Warning, parents! Barbies from new ‘Wicked’ movie link to PORN site



Our children are under attack like never before. From leftist indoctrination in schools and drag queens in libraries to obscene LGBTQ+ “family-friendly” parades and the relabeling of sexual predators as minor attracted persons, the agenda to sexualize and destroy our children is blatantly obvious.

And now we have another atrocity to add to the list: Mattel’s new line of “Wicked” Barbies based on the up-and-coming movie starring Ariana Grande feature a link to a porn website on the back of the boxes.

Mattel is claiming that it was “just a giant mistake,” says Allie Beth Stuckey skeptically.

“If they are targeting kids — little girls ages 4+ — I think it is of utmost importance to get the link correct on the back of the box,” she says.

Although Mattel has issued a statement calling the incident an “unfortunate error” and promising the company is “taking immediate action to remedy this,” it’s hard to believe that this wasn’t intentional.

“I cannot imagine something like this slipping through the cracks at a place like Mattel. You've got so many hands and so many eyes that a product like this has to go through,” says Allie, pointing out that this “misprint” has major consequences.

“It's not just like it got sent to some unpurchased domain and it was just, you know, a letter off. … This was an entire word off, and you would think that there would be someone employed at Mattel or someone on the ‘Wicked’ production end of things that would have tested the URL,” she criticizes.

Currently, the products are “no longer available” or appear to be “out of stock” on vendors’ websites. Mattel has also advised that consumers who have already purchased the product “discard their packaging.”

Even still, many are not convinced that this was actually a misprint.

Libs of TikTok certainly isn’t. In a tweet posted last Sunday, the account expressed its skepticism.

Allie agrees and recalls the semi-recent Balenciaga scandal when the company created a line of bondage/BDSM teddy bear handbags. Some of the advertising included children. One ad also featured the documents for “a Supreme Court decision that involved child sex abuse material.”

Like Mattel, Balenciaga claimed it was “just a giant mistake.”

While she hopes she’s wrong, Allie thinks that there are people at these mega corporations who are “sick and twisted and nefarious.”

Introducing GENDER MINOTAURS – the next ridiculous thing a child can identify as (and it's backed by doctors)



Just a few years ago, most people trusted the medical experts in this country, but today…not so much.

And is it any wonder why?

Many of these “experts” are suddenly making claims about gender that defy the scientific facts that have long formed the foundation of the medical industry.

Dr. Diane Ehrensaft, the chief psychologist and director of mental health at UCSF Benioff Children's Hospital's Gender Development Center in California, “claims that children can identify as gender minotaurs, among other terms,” reports Sara Gonzales.

If you’re sitting there wondering what in the world a “gender minotaur” is, then you’re in good company.

According to these “experts,” a gender minotaur is “a descriptor for the children who explain that they are one gender on the top and another on the bottom; this usually is to account for genitals at odds with the gender they know themselves to be.”

But wait, there’s more!

Children can also identify as a “gender prius,” which means “you’re half girl and half boy.”

This term specifically was coined by a young child who claimed he looked like a boy from the front and a girl from the back. Gotta love when we put medical terminology in the hands of an 8-year-old.

Dr. Diane Ehrensaft claims there’s a cure for gender dysphoria. But don’t get your hopes up.

“Gender may be the cure, rather than the disease,” she says, adding that “it is the responsibility of health professionals to cure the disease by getting involved in the community to ensure gender health for all.”

If that wasn’t absurd enough, buckle up, because it gets worse – way worse.

Ehrensaft also claims that she can tell when babies are transgender because they send messages to their caretakers about who they really are inside.

“I have a colleague who’s transgender,” she says. “He was assigned female at birth,” and “there's a video of him as a toddler tearing barrettes out of then her hair and throwing them on the ground and sobbing – that's a gender message!”

Or … toddlers are temperamental and often object to things like hair clips, hats, sunscreen, socks, and pretty much anything else under the sun. AND toddlers don't have the cognitive development to even comprehend that a hair clip is typically an accessory for girls, but whatever.

“Like we should institutionalize her,” says Sara, who can’t help but drop a couple expletives out of sheer rage.

“When your 2-year-old wants to eat the dog food and you tell them no … what social issue can we get out of that?” asks Jason Buttrill.

That’s easy. Obviously your kid is a dog inside.

Slate advice columnist advises stepmom on how to buy a sex toy for her 13-year-old stepdaughter without mom finding out



A Slate Care and Feeding parenting advice columnist has responded to a stepmother who is trying to figure out how to buy her 13-year-old stepdaughter a vibrator without causing too many ripples in the family.

What are the details?

Inquiring about her 13-year-old stepdaughter, the woman — "Nervous in NY" — writes, "She lives with her mom and grandma in another state but spends the summers with us. Over the last few years, she and I have become close. I try to always be open and accepting with my children. She came to me first to share that she is bisexual, and I'm the one she comes to and asks if she can dye her hair, get a piercing, etc."

She points out that when the unnamed child asks her for things like piercings, she complies, but only with the permission of her biological parents.

"Today," Nervous writes, "she sent me a link to a vibrator and asked if I could buy it for her. She said she didn't feel comfortable asking anyone else. They would freak out."

The stepmother says that she naturally doesn't mind buying the impressionable 13-year-old the sex toy in question, and says she wants to be "sex-positive" to set a good example for the child.

However, she says she worries about how the child's mother would react to her daughter receiving such a gift.

"Her mom and I already have a strained relationship," she notes. "I don't want to make things worse. Would I be crossing a line here?"

The response

The columnist, Jamilah Lemieux, responds by telling Nervous that the situation is "tricky," and that she wants to tell the stepmom to just "do it," and to "ask forgiveness later as opposed to asking for permission that you know you won't get now."

"However," she writes, "13-year-olds are notoriously irresponsible, and in all likelihood she'll leave the thing out and have to answer for where it came from. You wouldn't want to have her in a position to lie about you buying it, and in any case, consider how bad 'This adult purchased a sex toy for my child' can sound under, well, most circumstances."

Lemieux advises that the stepmom could perhaps take the child to a drugstore or novelty store and do some "turning your head the other way" while the teen makes the purchase for herself.

Almost as a side note, Lemieux suggests that the woman have a discussion with the child's father about the appropriateness of such a gift.

"If you do decide to sent the vibrator, I'd suggest making a little care package with a book about adolescent sexual health, a journal, maybe some PMS treats," she writes. "Whatever you decide, just be sensitive that your partner's ex might not simply feel slighted or angry, but that she could use a sex toy purchase as evidence of inappropriate behavior toward her child."
