The male version of Barbie is Ken, her longtime boyfriend and companion.
Ken was first introduced in 1961, the same year Barbie debuted. He was designed to be Barbie's perfect match, with a similar fashion-forward style and a range of accessories to complement her outfits. Over the years, Ken has undergone numerous transformations, reflecting changing trends and evolving gender roles.
Just like Barbie, Ken has been featured in numerous movies, TV shows, and video games. He has also had his own line of dolls, clothing, and accessories.
While Ken is primarily known as Barbie's partner, he has also been depicted as a strong, independent character with his own interests and aspirations.
