JaneAndJohnDoe hasn't quite let us get to know them yet.
Default Re: Q. re: "No Barbies and Kens" remarks

We are one of those couples who state that we are neither Barbie and Ken, nor are we looking for them.

In our view, Barbie and Ken are defined as very fit, "typically" model-types, who spend far more time in the gym that we would ever dream of doing.

Yes, there might be a certain level of "intimidation" involved, but I think, at least for us, it is more about being comfortable. We would rather not be worrying about "are they disappointed" because we don't look like porn stars. We would much rather be with people who are "like us". Average body types. Everyday folks who can let go and not worry about body issues.

I wouldn't turn down a Ken or a Barbie...it is just that we aren't necessarily looking for them as playmates.
