I thought the point of the article was representation and dolls that looked like as many different people as possible and could therefore be related to. Barbie represents a ridiculous ideal that no girl or woman can ever live up to. The whole franchise should have been gotten rid of ages ago.

she said in the article "where were the dolls that looked like me?". Well, I've never seen a doll that looked like me either, and I'm not in a wheelchair.
