Ladies, how many of you had a “Barbie Doll” when you were coming up as a kid ?
Barbie turns 50 today. You know, the busty, blonde, bimbo girl from
Mattel I believe. And she has a boyfriend named Ken. Rumor has it
that he may be gay. Anyway, 50 years of Barbie. You would think
that by now, people would be more understanding and sympathetic
to the so called bimbo gal down the street. Now there have been some
major advancements throughout history. The Women’s movement came along in the 1970′s. Then they demanded that Barbie be treated
with respect. So as a result, you see more cosmopolitan style Barbie
Dolls on the market, and some of them are even housewives. How
about that. Well let me ask you this. Have you ever had a Barbie
Doll when you were coming up as a kid. I had one before, but not as a child. But she
was a real live one. Her name was Tammy. He, he, he, he…………
(laughing to myself like Homer Simpson)
Tell us if you don’t mind. What do you
think about the whole Barbie Doll
ideology………………
I’ll admit it,i was obsessed with Barbie dolls when i was a kid.I had about 10 Barbies and still wanted more.Never been interested into having Ken,though.Oh,and never even thought to be like Barbie,it’s never been my wish….Just liked them because they were the best looking toys out there and liked their blonde hair(had a fascination for their hair).Never thought of them as role models,or hot,or sexy.And i never wanted to have a body like theirs.Plus,even as a child,i still thought their body was disproportionate and unrealistic,so i never took them seriously.But always liked them with really really long hair.
And,another reason why i liked them so much was,(ok,this is going to sound self-absorbed) that i used to have my hair really long throughout my childhood and was really really proud of it.So,yeah,that’s why i was so crazy abt their hair.
However,once i grew up to be a pre-teen,became tomboy….now i’m 21 and still am a tomboy,not as much as back when i was 13-18,but,still basicly am.So no,just because one liked/s Barbies,doesn’t mean they will become or have become or is a bimbo.
