Barbies

Is Barbie a suitable toy for young girls?

Think about mental health and body image versus tradition.

I think there's a lot going on with fashion and marketing that negatively impacts women and then there's Eugenia Cooney.

That girl needs to eat a few cheeseburgers!

That girl needs to eat a few cheeseburgers!

Her fans and haters beg her to eat all of the time. She's getting banned on multiple social media platforms because anorexia is considered self harm when it comes to the platform's terms and conditions. It's considered a contagious bad influence. Kids are seeing her promoting that whether she means to or not. It's just not appropriate. I'm a big supporter for mental health and YouTube shouldn't allow her to upload. They're enabling her just like someone shouldn't give an alcoholic beer. They're not helping the problem.

Yeah, she needs some help, that’s for sure.

No more or less suitable than G.I. Joe action figures for boys. It can be argued they promote violence.

Yeah I remember moms arguing that back when I was a kid.

Your Honor, I rest my case. Would the prosecution like to cross-examine?
