A new “Mexico Barbie” doll has run into allegations that it reinforces negative stereotypes.

All dolls are based on some stereotype just like many toys do. I don't really understand that argument because if you're going to make it then it should be made for every race and not just this one.

I have the Chinese one but her hair isn't down like that and it didn't come with a panda.


I want my fucking panda.

Dolls teach younger girls to be a certain way to appeal to certain groups. If I had a daughter I would never buy her a Barbie or any kind of stereotypical doll. I would buy her books & kick her butt outside to explore the outdoors.
People wonder why little girls have self esteem issues :facepalm:

Barbie can be anything she wants, gets by on looks alone, has fancy clothing & expensive cars & only dates hansom men... :hmm:

I know, but that exhibit isn't open until May 18th, so I still have to wait. I go every year, anyway, but this year will be the best year because of FUCKING PANDAS <3

Ha, well, we have all possibly crossed paths before, who knows.

Did you go to the Raw house show in March by any chance?
