I can see their point, but, I don't htink it's possible to get away from Barbie in our culture.

Like crash says, if the alternative is Bratz, I'd get my little girl hooked on Barbie as soon as possible. - TFox Mar 18, 10:57 3
- People used to complain about Barbie way more before Bratz came along. -- nm - loosilu Mar 18, 11:02 2
  - Right, because who could have imagined a toy company would make a "comb the gum out of her hair and wash her sequined thong, twice to be safe" doll? -- nm - TFox Mar 18, 11:04 1
    - wasn't their creator someone who left Mattel? I think I read he used to work on Barbie. -- nm - loosilu Mar 18, 11:05
word - no female body will inhabit the White House, no matter what Presidential Barbie implies - crash davis Mar 18, 10:56 3
- I am very disappointed in the lack of flame messages. -- nm - crash davis Mar 18, 11:00 2
  - crash, I'm furious with you! - TFox Mar 18, 11:03 1
    - true, they should just make Boutique Owner Barbie and skip the CEO ones -- nm - crash davis Mar 18, 11:05
