The international NGO CitizenGo has published a petition, this time the object of the protest is Mattel's transgender Barbie doll.
“The toy manufacturer Mattel has decided to launch a transgender Barbie doll. Perhaps their intention was to get free advertising by generating discussion?
This is a sure path to failure, as other companies trying to conform to an aggressive LGBTQ ideology have proven. For example, recently, Disney's stock plummeted after they turned their backs on their target audience: families. This all happened because Florida's governor introduced a child protection bill that would protect the right of parents to educate their children. In revenge, the company promised that 50% of their characters would be LGBTQ people.
If families aren't partners in Disney's campaign, they won't be in Mattel either. We warn the company about this.
A message to Mr. Zbojniewicz, the head of Mattel's stock: Launching a transgender Barbie is a direct path to the company's decline.
Unfortunately, money is the only language these corporations understand. So let's send a strong message to the manufacturer of Barbie: Remove the transgender Barbie from the market, or stop counting on families as customers.
We don't need aggressive ideologies in the nursery!
The company's executive vice president, Lisa McKnight, announced the decision with these sentences:
"We're proud to highlight the importance of inclusion and acceptance for people of all ages and recognize Laverne's significant cultural impact with a Barbie collection."
The actor allegedly suffered from gender identity disorder at the age of 11. As a teenager, it's natural to question many things, even about your own gender. But it is a grave mistake to reinforce these doubts in children and to give them transgender toys. Hormone treatments and sex reassignment surgery worsen depression and increase suicide rates.
We will not put a Barbie in the hands of any child with such a message!
For 60 years, Barbie has been promoted as a symbol of female beauty and has often received criticism for unrealistic expectations. This is now compounded by the embodiment of a man's body image disorder.
Mattel joins the progressive wave, which is said to be accepting, except with those who believe God created man male or female, and who believe only those two genders exist.
Mattel has to choose: either follow the fashionable LGBTQ indoctrination, taking the risk that the majority will turn away from them and not buy their products, or remain on the ground of normality.
Until Mattel withdraws their transgender Barbie, we will not buy their products!
Let's protect our children from this ideological battle!
