This.

And anyway...Why does a story about a man who enjoys sex warrant a whole news piece? "Jack Ryan, the Yale-educated designer who popularized Barbie, was a 'full-blown seventies-style swinger' with 'a manic need for sexual gratification.'" What? There was a man, who enjoyed farking, and doing it with a lot of different women?!? STOP THE PRESSES!"

He was a GUY. It's endemic, for chrissakes.

I use to have my Gi Joes do bad things to barbie.

sensationalism is sensational!

I hear Barbie likes the ladies.

"Despite marrying and having three kids, Ken was a closeted gay"

My life is complete.

I didn't know someone wrote my biography!

Speaking of farking, and to the right of the page is this.

Ken died of AIDS. Is that a metaphor for American disillusionment in the second half of the twentieth century or what?

The story of the perv with Barbie up his behind.

Steve Bosell agrees.

/unavailable for comment

From Wikipedia:

"It isn't generally known that Jack Ryan was never employed by Mattel but was a paid consultant who derived the majority of his income from royalties on marketed products and patents (including the voice unit used in the Chatty Cathy and later in Talking Barbie). In fact at his mansion in Holmby Hills (Bel Aire) he had two large stone lion heads at the front drive with voice units and draw strings."

also (more related to this topic) "Ryan was also known for providing room and board to UCLA students who would in turn work at the many charity events he held at his house."

Quick! To the hooter-scooter!

This is the New York Post we're talking about. It barely qualifies as news. It's a step below Fark.

"Despite marrying and having three kids, Ken was a closeted gay"

It explains the divorce

God almighty I hate those stupid trampy Bratz dolls. I'd much rather my girls play with Barbies.

Paging ringshadow, your presence is requested in thread number 413014 ... ringshadow to the thread please.

I would pay twice what a Bratz doll cost for a Barbie. When even I have children, if I have a little girl, there is no way I'm getting them one.

Girl is playing with her Barbie and her brother's GI Joe.

Mom enters the room.

Mom: Sweetie, why are you playing with GI Joe? Barbie comes with Ken.

Girl: No, mom, Barbie comes with GI Joe, she just fakes it with Ken.

When I was a kid detonating GI-Joe and Barbies with firecrackers, I always wondered why Barbie, as a toy for girls, was about a hundred times more resistant to explosive concussion than a G.I. Joe.

You could send a G.I. Joe's body parts flying all over the place just by sticking a Black Cat in that little rubber band that held him together. Barbie, on the other hand, could take an M-80 to the face, a direct hit at point blank from a pellet gun that's been pumped up about fifty times, and abuse from a dog without so much as a scratch. You pretty much had to set that biatch on fire before she'd show any damage.

Pretty unrealistic, if you ask me.

Go google this: "Barbie was based on a german sex doll".

Oh I see what you did there Subby

EVERYBODY PANIC: Go google this: "Barbie was based on a german sex doll".

Thank you. I have been reading disinfo since, I don't know, since before blogs and all this other newfangled stuff, and somehow I missed that one.

bruce4bruce: I use to have my Gi Joes do bad things to barbie.

I had them do bad things to each other.

Jimmy Devil Rocket Science

They Barbies from the 1980's were GREAT for making home-made napalm...or so I heard.

/cough.

I'm confused. I just happened to read about the origin of Barbie this morning in Uncle John's Bathroom reader (Best of the Best of Edition I believe) whilst conducting my normal morning business. It didn't mention anything about this Jack Ryan guy at all. It said Barbie was created after the wife of one of Mattel's founders (Eliott something or another) bought Lili (or something like that), based on a German cartoon character. She designed Barbie based on this doll because she felt kids wanted to play with an adult figured doll instead of the little baby dolls they'd pretty much been limited to up 'til then.

Not sure which source to believe, the New York post, or a bathroom book filled with toilet humour. I'm leaning towards Uncle John :)

/too lazy to check teh googles or wiki

Doesn't mention this guy at all...I call shenannigans.

Jack Ryan, the Yale-educated designer who popularized Barbie, was a "full-blown seventies-style swinger" with "a manic need for sexual gratification."

Oh, quit with the false outrage against the faux puritannical overlords. This is a news story because the creation of a popular children's toy appears to have been the result of a man's depravity, rather than the result of an innocent desire to simply entertain kids.

"And how is this going to help my kids?"

Michelle O.

The book claims that Ryan "somehow rationalized that he was the only man in her life" until he was diagnosed with gonorrhea.

I never knew gonorrhea made you no longer a man.
