Hehe, look out the new Tattoo Barbie. She caused so much furore that international media is reporting about her. Actually, the furore comes from the parents who are complaining that the Tattoo Barbie could have negative influence on their daughters. Might make daughters want a tattoo and then wear skimpy clothes to show the tattoo off: “It’s attracting kids too young to want to expose parts of their body to show off tattoos,” said Jenn Alcayaga, a parent from Sacramento, California.
I adore the paradox of the situation. Why is having something tattooed on your skin and then eventually wearing something that shows your tattoo worse than having eating disorders in order to keep Babrie-thin, breast implants (and we know how much more dangerous they are then a tattoo) to have a Barbie figure and then wearing a Barbie-bikini?
I don’t know, but somehow I like the tattoo Babrie (maybe as a symbol of our society’s paradoxes and a reminder that we should start complaining about the real problems), so here she comes.
This makes me remember the sentence “Just sit there and be decorative!”.
I wonder at what level of decorativeness where people do not want to talk to you anymore? Is making yourself look better ruining potentials as being accepted for your brain?
I want to see the grammie-puppet! Including wrinkled and faded tatoos!
haha, my favourite dilbert joke… when he’s dating a model… “i’ll just sit here and absorb moisture from the air”.
looking better does ruin your potentials to be accepted for your brain – because then it is hard to put you in a box – unfortunately we seem to only have “intelligent” and “attractive” boxes in our brains.
yeah – once you can accept both in a partner you are ready to get married to him/her – unless it’s too late already!
maybe in the near future there would be natural breast implants that are based on stem cells or something~”-

Why do people complain? It shows that the people who make the barbie respect the change in generations. Kids now use temporary tattoos. Let each person be who they want to be and accept them for who they are
