Comment on Barbie Anatomical Model by freeny

I totally agree with you, Das-Sturm. Why should we get upset about our children seeing human bodies? Paranoid much. ...Not to say barbie is an actuate depiction of a human body!

I don't hate barbies because they're girly dolls. I hate them because of their anatomy! Their image.

I mean, look at that! The feet, the waist, the long neck!

Even as a toddler I never had a taste for barbies, and even if I had, I'd still be disturbed by them now.

This doll, so many girl's fave toy, is their image of a human being. I could go on forever about why this is damaging, but basically, this is a main image for a child's mind as it builds an idea of what they should look like. If this is their model of an ideal body, then... Isn't this inappropriate? And not to mention impossible, even with this beautiful anatomy it's obvious this barbies missing most of her hip bones and a lot of space for organs.

And amazing job Freeny! I love this peace!!
