Barbie Doll

In this poem the author talks about the physical appearance, today the ideal woman continues to get smaller and younger. The bratz dolls are much younger and all around smaller also. The pressure that is put upon young girls to fit into the category of what a woman should look like is very high. In this poem they talk about the girl having a big nose and fat legs this is still something a young girl my hear today. In fact the chance of it are even greater look at the name of the doll "Bratz" this is sending the message to children that it is okay to have a bad attitude and treat other people poorly. These dolls also were less and less clothes is really okay for a five year old to want to dress in a mini skirt and half a shirt. The bratz doll is the modern barbie she has more edge and attitude and looks more like a teenager than a barbie.
