Why Barbie is not evil
June 30, 2008 5:32 pm Daily lifeOnce again, let’s give a quick nod to the main argument against: “her success comes at the considerable psychological expense of hoards of impressionable girls, who will spend half their lives hating themselves because they look like ordinary women instead of an overhyped caricature”
Seriously? Who doesn’t know that Barbie is a freak? Barbie’s statistics in a live human being would produce a woman over 7 feet tall with a 44-inch bust, a 17-inch waist and 40-inch hips. Miss America she ain’t.
AND, haven’t we all by now seen the pathetic old women who had plastic surgery in the 80s to look like Barbie and now they have absurd 18 year old D-cups perched still perky on their 55 year old bodies? That neck skin and those breasts do not match, Ma’am.
What once may have been a legitimate first wave feminist issue is now a cartoon. Relax, Gloria Steinem, our cynical post Gen-x girls are not vulnerable anymore.
But, what they are missing in their new found freedom is wisdom in the fine arts of standing up strait, sucking in their stomachs, knowledge that bra straps should never be an acceptable “part of the outfit”, and wearing tasteful, nude toned makeup.
Barbie would not be caught dead in that Goth eyeliner, sweetie. I don’t care if Kim Kardashian wears hers that way, you need to have some class.

dear skanky teenage girl,
your second back side (the one sitting above your low-rise jeans) is not attractive, and sqeezing your size 8 badonkadonk into a size 5 pair of jeans does not make you look like a size 5, it makes you look like a size 14. your pierced belly button only looks cute in that tiny bikini if you suck in the gut. don’t be self-concious, all women have that fupa and the smart ones SUCK IT IN! beauty is pain, i learned this while making faces while sitting on the floor in front of my mom as she did my hair. beauty is not having to buy a new eyeliner every week. you lose your eyes and makeup is only pretty if no one notices it. please stop being so trashy, you make me look bad.
sincerely,
a teenager with at least a little class.
