This nation is going to hell on rails... While I can appreciate the idea of how magazines, dolls, etc. can lead women and young girls to having esteem issues, it’s patently ridiculous to outlaw something for this reason. It’s not the parent’s responsibility to provide psychological well being of their children, so let’s blame mattel. If the people of WV ever wonder why their state is in the shape it find itself, they would need to look no further than the idiots they are electing.
I guess I didn’t have issues because I didn’t play with dolls (as a rule; although I liked “adult” dolls like Barbie better than baby dolls). I just played with cars and PlaySkool people and Tinker Toys and animals and so on.
