That last one has to be a guy who doesn't understand why he is so attracted to the Kens.

Why Do All These Homosexuals Keep Sucking My Cock?

Look, I’m not a hateful person or anything–I believe we should all live and let live. But lately, I’ve been having a real problem with these homosexuals. You see, just about wherever I go these days, one of them approaches me and starts sucking my cock.

@HuShuo
Just a general observation, but I'm hoping there's still a place for 'doll culture' with kids. At 72, and a male, I could be a bit off on this, but...

Dolls are a palette for kids. It gives them a starting place for applying imagination, for creating stories from the get-go. It's a great tool for learning not only social constructs, but also expanding imagination, which impacts problem solving. It is a level of involvement that a movie or a video game cannot provide.

In short, dolls can be the bugaboo of conservatives. They unleash imaginative forces that hidebound conservatives find uncomfortable in the extreme.

As a man happily married to the opposite sex for 18 years, I understand. Gosling looks amazing and they couldn't have picked a better Ken.
