They're famous! They're super skinny! They're sexy! They're for six year olds????
And the TOADY (Toys Oppressive And Destructive to Young Children) goes to.... Barbie Dallas Cowboy Cheerleader!
This collection of long legged impossbly thin Barbies was picked out by The Campaign For A Commercial-Free Childhood for it's ability to promote unatainable body image ideals and premature sexuality in young girls.
Now before you guys shout HELL YEAH! imagine it's your daughter...
CCFC Steering Committee member Joe Kelly said “Do we really want to teach our young daughters that they belong on the sidelines, not in the game, and the way to get noticed is show a lot of skin?”
Now if they'd marketed these as a collectible for immature adult football fans they might not have gotten criticized at all.
