Nooooooooo! We're feminists, we need to bitch about things, even if it makes us hypocrites!

Someone added to the tumblr post I found it on:
just a bit to add to this, the vice president of barbie’s design even said
“Barbie’s body was never designed to be realistic. She was designed for girls to easily dress and undress.”
thats the only reason why she looks the way she does

Yeah, yeah, they always go on about how many amazing careers Barbie's had. You go and look in your local toy store. Do you see an astronaut Barbie? A surgeon Barbie? A NASCAR driver Barbie? I bet you don't. It'll be princess Barbies and ballerina Barbies.
And yeah, the ONLY reason Barbie is anorexic is to make her easy to dress and undress. We all know that chubby baby dolls are impossible to dress & undress, right? If they really wanted to make Barbie easy to dress they wouldn't leave her thumbs sticking out.
