A lot of arguments I never made.

I don't really see many people here taking their scriptures about violence literally like the animals over there. They're writings from an ancient time, like the old testament you referenced. We can't apply those to life today, which is what Muslims I've known over here do.

Keep supporting the subjugation of women. That's the gateway stance.

Next you will want all bacon products banned.

Step 3 involves not using toilet paper.

Finally, step 4 is the chopping off of heads.

Scruffy hopes your family is prepared and safe.

No, i'm "literally" making a joke about the brutality of the Muslim religion and the ridiculousness of promoting such to little girls.


Do you think this will be a popular doll among non Muslims? Little blonde Southern Baptists will be pressured to convert due to a Barbie?

Right? I don't think many little white girls line up for a black Barbie or will for this one.

everywhere can now play with a Barbie who chooses to wear hijab!


Except once again the doll actually has no choice. It is being forced to wear it.

I think it’s ridiculous because it’s putting religious garb on a doll. The typical Barbie isn’t wearing a cross and carrying the Bible.

At the end of the day, whatever. Let the free market work. If people want to buy religiously oppressed Barbie then so be it. It’s a symptom of the larger problem in America.

I never understand the outrage over these things. You're free to buy it or not. The kid/parent buying this wants it. It's not being forced on anyone.

Why is it a big deal to make a doll every little girl can relate to?

this one reinforces toxic masculinity, the patriarchy, and good ole fashioned misogyny

Did you even read the quote? That's Mattel saying the doll chooses to wear a jihab. But the doll really isn't, it's forced on her by Mattel.

Scruffy can't wait to see the commercial.

"You can brush her ha...Ummm"

"She can drive the ca...Ummm"

"Have her dive into the pool after you change her into her swimsu..."

"You can use her sword to chop off..."

"She has amazing kitchen standing action!"
