The Barbie's in my collection are all very curvy, normal weight with a skinny waist and (admittedly) unrealistically long legs. Never once have I thought it was too thin.

Clip 5,100 Posted December 9, 2016 Share Posted December 9, 2016 3 minutes ago, Lance said: Who's feeling "oppressed"? I've been a part of the Barbie community for a long time and no one has ever complained about how dolls are making them feel "oppressed" (I think you're just spouting buzz words to promote some sort of anti-liberal/progressive angenda...one of those people that complain about SJWs and don't accomplish anything) while there's been suggestions, no one has ever actually complained about how the dolls look except for faux feminists and mainstream media. All of these articles talking about the new Barbies are full of comments like this: "I'm glad this happened, future generations won't think "I need to be like that doll with impossible measurements" anymore. This doll brought the bitterness to my childhood" (this is literally translated, I took it from here) http://weloversize.com/moda/modelosplussize/historico-barbie-apuesta-al-fin-por-la-diversidad/ And about the fatphobia thing, I have nothing against plus sized models of fat people in general (unless they are super obese), and I support those campaings about models not having to be so skinny for example. What pisses me off is all these people complaining about everything. Examples: Disney princesses are feminine? That's disrespectful to tomboys! There is no black people in Les Miserables because they were in Frace? That's disrespectful to black people! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm mostly MH and EAH collector and currently none of the recent Barbies interests me but I do applaud them trying to introduce more diversity into the line. and The recent the made to move barbies are great as well and I've been hoarding them mainly to swap bodies with my other dolls. lol :P Chaymie Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

They're simply happy over the fact that Barbie was given more realistic body measurements because there's actually some people on this planet that model themselves after Barbie do the extreme to look exactly like her. Now some people that are hardcore Barbie fans & want to model after her can be like her minus the drastic, unrealistic body measurement.

There is no black people in Les Miserables because they were in Frace? That's disrespectful to black people! People don't complain. They observe the environment in whatever they're watching/playing and make actual thought provoking concerns. Has there ever been a case where someone stated that Disney is disrespectful towards tomboys because of feminine Princesses? and the Les Miserables example you pointed out as well?

Do you want to check out that video called "disney princesses look much better this way" of something like that on youtube? Someone photoshops the cartoons to have realistic bodies and faces and they talk for like 10 minutes about how they are much better because they don't set unrealistic standards.

I mean, when you're linking me to websites that are literally made by SJWs, the writers of the articles are SJWs, you're bound to expect discussions most common SJWs would have. None of what you linked me come from a moderate party. Just Tumblr. Literally. P.S. that Tumblr post looks like the many that mock people on Tumblr and their concerns regarding what they watch.
