I have seen that before with twin sisters. It is amusing.

I believe the point here was not that Barbie isn't an example of an unattainable body image for girls; rather it's that He-Man poses the exact same issue for boys but there are no "masculinists" who complain about it day and night.

That was my point. Not all femininists will point to Barbie for being an unobtainable body image. My bet some of them will realize it's a fucking doll. No one expects all boys to have king fu grip and have no genitalia.

Yes indeed. Though I'd sat that of late the more extreme voices seem to hold the limelight, if only because most of the big battles have been won. Voting, equal pay, all that good stuff. What's left? Complaining about people's shirt designs? :)

How to manage a household, raise a family, hoe to worship.

Plenty of things for people to complain about.

IDK about Great Britain, and I hope you guys have evolved a bit past us in this regard, but around here you might be surprised to find out how many sectors still have a glass ceiling a/o find legalese loopholes to offer de facto segregated pay scales. In one of my local congressional campaigns recently, one of the candidates' refusal to back legislation giving more teeth to equal-pay rulings was a legitimate talking point.

I've seen a whole lot of job ads this last year or so, and I've never yet seen one that offered different rates of pay to men and women. Does that actually happen in the US?

You're not going to see it in the job ad -- it's not that explicit. For legal reasons, no company is going to outright say they don't pay at the same way but somehow at the end of the year the result will be that the female employee swarmed less for her work than a male in the same position.
