Ep 114: Life in Plastic: Unpacking Patriarchy in Barbie


Listen Later

Life in plastic is truly fantastic…just like the Barbie movie.

I went and saw Barbie recently, and fuuuuck, I loved it. It was so funny, so lighthearted…it even got a tear or two out of me. I’ll be honest.

(Ryan Gosling with a fake tan and platinum blond hair…not quite so fantastic. But I digress.)

However, one thing in particular stuck out to me about the Barbie movie…its portrayal of patriarchy and the way it so clearly centered on the conflict between masculine vs. feminine energy.

Because here’s the thing: the women being adored and admired for being in positions of power while the men were scorned for just being Kens? That’s actually still the fucking patriarchy at work.

Let me tell you why…and what I think we actually need to do in order to reach equilibrium between masculine and feminine energy.
