Mattel is reportedly considering same-sex couple Barbies in response to a gay couple’s Instagram post. The soon-to-be-married gay couple explained on Good Morning America recently how they might’ve persuaded Mattel to get on the gay-Barbie bandwagon. They said they wanted to get a gift for their niece before the big day, but couldn’t find any same-sex Barbies.
The couple got creative, and mixed and matched the straight wedding set Barbies to create a gay wedding for their niece. “I hope our custom gift inspires you to make a #GayWedding set!” the couple wrote in an Instagram post, tagging Mattel. A little less than a week later, they updated Instagram to let supporters know that Mattel had gotten the message. “We are setting up a meeting to discuss more. We are meeting with their design team including the head of the @barbie design team!!”
