One of the Barbie movie’s most hooliganous plots (which isn’t the masterpiece some say but works as a parody) is the one that shows us Ken trying to put patriarchy in its place without really understanding what it is to wise world. Barbieland Feminist. Tired of their supporting role in front of the puppets, the puppets set up a squatter’s redoubt called the Mojo Dojo Casa House. With cowboy and rider motifs, deckchairs and big screens, gym bars, boxing gloves and beer, lots of beer.
Machirulo Ken showing muscles with his fur coat half open has not only been sold as a doll but has also inspired countless memes across the internet. In slang, mojo dojo refers to a person obsessed with gaining sex appeal. It’s the new motto on the networks, satirizing toxic masculinities.
He Tweeter Andrés Trasado He put the graffiti “Mojo Dojo Casa House”, like Ken in Barbie’s house, on the photo of the facade of the Royal Spanish Football Federation, an organization that is on everyone’s lips, and on the pages of the world press, due to the behavior of his very manly President, Luis Rubiales. Able to kiss a champion’s lips without her permission and pressure her to say she doesn’t care; touching her genitals in the box with the Queen and Infanta to celebrate the goal; calling those who criticized him “assholes” and “kinky” before making some very clumsy excuses. And to stand in the middle of all the photos with the trophy because “we” won. New acts for the record of what his uncle accused of having, among other excesses, paid for with federal money a party with “girls” à la Berlusconi at a mansion in Salobreña.
Barbie is for everyone and Ken wouldn’t fall for something that vulgar. The football boss is exhausted, but he interferes. And he has his clique: they’re all the ones who defend him because they’re surprised by the excitement, because they don’t understand anything, you have to see how feminists are today. By the way, the Mojo Dojo Casa House of Rubiales serves to find its equal. To know that you are not alone.
