"Ken is gay and this is quite acceptable"

“KEN-Zeichen” (trad: KEN-sign), is the name of a series of images produced by Christian Bauer . who revitalized Barbie’s partner for her 50th birthday. Herein the dolls are naked, but sexless the way Mattel produced them without any genitals and the artist presents them on a large six feet screen. And here finally everything can be seen what reportedly is taboo in the public opinion: real boys are playing with their Ken doll.
Although when looking closer, you may discover that the artist has changed the scenes completely. Ken grew up from his Barbie world and found himself his own playmates like: a current football star, a Hispanic friend, a bodybuilder and many others, because here this artist finally allowed Ken to be what his creators never wanted him to be, although everybody knew: “Ken is gay and this is perfectly acceptable”, says Christian Bauer.
Already in the project stage of the planned exhibition, the outing of the Ken-doll caused a lot of public nuisance: MySpace banished the “Ken-Sign" - images and threatened to exclude the artist from their platform as well as disqualifying him from all Internet forums if he continues to insert more Albums of this kind. My Space was not interested even though this is artwork and with dolls only.

Despite all the turmoil a couple of art gallery owners from Berlin and even one from Kuala Lumpur in Malaysia showed their interest. “They would like to display the “Ken-Signs”, - reports Christian Bauer – “ while these images are nothing else but an artistic symbol for the interpretation of today’s metrosexuality; the society of our time decorates or tackles itself with this phenomen while searching for exciting news and is mainly addicted to something unusual or extravagant”.

CWA-Group says: Barbie renders our kids homosexual

Washington (queer.de) – The fundamental-christian lobby : “Concerned Women for America” (CWA) accuses Barbie-producer Mattel to advertise for the “homosexual agenda” with their plastic toys. Bob Knight, the (male) chairman of this “group of concerned women for America” also abuses the “Barbie-website”, because reportedly: children between 4 – 8 Years of age are questioned to state if they are female or male or just none of either of them. “Here is the basic idea that men are not born to belong to a predetermined sex, rather they can select their sexual identity for themselves”, quotes Knight. “Behind this, there is a system to implant the homosexual agenda in all the heads”. And this agenda should be realized preferably working with children: “Each child which is not sure, who it is, must be convinced to commit and perform sexual activities”.
The influence of the Barbie dolls has a terrible impact on young girls... and Knight continues:  “Barbie refrains the girls to believe the idea that womanliness is a basic Christian concept – which is to serve the lord, to marry, to have children and to build an own house… all this is not visible in Barbie’s world, there are only materialistic and financial interests”. This CWA-lobby has been founded 1979 and has 500.000 members according to their own published records.
