That was the most asexual movie I've ever seen and I am here for it.

Someone tell me if I’m being to sensitive but I keep seeing ppl on tiktok making edits of Barbie and posting slideshows with Barbie saying that she’s a lesbian and it lowkey makes me really sad and frustrated and want to cry bc isn’t Barbie aroace? She never shows any romantic attraction to anyone the entire film and says outright that she doesn’t have reproductive organs. Like we get so little rep and then just bc a character doesn’t show attraction to the male lead they’re automatically labeled lesbian by the fandom and idk that just annoys me a bit but idk if I’m being to sensitive about it.

but the hot take that y’all aren’t ready for yet is that all the barbies and kens in barbieland are asexual. when ken suggests that he stay over because he and barbie are quote “boyfriend/girlfriend” and she asks “to do what?” and he says “…i honestly don’t know” it’s because they may be a reflection of stereotypical human relationships in the real world, but they lack any of the substance beyond the superficial. this is supported when barbie explicitly states that she doesn’t have a vagina and ken doesn’t have a penis (despite ken’s insistence that he quote “has all the genitals,” okay intersex king). therefore if neither barbie nor ken have genitals and presumably no sexual organs or biological functions (such as the need to eat/drink/bathe with real water/etc. as shown in the film), then none of the barbies or kens should experience sexual attraction or desire, just like they don’t experience most of the human emotion spectrum (perhaps making an exception for weird barbie in this case, who remarks about wondering what “plastic blob [ken] has got going on in those shorts” to paraphrase. i really don’t have an answer for this one, maybe she’s bisexual or maybe she’s just being weird. who’s to say). ergo (at least prior to main barbie becoming human and having her vaginoplasty surgery), she and the rest of the residents of barbieland are canonically asexual by default and any sexualized projection onto them are merely that: projections. that all being said, barbie can be anything, including an ace homoromantic non-binary trans woman. in this essay i will—

digital fanart of Barbie from the barbie (2023) movie in her cowgirl outfit consisting of a sleeveless pink v-cut vest with magenta stars on the collar, pink bell-bottom pants, a pink bandana with a white pattern, and a white hat with a thin pink band with small spaced white dots all around.

top left drawing has barbie drawn from the chest up with a soft smile. Her right hand is covering the right side of her face as the warmth and the light of the evening sun bathes her.

top right drawing has barbie drawn from the lower thighs up looking off into the distance. while her facial expression is plain, there's a look of worry yet curiosity to it. (To the left corner of her are drawn the aromantic and asexual colors into the shape of two hearts in their respective order. She is not confirmed to be aromantic asexual but rather is something I personally headcanon her to be.)

the middle drawing of her has barbie drawn from the upper thighs up with her arms stretched out in a jazz hands motion. She has a big smile on her face as she proudly states, "I'm Barbie!" she has small gold sparkles drawn around her face as to give a sort of theatrical pizzaz to her declaration.
