Bling Bling Barbie



I was talking to my niece on the phone this past weekend, and she was reminding me that christmas was coming and that she knows what she wants. I asked her what she wanted, and she yells out she wants a "Bling Bling Barbie". I was like, "You want a what?" She yells even louder "I want a Bling Bling Barbie" Up until this Sunday, I had no damn idea what a Bling Bling Barbie was. I mean, I know what Bling Bling is, it's flashy jewelry or whatever, and everyone knows what a Barbie doll is. So I go on Amazon to check it out, and I see this whore of a doll. What the hell is this? The doll basically sums up what western women are all about. is that a street walking doll? Why is the skirt so small? Now that I know what this is, i'll be certain not to buy this for her and i'll tell my sister not to buy it either. She's only 7. I can actually say that i'm afraid about how this young girl will turn out when she becomes an adult, if at 7, this is what is appealing to her.

Talking to a female friend yesterday, she mentioned her 6 year old niece was going to a rollerblading birthday party. She dressed up like Britney Spears in denim shorty-shorts.

A 6 year old.

Her mother had no problem with it.

It took grandma to stop her from going out dressed like a cheap tart.

Tell me, if that's Bling Bling Barbie, does Bling Bling Ken now come with an opaque family court attachment, complete with a shiny star on the chamber's ceiling, corrupt judges, perjury-based restraining orders and Ken's very own jail cell, or ...is that ...in next year's model?

No didn't you hear, Ken is the Homosexual sperm donor to barbie's illegitimate children.

Next is lesbian Barbie, then morphs into BBW barbie, which then morphs into dark ages barbie when the islamofascists take over.

The reason why Barbie has so much bling-bling is because Ken is slaving away at the office to pay for all of it. But Barbie thinks Ken is too distant and spends too much time at work, so she gets a little on the side with GI Joe, but Joe don't play that.

I actually remember when kids' toys were a lot more sensible and actually served to give kids practice for future skills. For instance, many a girl learned how to bake with an EZ Bake oven and many a boy learned construction skills with an Erector set. In fact, one former co-worker was inspired to become a mechanical engineer after receiving an Erector set for Christmas.

But it seems that today's toys are preparing kids for a whole lot of nothing. Fellow blogospherians, this is our future.

That is a horrible doll! It just goes to show how low society is stooping!

Heh. Yeah, I've seen the updated Barbie. Problem is, the doll refects the society. Like the Lil Bratz. If you're not familiar, look them up next.

I was at Bi-Mart today to get some rope, and I was looking at the posters in the toy section (I couldn't find the puzzles :D) There was a Lil Bratz poster. They were dressed like harem girls. I kid you not.

Where are the feminists screaming about this crap?

P.S. I'm gonna link to your blog, if you don't mind.

Whats up all.

If any of you had actually tried to watch the Bratz TV show...

At the office most of my female co workers agree that the Bratz look like hoes... except for the lone, divorced, single parent of two girls sista that swears that they are "cute", and there's "nothing wrong with it."

Her parenting license should be revoked immediately for that one.

It seems to me we are just rushing back to the Pagan days. What's next? Selling our 6 year old daughters into slavery?
