if I were a man that buys Barbies.

vezokpiraka · 2016-01-29T10:46:59+00:00

I really think this will flop.

Have you heard any kid want something that isn't the greatest?

I always bought the best superhero, the most powerful, the funniest.

Girls do the same. Why in the name of God would anyone buy the fat doll?

B_Campbell · 2016-01-29T03:08:06+00:00

I don't really see this as an erosion of standards. I just see it as a way to sell more dolls at 20 bucks a pop. My daughter now needs a full set. I can sell one to every ethnicity. This is a logical economic decision not the fall of man.

waldo888 · 2016-01-29T05:00:49+00:00

This is probably good thing. Small children will have fat cat in the corner to pick on. She will be the outcast unless all of the Barbie line becomes obese haha that would actually be hilarious.

EscortVoyeurAdmin · 2016-01-29T01:47:06+00:00

Gross, I thought they'd make Barbie normal but they made her fat.

Luckyluke23 · 2016-01-29T08:39:59+00:00

Make no mistake, the heads of Mattel are cynical businesspeople through and through. They have been struggling for a while now, and they have decided that success now lies (literally) in telling their fat customers that struggle is overrated and acceptance is wonderful.

you can't blame them though, if they don't bring in the $$$ they are all out of a job.

ErenYeager91 · 2016-01-29T13:12:05+00:00

This won't happen. Diet industry is just too fucking big. They won't give up all that money for nothing. And as long as we don't give attention to fatties, most women will want to be in shape. Chads dick is a great motivator.

[deleted] · 2016-01-29T13:12:46+00:00

The blue pill world has put us in a situation where it is acceptable to eat pizza and donuts daily. Burgers are a normal lunch. Fries are a daily vegetable. And rather than do the right thing, most people would rather just accept themselves the way they are and demand others accept them. Well, my family won't do that. We will eat healthy in an unhealthy world.

bertmaklinFBI · 2016-01-29T14:05:36+00:00

Who the fuck cares. I had plenty of teenage mutant ninja turtles when i was a kid. Never tried to become a post op ninja turtle.

reasonableman1 · 2016-01-29T16:00:14+00:00

Ken will be retired for an entire series of males fulfilling all the roles of a traditional husband (one Chad, one Bux, one paternal figure etc).

Ken may not be retired, but I expect that the rest of it is true.

Next up: Dad bod He-Man!

logicalthinker1 · 2016-01-29T16:18:39+00:00

The original barbie is actually pretty gross in terms of body type.

Women are supposed to have some fat. They biologically are supposed to. Just as long as it's in the right places and not too much. The problem is that curvy has come to mean anything that's not skinny. It's very specific. It doesn't mean fat. It refers to women who have a slender waist but have bigger hips and a butt.

postvasthrowaway · 2016-01-29T16:22:47+00:00

Holy shit, Mattel went full Lammily.

Look at the video of this guy who designed it.

You can buy acne, cellulite, and stretch marks for her, to make her "more real."

Remember girls, average is beautiful. Never improve!

MeatCurtainRod · 2016-01-29T17:12:44+00:00

The ONLY thing this means is the free enterprise market is now catering to a larger (pun intended) demographic of obese people who want to blame society and not themselves for stuffing shit into their pie hole. And this market is run solely by women for women, and a bigger demographic means more profit. Worst of all is they are hiding this fact and their front is the whole bullshit idea of "fat is healthy and don't let no man tell differently". Go figure.

[deleted] · 2016-01-29T17:58:51+00:00

These new Barbies are still thinner than the women that complained about Barbies in the first place.

squirtingispeeing · 2016-01-29T18:28:46+00:00

What's wrong with the "fat" doll? She looks perfectly normal to me.

The one on the left doesn't look real. The one on the right has a ScarJo body. What are you all complaining about?

HoundDogs · 2016-01-29T18:52:11+00:00

I know there's a lot of shit we can extrapolate from this due to the gender political bullshit we're seeing these days, but honestly the "Barbie" doll hadn't been changed for half a century.

I mena, boys identify with toys and characters when their children. I kind of understand the move to make Barbie more proportionate if the have the technology to do so (Where they may not have decades ago).

The "Fat acceptance" part of this is another story.

