Is it normal that i hate barbie with a fierce passion?

over here in Australia we throw shrimps on barbie

I'm a barbie girl, in a barbie world, life in plastic, it's fantastic, you can brush my hair, undress me everywhere, imagination life is your creation!
What's not to like about barbie?

I don't like the ridiculous standards of beauty set by barbie. However, I do like versatility she's had in her career choices. If I'm not correct, she's been an astronaut, a doctor, a veterinarian, and much more. Not to mention she owns her own dream house and drives a sweet ride. I want to see companies focus more on Barbie's success than her appearance. As a result I think little girls will grow up with a sense that they can do anything, regardless of their gender. As opposed to believing that they can do anything simply because they look like Barbie.

...You do realize there are more toys out there that aren't Barbie? If you don't want your kid playing with them, buy them a truck? There isn't gender-restrictions on what you buy your children, you know.

I used to love my Barbie dolls. They never corrupted my mind. The school bullies already had that part covered.

When I was a kid I always thought of barbie as just a pretty doll that's fun to play with, not some twisted symbol of what I should grow up to look like. She was a doll, made of plastic, not real, so I really didn't compare my physique to hers. Personally I think people are just wanting to start drama when it comes to barbie being a bad influence on young kids.

I'll probably get some negativity back from this, so come at me brah. Just kidding.

Don't play with them or give them to your kids. Or you can protest. No more Barbie!! No more Barbie!!! No more Barbie!!! No more Barbie!!!

I loved my Barbi dolls. I loved lighting them on fire, running over them with the lawn mower, throwing them under the wheels of passing cars and most of all, I loved dismembering them and burying the bloody body parts around the neighborhood.
I just don't understand why my real life girlfriends don't enjoy being treated the same way. Barbi NEVER complained, not ever.

HAHAHAHAhahaha.... Huff... I gave mine to my cousin... I SHOULD'VE JUST MICROWAVED IT TO MELT THAT UGLY FACE OFF! But, not to be rude. Barbie was made after the creator's daughter named Barbara (Barbie for short). "Barbie" loved dolls and that's what inspired the creator. I went shopping for the same cousin's B-day present, and we passed by the Barbie section. I literally had to cover my eyes from all the pink. So, we just got her an iTunes gift card and a Minecraft shirt.

Anyone who has this much of a problem with Barbies is a moran who needs to get a brain! go usa

This was a great song.

You know this toy is based on a real women right? Should ask her how evil she is. See what she has to say about it.

I hate barbie because of what she did to Bratz. barbie needs to go to hell seriously.

You're just jealous because she had the good fortune to be born without ribs and you didn't.

Barbies not selling shit anymore. It's all about Bratz and Monster High these days.

Ruth and Elliott Handler, the founders of Mattel, named the doll after their daughter Barbara. Yes, she is a real person. Barbara Handler Segal is still alive.
The inspiration for the Barbie doll was the Bild Lillie doll sold in Germany in the 1950s.

Believe it or not, Barbie originally was a real person. Her name was Barbara (Barbie) Handler and her mother and father were Ruth and Elliot. In the early 1950's, Barbie's mother watched her and her girlfriends play with adult female paper dolls more than they did the baby dolls. Her mother knew it was just as important for young girls to imagine what it would be like to be grown up. Since most of the adult dolls available at that time were paper or cardboard, Barbie's mother decided to make a three-dimensional female adult doll. One that was lifelike enough to serve as an inspiration for little girl's dreams of the future.
No.... Barbies are made of plastic. They don't talk, breathe, have heartbeats, etc. The only people who think that they are truly real need to visit a doctor, although in childhood years, a barbie is often a girls best friend (that's before they discover diamonds), so in the child's case it is often normal, even expected in most cases for the child to believe that they are real, but once you are like 20..... its time to accept the fact that they are plastic.
It is named after the inventor's daughter, Barbara.
handle's daughter barbara
Yes, Ruth Handler named the doll after her daughter Barbara.

Yes. What surprises me is that you aren't throwing a fit over Bratz! For crying out loud, those Bratz were glorified toy versions of prostitutes. However, I have to admit, the concept of their shoe-feet being able to come off was ingenious. I further lost respect for Barbie, quite recently, when I saw the toy where the dog has little hot dog cut shit. What the fuck?! I also don't like how they don't go all out when making Ethnic Barbies. Very unrealistic and disrespectful to those cultures.
