"When A Girl's Incidentals, Are No Bigger Than Two Lentils...Then To Me That Doesn't Spell Success!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"
Any Theater Queen worth their salt knows this line was first uttered by Jean Stapleton, the original Mrs. Strakosh, in the Original Broadway Production of "Funny Girl," which turns 50, this coming March! The line certainly did wonders for Jean, who went on to fame as Edith Bunker, and it certainly did wonders for Dolly Parton! I don't have to say a thing more!
But now distributors are trying to do the same to...Barbie!!!!!! Yes, Barbie; and, I am telling you, this is a violation of American Decency!!!!!!!!!! Barbie is not about being stacked and having a rack, she is about being perfectly proportioned, something us girls and gay men have in common, and which has driven both groups to things like crash diets, or anorexia!!!!!!!!!!!!!
But, now there is also Plus Size Barbie, and not only is she stacked, she looks obese, and White Trash, like Mama June on "Honey Boo Boo!" Once upon a time, girls, makeovers were about being more attractive, now they are telling us to eat like pigs and just march ourselves into Mr. Pinky's Hefty Hideaway, or variations thereof!!!!!!!!!!!!
Instead of jumping on Obamacare, why don't the Republicans get all worked up about this???? Maybe because they don't care!!!! Maybe because obesity means diabetes, health issues and death, which means they can make more Republicans???? And now they are going to blame it all on...Barbie?????????????
I call for a ban on all plus sized Barbies!!!!!!!!!!! It is OK to be plus sized, if you are girls, but what about glamour and elegance???? If you are going to change Barbie's size, dress her tastefully, not like some backwoods tart!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Don't we have enough of those in America, darlings?????????????????????
