A fashion doll with reasonably standard human body proportions - as opposed to the exaggerated dimensions of a Barbie - is going to be manufactured. Why has it taken so long, asks Denise Winterman.

Really, i wonder why it took them so long.

Quote:Quote:

Finally someone has been brave enough to show what a woman really looks like," says Pat Hartley, body image expert and author of Body Images: Development, deviance and change. "It's taken such a long time for a doll like this to even get close to production because a lot of people have been making a lot of money from projecting the image of the stick-thin woman as the ideal. People in the diet and fashion industry. It's time someone fought back.

Diet industry. Amazing.

Quote:Quote:

Barbie manufacturer Mattel defended the doll's proportions in an interview earlier this year saying they are designed to make play easier, not be realistic.

That cannot possibly be. He most certainly hates women.

I'm waiting for a BBW Barbie. Don't think that it's not coming.

I'm sorry but women can't define what men find attractive. Men are very visual and the more exaggerated the feminine features the more we're turned on ...to a point.

Women get turned on by a man's looks, style, money, personality etc. Now I know you want men to like you for things other than your looks but hey that's not how we work. It's cruel and unfair but hey ...take it up with God or something.

Will never understand how looking at a doll would cause a girl to have traumatic body issues. That's a self esteem problem, not the toy maker's.

He's still making me self conscious. Something like this would be less discriminatory:

WB the burnette one... somehow blonde looks frumpier.

I guess I hold blondes to a higher standard.

These people are literally too hypersensitive to understand a concept as basic as artistic embellishment.

Barbie's figure is EMBELLISHED because she's NOT A REAL HUMAN BEING. Christ, is it that hard to understand?

Stretch Armstrong has embellished flexibility. Mister Potato Head is larger than a real potato. G.I. Joe has exaggerated, rippling muscles because he kills terrorists with his bare hands. And Barbie is an embellished feminine ideal. She is not real. Children realize she is not real, though that fact somehow eludes these crusading feminists.

Goddamn it planet earth, I want off this ride.

Also... stop calling Barbie unrealistic or unachievable. Its been done! Valeria Lukyanova, human barbie doll.


And yes, in case you haven't seen her... She is real. And she is really, really, really fucking crazy.

Like, believes she was sent from outer space.
She can talk to aliens through light.
Can travel through time and space.
And is becoming breatharian apparently. (Subsisting off of light and air...like a plant, except not like a plant because they don't even do that).

A few thoughts:

I was expecting a pear-shaped short-haired bitchy doll when I saw "feminist standards", so those two weren't bad at all!

Sadly they are STILL in better shape than most chicks I see around here, and I live near a big metro uni campus

There is something that's really depressing about that.

Accessories to be sold alongside new Barbie: cats, franzia box wine, meaningless college degrees, and activia. Probably a mini CPAP at some point too.

Can we say that Barbie has hit the wall?

For all of the feminist talk of "real women have curves", the new barbie has none. I'd hardly call 32:28 having curves. Science has proven that the most attractive ratio is 3:2. The new Barbie is 8:7. I don't play with dolls, so I'm going to stop giving a shit now.

Still to thin to be a feminist. It will shame fatties and you know you can't do that.

Have you heard interviews with her? She talks about being a spiritual teacher and channelling the collect conscious through her barbie body type.

Of course, this crazy only encourages my penis, that mad crazy fool.

Negs would work so miraculously well with this girl...damn i'd almost be afraid of ruining her...almost.

I hope this new "Barbie" comes at a much higher price. It will use more material, but also teach the consumer that it will cost more to be fat.

They should make one with a boy hair cut and "Tattoo" stickers girls can place on the dolls body and it will be a real feminist barbie doll.

Growing up playing with He-Man and GI Joe toys gave every guy I know an inferiority complex. Some of them were cured by bashing their heads on bricks, eating mushrooms and shooting fireballs though, so I guess childhood wasn't horrible for boys.
