It also really enforces the whole binary gender role thing which is not a great message. I'm a straight cis dude but I shouldn't be locked into all the straight cis dude tropes, and neither should anyone else be wholly defined by their gender identity and sexual orientation.

Yeah that's a pretty prominent criticism I've heard. The movie is stuck somewhere between 2nd and 3rd wave feminism and tries to grasp at more modern ideas but framing it through Barbie makes it very difficult.

I don't blame them though, for a full blown Hollywood movie with that size budget it's impressive they got what they had.
