The movie opens with a utopian world called Barbie Land. Every Barbie is happy and content in who she is. Every Barbie has a role and feels deeply satisfied with how she contributes to society.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>There are a few digs in these opening scenes that are extremely important: first, Midge. Midge is Barbie\u2019s pregnant friend, and Mirren notes, \u201cLet\u2019s not show Midge, actually. She was discontinued by Mattel because a pregnant doll is just too weird.\u201d All the Barbies in Barbie Land have careers, but none have the role of being a mother. Come to think of it, none are married or have families at all.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Barbie and Comparison<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>All of this is meant to be satire, but these opening scenes pack so much to think about. First off, there\u2019s this world where Barbies have a role and purpose and feel so wonderful about themselves. There\u2019s also no comparison or gossip. However, there isn\u2019t any death, sadness, or cellulite either. There are also no children or mothers from what we can tell (apologies to Midge, who lives in an eternal state of third-trimester misery). No Barbie has stretch marks or a bad night\u2019s sleep or the struggle between the demands of home life and personal dreams. The worries in her life are as scarce as the wrinkles on her skin.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In Barbie Land, nobody compares because in large part, everyone\u2019s life is actually the same.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"alignright size-large is-resized\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"819\" height=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/club31women.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/5-819x1024.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-89188\" style=\"width:372px;height:auto\" srcset=\"https:\/\/club31women.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/5-819x1024.jpg 819w, https:\/\/club31women.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/5-240x300.jpg 240w, https:\/\/club31women.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/5-768x960.jpg 768w, https:\/\/club31women.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/5-560x700.jpg 560w, https:\/\/club31women.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/5.jpg 1080w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 819px) 100vw, 819px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Social Media Comparison<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Social media can feel a bit like Barbie Land.<\/strong> It allows us to see the fun side of people\u2019s lives while often hiding the harder, Weird Barbie side.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>When I first watched that opening scene of Barbie, I wanted it to be true for women everywhere. I wanted to live in Barbie Land! But I quickly realized I could not. I am married, I have a family I love, and I have hopes and dreams outside of Barbie\u2019s parameters. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The things lacking in Barbie\u2019s world are many of the things that give life the most meaning. Barbie Land, while fun, feels a bit like a perpetual vacation. It\u2019s enjoyable, but after a certain amount of time, even the beach becomes lackluster.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>What Game Are You Playing?<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>This feeling reminded me of Warren Buffet\u2019s teaching on the inner versus the outer scorecard. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center\"><em>\u201cThe big question about how people behave is whether they\u2019ve got an Inner Scorecard or an Outer Scorecard. It helps if you can be satisfied with an Inner Scorecard<strong>.\u201d <\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Your inner scorecard is how you personally define success, and no one can really answer if you have been successful but you; no one can define success for you but you.<\/strong>\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I struggle so much with wanting to live by an outer scorecard. <em>What do people think of me? Do I appear successful? Do I dress in a way that says I have my life together but also not like I am trying too hard?<\/em> When I do this, I am not playing by the rules of my game but rather by the rules of someone else\u2019s. An inner scorecard takes into account what I actually think is important. It\u2019s a scorecard specific to my game. It measures what a successful life would mean to me.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>When Barbie visits the real world, her scorecard changes. The absence of flat feet and cellulite no longer defines a happy life for her. Barbie\u2014who from all we can see has the perfect body, the perfect career, the perfect life (the perfect outer scorecard)\u2014wants to become human. Ruth Handler (the creator of Barbie) warns her that being a human isn\u2019t all it\u2019s cracked up to be: <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center\"><em>\u201cYou understand that humans only have one ending\u2026 Being a human can be pretty uncomfortable\u2026 And then you die.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>But Barbie wants it, because she wants a whole life.<\/strong> The aging and the cellulite and pain are part of what make for a real, beautiful life. She will die. But she will die having <strong>lived a real, true life<\/strong>. She will die, <strong>but she will have won the game that really mattered to her.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Reflection:<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Take some time to sit down and really ask what game you\u2019re playing. What truly matters to you? What would a win look like? What things are on your inner scorecard?<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-medium\"><a href=\"https:\/\/bakerbookhouse.com\/products\/618534?utm_source=C31W&amp;utm_medium=referral&amp;utm_campaign=bhpnf_IJustWishIHadABiggerKitchen_Strickler_C31WBlog\" target=\"_blank\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"200\" height=\"300\" src=\"https:\/\/club31women.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/I-Just-Wish-I-Had-a-Bigger-Kitchen-200x300.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-89182\" srcset=\"https:\/\/club31women.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/I-Just-Wish-I-Had-a-Bigger-Kitchen-200x300.jpg 200w, https:\/\/club31women.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/I-Just-Wish-I-Had-a-Bigger-Kitchen-682x1024.jpg 682w, https:\/\/club31women.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/I-Just-Wish-I-Had-a-Bigger-Kitchen-768x1152.jpg 768w, https:\/\/club31women.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/I-Just-Wish-I-Had-a-Bigger-Kitchen-1024x1536.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/club31women.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/I-Just-Wish-I-Had-a-Bigger-Kitchen-560x840.jpg 560w, https:\/\/club31women.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/I-Just-Wish-I-Had-a-Bigger-Kitchen.jpg 1333w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 200px) 100vw, 200px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<p>If you liked this post, check out the book <a href=\"https:\/\/bakerbookhouse.com\/products\/618534?utm_source=C31W&amp;utm_medium=referral&amp;utm_campaign=bhpnf_IJustWishIHadABiggerKitchen_Strickler_C31WBlog\" target=\"_blank\"><em>I Just Wish I Had a Bigger Kitchen<\/em><\/a>by Kate Strickler.
