wat

Edit: Ok I looked up what they are since I had no clue.

I'm getting tired of stupid things being considered racist. Its a doll, a child's toy. If some people think a black doll is racist, then black barbie is racist too.

The intent of the doll is just that, to be a doll.

In this case, I disagree. They aren't just "black dolls"...they mimic Minstrel show characters, which are inherently stereotypical and racist. Unless black Barbie comes with platinum grillz, a big ass and 6 children...then that would be just as bad.

Its not a stereotype if its true.

That would be like saying I was stereotyping everytime I see a slammed...whatever with stretched tires on 14" spoked wheels that stick out 6 inches past the wheel and i think "woop, messican!". If there were anything other than messicans in there, then it would be a sterotype. But it hasn't happened yet.


hehe ;)
