Well aren't they banned now? I though Mattel had them pulled because the guy developed them while under contract with Mattel. Barbie crushed those little ho s...lol
But totally funny twist on body image addicted media...LOL
When I was 14, Twiggy was the big thing. Made me think my 5'6" 130 lb. body was totally disgusting! Now my 15 y.o. thinks her 5'8" 128 lb body is too fat! it starts with the dolls, then the medias promotion of the models, actresses, etc... But I think this is seen much more in white America. My 17 y.o. daughter is 5'3" and weighs nearly 150. She does not look fat, she is just very curvey and voluptuous. She pretty much just dates black guys and she feels just fine about her looks and her body. Of course she is also the one with the 4.00 grade point average, so it may be the fact that she has a lot of common sense and self esteem from being so smart, but I think some of it is cause black guys seem to not want their girl friends to be sticks. Much healthier attitude IMO.
