The âBarbieâ movie has been banned in Kuwait and could soon be
forbidden in other parts of the Middle East because the film âpromotes homosexualityâ and carries âideas that encourage unacceptable behavior,â according to government officials.
The Greta Gerwig-directed âpreachy, man-hatingâ film, per Bill Maher, will not appear in theaters in Kuwait and could also soon be banned in Lebanon, per The Hollywood Reporter.
Kuwait announced it had banned âBarbieâ and the supernatural horror
film âTalk to Meâ to protect âpublic ethics and social traditions,â according to Reuters.
The chairman of Kuwaitâs film censorship committee, Lafi Al-Subaie, accused the film of âcarrying ideas that encourage unacceptable
behavior and distort societyâs values,â local media outlets reported.
âBarbieâ Banned in Kuwait, Accused of âPromoting Homosexualityâ
in Lebanon https://t.co/NbDWywd6fH

Lebanonâs cultural minister, Mohammad Mortada, also moved to ban the
film, stating that it promotes âhomosexuality and sexual
transformationâ and âcontradicts values of faith and moralityâ by diminishing the importance of the family unit, according to Reuters.
Based on Mortadaâs comments, Interior Minister Bassam Mawlawi asked General Securityâs censorship committee to review the film and give its recommendation, with it widely believed it will also be banned, THR
noted.
Despite earlier reports that the movie, about a Barbie doll coming to
life, would be banned in larger markets like Saudi Arabia and the
United Arab Emirates, it was announced this week the film would hit
theaters on August 10 in those countries.
Last month, the feminist fantasy film was banned in Vietnam due to
content that government officials found offensive.
It has to do with the filmâs imagery of a South China Sea map. This
region has been a point of contention between Vietnam and China for
years, and a map in the movie shows a U-shaped ânine-dash lineâ in the South China Sea.
âWe do not grant license for the American movie âBarbieâ to release in Vietnam because it contains the offending image of the nine-dash line,â
Vi Kien Thanh, head of the Department of Cinema, a government body in
charge of licensing and censoring foreign films, was quoted as saying
in the state-run Tuoi Tre newspaper.

When the Muslims take over the USA all homosexuality will finally be banned. Until then all of us should try to be like Muslims with their high moral standards.
Hopefully they won't be in charge when it's time to sentence Trump because they'll likely chop his head off.
