"Barbie Doll"

I believe that the poem "Barbie Doll" is almost degrading to women's society. What young women are "supposed" to look like is so ridiculous. It is not helping them out any, not boosting their confidence. If anything, it tears them down. The "wanted look" of a "normal" women is just getting smaller and smaller. This is by no means normal. With all the fast food restaurants and what not, it takes a lot of determination and will power for a women to stay in shape, or at least that wanted look.
The Bratz Dolls give a very distorted look at todays society. Are they trying to portray that it's ok for teenagers to be snotty and "brats"? Are they trying to say it's ok to wear tiny little miny skirts and an excuse of a t-shirt? It's hard to understand that a company is actually putting a product out there. All it does is give a distorted image of how a women should look, to young children.
