Wal-Mart pulled Barbie's friend Midge from the shelves because she's pregnant. They say it promotes teenage pregnancy. Funny, Midge is married to Alan since 1991, already has a 3-yo son and wears a wedding ring. And this gives a negative image? And the My Scene Barbies aren't promoting a negative image? They only think about clothes, cellphones and boys... oh wait, that's what teenagers are supposed to think about. Not family and icky stuff like that. They sell video games that promote violence, magazines that promote puking up every meal to look beautiful, they even sell Spawn toys that are some of the goriest toys ever seen. But a married pregnant woman? No, that's definitely negative. *nods*
>_< Idiots.
