Despite the media's perception of beauty we shouldn't hate Barbie, you know if she was real. Making rude comments to Barbie is just turning tables, making her look "ugly" for being this so called unrealistic form of body proportions. Maybe there's a "Barbie" out there and real or not, we should respect ALL body types. Even if someone's boobs WERE so high up.

So the whole Barbie issue is a canard. You can't have a doll that size with normal proportions and have it look normal. So the truth is that when you create scale models of human forms that it is necessary to modify some of the proportions so that the doll does look normal.

Being the media eye is something that we have all grown up in, and yet, very few of us will ever have that kind of attention. The media is a joke, and parents need to teach their children, especially their daughters, that this kind of media look, is not real, but is a fake lifestyle of a person that is for from perfect. This video was very well done. And by the way, the girl that is speaking, she is the body of perfect. NOT the models that mass media want us to think is perfect. I will share!
