When Barbie premiered in theaters last summer, I, like many other women, rushed to see it during opening week. Another widely discussed scene in Barbie is when Margot Robbie, playing stereotypical Barbie, is talking to an older woman and tells her that she is beautiful. Leaderboard 2The most explicit continuation of surface level feminism is the entire plot of “weird” Barbie. She is ostracized by the other Barbies for her differences, and referred to interchangeably as “weird” and “ugly” Barbie. And isn’t that the age old story of women so much more than Barbie is?
