    Yes, this is for real. More evidence of the decline of Western civilization.

      Come to think of it, this Ken doesn't really look like he's all that interested in Barbie.

      Maybe he should be called "Palm Beach Closeted Chickenhawk Ken."

      Now come on. Ken is "sugar's daddy." It's about the dog, not Ken, lol.

      Mattel shows how far they have fallen.

      This clearly speaks to the society, we have become.

      Sugar Daddy Ken ????

      How about, demented Mattel ???

      This is the second friendly thread I've visited today. No insult intended Beau but Wolfie hasn't even dropped it yet. Is there a tea party somewhere?

      Oh I don't know, I think trailer trash Barbie was a cute concept. I think we need a beer bellied, chain smoking, tattoed Ken who drives a 92 Camaro with a primer gray fender and a temporary registration ticket in the window. I mean Christmas is just around the corner.

      Wow just read the article about Sugar Daddy Ken. He fit's the "Sterotype" of a gay man. Geez. I also read one of the links posted in the comments above.

      Ken and Barbie named after the founders children. In away kid of cool. The Ken doll is also anatomically incorrect. Ken married had a family and was a closet homosexual and hid it so well the family, including wife didn't know till he was diagnosed with aids in 1990 and died in 1994. Now that is sad. Sad that he had to hide who he really was.

        I called my 11 yr old daughter over and ask her what did she like the Ken doll, And her first response is that a girl. I told her No then she said No because it looked all wrong. She said she'd take the dog but not the doll. Its looks to much like a girl. (her words exactly) I dont like the name nor do i care for the appearence of the doll. I dont recall seeing anyone dressing like that in Palm Beach. I wonder how many little girls approved of this doll. Mine hated it. She said change his clothes and make him more manly.

            Maybe we could arrange a meeting between Sugar Daddy and American Girls homeless doll. Yes indeed it is real but I don't recall her name.

              I wonder how long it will be before they come out with the " Don't ask don't tell" G.I. Joe doll.
