#dolphin magic

Thank you! And I'm sorry it took me so long to get to this, I took a break for a while. These are the best colors I can get with that shirt, unless there's another shirt he wears that I don't remember?

Fellas,, is it gay to learn to swim like a mermaid?

Next up, @shinpoochy, who created a piece based on Barbie Dolphin Magic! 🐬

Preorders are open until February 18th. Don't forget to snag a copy!

First of all, lesbian!Barbie. I just find it highly peculiar that if Barbie has an “ultimate form” and it’s not pure pink-on-pink, for some curious reason, they like to go orange-on-pink and even with a dash of white.

I mean, you’re very welcome to headcanon her as bisexual because you also ship her with Ken, but like honestly I just watched 36 Barbie movies and there were like maybe three where Ken and Barbie were a couple and yeah personally I don’t need it and I love that the ultimate princess, the ultimate fairy and the ultimate mermaid forms of Barbie all feature her in lesbian colors, so I’m very much down for lesbian!Barbie.

And, well, as you can see three out of 36 is not that much and while it did speak to me as a lesbian, what stood out far more was the fact that all the female love-interests - the female characters I found were actually shipable with Barbie’s character - were all decked out in bisexual colors.

It’s fascinating that they only get a darker pink, much purple, blue and in some cases even combinations of two or all three of them - it’s almost like green, red, orange, yellow, white, black, brown and all the shades those come in don’t really exist. Sure, if Barbie is in a trio of friends, they’re usually featuring these three colors plus green. But somehow, Barbie movies are not too hot on red or yellow and rarely use orange.

Now, those characters I find shipable with Barbie are usualy her love-rival-turned-new-best-friend, her already very close best friend, the helpful new person to aid her during a quest who then ends up becoming her friend.

And I just, I find it fascinating that I can arrange all the characters I ship with Barbie in... a bisexual flag. I mean, seriously, there are more than those three colors and the fact that they always seem to gravitate back to those, particularly in combinations with each other, is very striking to me.

And look, I’m not saying Barbie has a gay agenda, but I’m definitely saying Barbie is a lesbian and she has a type - gorgeous, loyal bisexuals who are willing to help her save the day.

There’s... no point to this post. I just, after the post, got curious to see if I was only imagining that so I looked every single Barbie movie up again to check the color-schemes of the potential female love-interests and then I really wanted to arrange them as a bi-flag. I figured someone else may also find this delightful, so why not post it.
