MADNESS! PADDED BRAS FOR 6 YEAR OLDS!

HATE: Barbie. GIRLS hate Barbie so much that many admit torturing, maiming and even decapitating the doll, according to new research.  The all-American toy has become a "hate figure" among seven to 11-year-old girls, who regard Barbie as a "babyish" symbol of their earlier childhood.  Researchers from the University of Bath questioned 100 youngsters about their attitudes to a range of branded products and found the iconic doll provoked the strongest reaction. "The girls we spoke to see Barbie torture as a legitimate play activity, and see the torture as a `cool' activity in contrast to other forms of play with the doll," said Dr Agnes Nairn, who headed the study. "The types of mutilation are varied and creative, and range from removing the hair to decapitation, burning, breaking and even microwaving."  Children told researchers they disliked the toy because they regarded it as a feminine icon, "plastic", and an unwelcome reminder of their childhood. "The most readily expressed reason for rejecting Barbie was that she was babyish, and girls saw her as representing their younger childhood out of which they felt they had now grown," said Dr Nairn. "It's as though disavowing Barbie is a rite of passage and a rejection of their past."  The study also found that while boys expressed feelings of nostalgia and affection towards Action Man, girls' attitude to Barbie remained hostile.  "The doll was regarded as an inanimate object by girls rather than a treasured toy and friend. Barbies are not special, they are disposable and rejected," said Dr Nairn.

Which all actually explains those "well loved" and "played with" flea market dolls.
