Stanley Colorite is The Barbie Man. Dude’s collection is worth almost 80,000 bucks. Holy shit, why did I give mine away when I was a kid?
Effeminate gay guys take a ration of shit from everybody. Insecure straight guys ridicule their “femininity.” Insecure GAY GUYS do the same. If someone is very “queeny,” they’re often seen as comedic relief or an object of derision by society. Fuck that! Let gender expression express itself how it wants to! Be who you are! [insert any empowering cliche directive here]! “Embrace The Gay” will be an occasional feature celebrating the gay men in our society who could give nary a fuck and live their lives as who they are. If your wrist is limp, you wanna wear short shorts and a spangled thong, and you consider “eyeliner” to be one of your talents, strive on! That doesn’t make you any less of a man. Let’s not forget who started shit at Stonewall, hmmm?
Get into Stanley and his Barbies in the vid below.
I applaud this, and I also have to ask if posting this on International Women’s Day was mere happenstance or not… 🙂 just curio.
Sadly, if the Barbie’s were in the original packaging they’d be worth hundreds of thousands of dollars. Stanley is only one of the many Barbie collectors that surround us…
Hurray for “Embrace the Gay”. That’s sure to stir up some of the internalized homophobia and judgments from many of those who comment here. FUN!
