A Complex Issue Deserves A Two Year Old With Barbie Dolls

The point of this anti-gay marriage ad is that marriage between one man and one woman is so simple even a person who can't feed herself and poops in her pants can illustrate it if her stage mother yells at her to "make the Barbies kiss and you'll get a cookie!" It's so stupid:

According to this logic, I know for a fact that a lot of stuffed animals of various genders and species were legally wed in the early 1980s. Stupid people are the dumbest! (Via Fey Friends.)

When I was that age playing with dolls, I'd always kill off Ken so that just the barbies would be alone together. Oh what sexy times they had.

I am really hungover and you wrote "poop" and it put poop in my head so when I watched this video I thought the title said "Vote YES on Poop 8". I would vote yes on that.

There is a remote possibility that poop was already in your head.

This commercial is the worst, basically for the reasons you described. If you told the little girl that two guys could get married, she wouldn't question it, because she's TWO YEARS OLD and WHATEVER YOU TELL HER will be accepted.

Dolls were always so confusing... there's a girl doll and a guy doll but, "guys can't play with dolls." So, if you were playing dolls then most likely one of your female friends would have to play the guy part and you know what kind of naughty, gender role crossing, sexulity discovering fun, happened then?

Me niether, I assume if anything of the sort happened, that it'd be diff. for everyone.

UMM....THEY ARE FRICKING DOLLS- and she's a child-people can be so utterly stupid.

Don't even make me get into when you discover that KEN AND BARBIE are actually brother and sister... that had me laughing for days.

Yeah, as a lesbian, I gotta say, when I was that girls age it didn't ever occur to me that "ken can only be with barbie and vice versa"
Buuuuut, I DID know that it was fun to cut barbies hair. And yet, I'm not a hairdresser.

Those dolls are not anatomically correct so they don't have anything hoo-hoos or wee-wees. Where my Prop on crotch-less dolls not being able to wed?

I think this girl is so cute, and shame on you who are badmouthing a child. You hypocrites, saying that these people are being haters, while this nice video shows no hate at all. The only hate I see is from you guys comments. I am not anti-gay, but these people have a point, I mean, we cant allow polygamy right? We cant allow people to marry their moms or dads, or a dog or a little 5 year old. Why do you believe they should let men marry men, and why stop there, why not marry a dog? or a 5 year old?
Your logic is missing. And your hypocrisy is nauseating.

The idea of a man marrying a man or woman marrying a woman being comparable to a person marrying a dog or any such prattle is the biggest lazy, simple & specious piece of poop. Well, besides Fred Jones.
YOUR logic is missing. Your ignorance is nauseating.