NiggerBaboon · 2016-01-29T20:22:45+00:00

Don't imagine this is the end, either. I'm sure you'll be able to get SJW barbie in a decade or so. She'll be even bigger than this new fat one, she'll have blue hair

Curvy Barbie already has blue hair, check your own pic.

This isn't SJW enough: I want tranny Kenny.

TheSliceman · 2016-01-30T17:22:01+00:00

Except for her neck.

Her neck is that of a petite woman. Giving young impressionable girls the idea that one can be morbidly obese, yet still keep a neck that does not have two, three, or even four chins.

Real responsible Barbie. Real responsible.

Nom_de_sequitur · 2016-01-31T02:33:02+00:00

Dating toddlers is not uncommon?

tolerantman · 2016-02-04T15:39:09+00:00

I am going to sit and wait until they make Batman and Superman fat or skinny...

AtlasAtlasAtlas · 2016-01-29T03:04:41+00:00

I don't understand how "skinny" barbie is unrealistic. Every girl I've ever date has had a similar body.

tallwheel · 2016-01-29T06:54:26+00:00

I think they could have done a better job. Sure, the original never looked like realistic proportions. If original Barbie were real, she probably wouldn't even have wide enough hips to give birth without a C-section. She'd be a hideous monster with no hips or butt.

On the other hand, the new Barbie does look a bit overweight to me. Sure, she is definitely more realistic than the original, but there is something about those fat legs, or maybe it's the skirt she's wearing. She looks a bit pudgy.

Surely, they could have made something in-between. The new one is far too close to the "fat zone".

[deleted] · 2016-01-29T09:28:34+00:00

That's definitely too far, but the original does have genuinely inhuman proportions. Why does it have to be so extreme?

The_Man11 · 2016-01-29T02:27:27+00:00

Little girls will vote with their dollars. Original Barbie will win.

batfish55 · 2016-01-29T15:08:54+00:00

I'll love it when Hipster Ken comes out to complement Fat Barbie. With that stupid fucking overly manicured beard molded into his face, and his 'look at me, I'm being fashionable!' thick-rimmed glasses sculpted around his girly eyes. Hey, they can make his clothes and accessories as extensive as thin Barbie (because Fat Barbie can only wear mu-mus).

MrOaiki · 2016-01-29T07:46:11+00:00

So you consider the body shape of that curvy Barbie to be fat? I don't.

pinenuts · 2016-01-29T11:43:14+00:00

If you think the new one is fat your mind has been fucked up by Mattel and the gays running the fashion establishment. The old barbie is the image of a sick person . I've employed a woman which was the closest thing I have seen to a human barbie, impossible proportions, bolted on tits, was dating a personal trainer and spent much of her free time at the gym. Truly un-appealing.

It seems any guys have also had their taste fucked up by that plastic abomination. Christina Hendricks is where it's at.

arealbigboss · 2016-01-29T08:30:07+00:00

Since young girls aren't completely fucked in head and aren't regressively left-wing. They're going to see through the bullshit and play with the proper Barbie.

angryuser_trp · 2016-01-29T06:08:08+00:00

Guys, wake the fuck up and look at the fucking doll.

This curvy barbie has nothing to do with fat acceptance. The barbie finally looks like a healthy woman and not a fucking anorexic cunt.

[deleted] · 2016-01-29T10:29:43+00:00

Yet you thirsty beta males still grovel at the feet of ugly chicks like dogs

foldpak111 · 2016-01-29T15:10:17+00:00

Excessive weight signals genetic weakness. End of story.

harami_number1 · 2016-01-29T14:15:12+00:00

Can we please stop being so edgy about every single thing? The Barbie doll is a real problem because you've got 12 year old girls refusing to eat their food because they want to stay thin like Barbie, risking malnutrition and a variety of health issues.

Seriously i get that the whole HAES stuff is bullshit but seriously stop trying to find shit where there's none. Makes you look like a bunch of jobless NEETs that have nothing better to do with your lives.

[deleted] · 2016-01-29T06:53:31+00:00

All women are extremely insecure, and are trying to overcompensate for their insecurity in all of their actions. Their body is one of them. You think any of the ones that are aggressive about how comfortable they are with their body are actually comfortable with the fact that they are obese? Nah its just something they say, hoping if they can convince everyone else, they might be able to convince themselves too. This isnt just with bodies, its about everything. They always take everything they do a step too far to show to the world that they're comfortable with it.
