TEACHER:DISCUSSION QUESTIONS
Little girls like a types of baby dolls. Their favorite one is the Barbie dolls. A lot of people think that Barbie dolls are bad role models because of their body shapes. The question that everyone is asking is would you buy a doll that misrepresented your values. My answer is I would because the doll is just plastic. Plastic is fake so people shouldn't feel like they are bad role models. Everyone knows that nobody is made like that don't matter how much makeup or surgery you do to yourself. Barbie dolls are superficial.
- Cindy Jackson titled her book Living Doll because she thought she was a doll and to prove it she got surgery to make her look like one.
- Barbie's body type is unusual because she is very thin and some are concerned with that because it makes a dangerous role model because people will never look like that.
- Barbie is different from other dolls children play with because they have glamorous looks, fancy clothes, and handsome boyfriends.
- The Mattel company's position surprise me in different ways.I also think his reason behind it is reasonable.
- The recent changes to the Barbie product was likely to satisfy the critics in my opinion.
