'The Barbie film isn’t the feminist propaganda it thinks it is,' writes abbiezlreynolds
First and foremost, I have to say it is a great movie. One that holds a mirror up to society in the most real - and in some moments quite an unnerving - way. It delves into the daily contradictory struggles women are faced with against a backdrop of unquestioned patriarchalism.
This or that. Male dominance or female dominance. Barbie Land begins as a matriarchy totally constructed for and by the success of women - who runs the world? Girls, right? But this extreme women-led world leaves the Ken’s feeling less than, a secondary character existing only to serve a purpose to Barbie, as and when she chooses. And when Ken discovers the indiscreet patriarchy of the real world he adopts the ideology and brings it back to Barbie Land, thus creating ‘Kendom’.
Barbie doesn’t love Ken and therefore refuses to live in a partnership with him. And from this, instead of allowing Ken and Barbie to simultaneously exist as valuable, strong characters, Barbie decides to become a human.
