    Virtually every male character in that film is portrayed negatively, and the feminist messaging is very clear. I’d say that qualifies as demonizing.

      I knew their was a reason I didn’t want to see that movie. I just didn’t know what it was until now.

      What does negatively mean in this context? What are some examples? I haven’t seem the movie.

        Here’s a decent enough summary of the plot. The film depicts all the Kens as idiotic, shallow, patriarchy-loving simpletons who are dependent on their Barbie counterparts and many men in the Real World as misogynistic assholes.

          I could see how for some women that would be a not entirely unrealistic experience of the men in their lives. Especially if they were raised in more conservative states. Even to the extent that it may not be ideal (and I’m assuming it’s not being mischaracterized here), it seems like such a minor thing. How many cultural war battles have come and gone and been forgotten without the culture actually changing in any significant way? I’d wager a fair number.

            Okay, I’m pretty sure you just willfully don’t want to see my point, so I’m going to bid this thread adieu.

              I see it, I just don’t think it’s as significant or important as you do.
