Kahlo was a disabled Mexican artist and activist. She followed the communist ideology and is widely celebrated by feminists for her work and politics. It makes sense that Mattel would use Kahlo as part of an “Inspiring Women” collection, but their depiction of Kahlo contradicts the artist’s ideologies and self-expression. The Kahlo Barbie features light-colored eyes, an able-body and excludes her unibrow. As a Mexican, communist and feminist icon, it is unlikely Kahlo would appreciate her likeness being attributed to a white-washed toy sold for $29.99.

Mattel’s updated image of Kahlo proves that their agenda is less about promoting feminism or honoring historical women and more about keeping their brand afloat in a culture of progression. Lightening Kahlo’s eyes, removing her unibrow and excluding her wheelchair contributes to a sexist ideal of womanhood and beauty. In a statement regarding the “Inspiring Women” series, senior vice president and general manager of Barbie, Lisa McKnight said, “Girls have always been able to play out different roles and careers with Barbie and we are thrilled to shine a light on real-life role models to remind them that they can be anything.”

Am I the only one that thinks these are pretty cool? (besides fatty)

If I have a daughter, I'd rather her look up to an athlete or chef barbie instead of a blonde bimbo barbie.

But yeah, fatty is no bueno.

It’s quite the opposite. Clearly obesity is accepted in America. Almost everybody is fat as frick.



Yes. Dude just look around next time you're sitting in a public place like a restaurant. When you really think about the medical classifications for under/normal/over/obese, like 90% of the people around us every day are at least in the overweight category - if not obese.

It is so extreme that a lot of people who are technically overweight, we don't consider them to be that. Like - we don't even notice it. Especially people who are older/married/parents/grandparents.

Fat is NOT ok



Could Ashley graham drop some lbs, sure but she isn’t obese like hunter mcgrady. Graham is just big person. Hunter is fat

Some of the barbies are actually hotter than the live woman they're supposed to be portraying.
