Ken Comes out and Says it
By Witzl
22 December 2006
Phil and Elli made me do this. I have an excuse: I've had just about enough of Christmas preparations and a real lack of sleep.


 

She’s got it all,

My Barbie doll

the grace, the face

the smile, the style

the coolest, trendiest of threads

I watch and see her turn their heads

Oh God, her outfits are

so fine –

Oh how I wish that they were mine!

the lace and feathers, so divine!

I stand and smile

A-c-c-o-m-p-a-n-y

My face composed

for all to see

So strong, so handsome

totally

But if they looked,

they’d really see:

This smiling straight-man isn't me

 

I wish – I wish that I could be

Gorgeous, dressed-up

Baaaaaarbie

Well, Thatllbemethen said it in the comment on one of your earlier Barbie-pieces. She's being shagged by Action-man. And even without legs he'll probably beat Ken, so Ken's all the smarter not to get involved with miss plastic...  
I wonder why everyone thinks Ken is gay. Just because he doesn't marry Barbie?
why is he gay?

It's because he has a six-pack, neat hair and the chicks dig him.

Enjoyed this. 
 
Poor Ken. Is he the only gay in the toy shop?

Well they always are aren't they? Rock Hudson, Rupert Everett, John Barrowman, I'm pretty sure Orlando Bloom ...so Ken HAS to be! 
 
Liked this very much, was giggling throughout. E
This is just getting silly!

They made you do it Mary? Huh?  
 
Is there some kind of group hysteria going on here? I'm in danger of losing my premier loon status!
