I love fashion! Barbie was someone I looked at in the Christmas catalogs of my youth. Very gorgeous designs.
Young girls need to keep believing in themselves and ignore all the naysayers and men and women in this world saying girls still ate second class citizens

You can have lots of confidence and abilities. If the society you live in ignores that, doesn't give you space to perform, and prefers women who dissemble and defer, you will still live as a second class citizen. Your community is more powerful than a single person's intent and content.

You aren't 30 yet, are you? Because you have to see it in action to understand it. Sit in a board meeting where everyone has a graduate degree and watch the show.@@lukeessman8030
I saw the Barbie movie twice, and being a collector, it got me even more interested.
Amazing
I 🩷 Barbie. My favorite Barbie is Princess of Cambodia 🇰🇭 from the Dolls of the World 🌎 collection 😊
As a child of the 50s I was given a Barbie doll when they first came out. What I liked was all the clothes. My Mom made a lot of clothes for my Barbie, and they were beautiful. But I was uncomfortable with Barbie from the start. I really didn’t like the way she looked because she didn’t look like any real person I’d ever seen. Even as a six year old girl, I felt there was something wrong with this doll. There was no pretense about Barbie’s careers at that time. Her “career” was Ken, and nothing more. I was so uncomfortable with the doll, without any real idea why, that I gave up playing with her after about six months, threw her in the back of the closet, and moved on to horses.

Skinny equals healthy, you are lying to kids saying it's okay to be fat

I have never been a fan of the barbie doll (or dolls at all). but when all the barbies were blonde and blue eyed i couldn't relate to them. My sister used to color barbies hair with black mascara to make her look more of what we saw as Latinas. I'd much rather climb trees and go down the steep driveway of my neighbors driveway with my feet inside the bed of a tonka truck. My mom and sister did play with the dolls.

Latina is not a Race. You mean Mestizo. A Latina could have them same traits, as Stereotypical Barbie👩🏼. Y'all need to stop saying Latina. Y'all erasing other race's in that group
Didn't release the first non-white Barbie until 1980. Yes. Trailblazers. 😂

If a toy doll can "push back the feminist movement by 50 years", it really is a weak movement.
She is a fashion doll You are just shilling for Matel. Sally Ride and other women had the impact on society not Barbie.
