    Nope, you’re reaching. Should every man in every move and show be represented in an idealized way at all times? How do you even remotely judge what’s a character (which is to say an individual) being portrayed in a particular way versus all men, everywhere being “demonized” as you put it?

      Virtually every male character in that film is portrayed negatively, and the feminist messaging is very clear. I’d say that qualifies as demonizing.

        What does negatively mean in this context? What are some examples? I haven’t seem the movie.

          Here’s a decent enough summary of the plot. The film depicts all the Kens as idiotic, shallow, patriarchy-loving simpletons who are dependent on their Barbie counterparts and many men in the Real World as misogynistic assholes.
