Sorry Mom and Dad
There is no denying that Barbie and Ken happen to be some of the most objectively appealing dolls to ever exist. For as long as these two dolls have been around, people everywhere have longed to be like them… Sometimes even parents. But that’s the thing if people are longing to look and be like a doll, something must be a little off…
The beauty standards that Barbie and Ken are held to are incredibly high and unattainable because they are quite literally dolls. For generations, some parents have had issues with how unrealistic and unattainable the bodies of these dolls are. Not only were the bodies of both Barbie and Ken unrealistic but their “perfect” fictional relationship also served as another unattainable goal for millions.
