Barbie


Barbie was a very interesting presentation to me. It made me realize that Barbie was and still is an impact in adolescent girls. Barbie is perfect, she has a perfect body, perfect hair and every little girl wants to be just like Barbie. Barbie has a small waist, boobs, and perfect hips, they were making Barbie to perfect. Because of this girls were becoming to have eating disorders, and the makers of Barbie had to make Barbie more human like. They made Barbie with a bigger waist but also enlarged her breasts making her basically have the same body just a bigger Barbie. One fact that I found interesting was that when they told me they made a pregnant Barbie they had stop selling it because she did not have a wedding ring on. Overall I really enjoyed listing to this presentation, because Barbie was a big part of my life also.
