Barbie Movie: Every man in Greta Gerwig’s film is a bigot or a loser — my daughter totally loved it! by Sarah Vine

Quote:
It’s a deeply anti-man movie, an extension of all that TikTok feminism that paints any form of masculinity— other than the most anodyne — as toxic and predatory, and frames women’s liberation not as a movement based on achieving equality between the sexes but as a cultural revenge vehicle designed to write out of the story altogether.

Every male character is either an idiot, a bigot or a sad, rather pathetic loser.

It’s one hour and 54 minutes of extended misandry, dressed up with a few fun dance routines and one or two (granted fairly decent) jokes.

If the roles were reversed, and a male director made a film about how all women were hysterical, neurotic, gold-digging witches, it would be denounced — quite rightly— as deeply offensive and sexist.

In a nutshell, Barbie and Ken set off on an adventure to the real world to discover the source of Barbie’s sudden and uncharacteristic anxiety.
