So I have recently discovered that I have issues with Barbie. I'm not saying that I didn't love playing with Barbie's when I was little. I always loved my Barbies. But in the past five or so years Barbie has changed a lot.
Barbie is a dissapointment to me now. She used to be a role model. Barbie has issues...
#1... She divorced Ken, her partner of almost 50 years. Wow.
#2... Though she divorced Ken she's still going out with him, and a numerous amount of other little plastic men. That's pretty stupid.
#3... She got a tattoo. Nothing's wrong with tattoo's exactly, but when you are a role model to 5 year old girls do you really think you should have a tattoo?
#4... The way she dresses. OK, so Barbie's always worn bikini's that should be enough. But now, she wears such low-cut things it's embarassing to see little girls playing with them in public.
#5... Though this has always been a problem I'm finally truly realizing it. Her porportions and her perfection. No wonder girls of this generation have eating disorders, cut themselves, commit suicide. Barbie is Miss Perfect, and it's impossible to be like her.
