Barbie's Tramp Stamp
From the Baltamore Sun comes this inspiring story about Barbie dolls.
Tattooed Barbie
Barbie’s turning 50 and having a mid-life crisis. The Los Angeles Times reports that Mattel is rolling out a tattooed Barbie, and opening a new Barbie megastore in Shanghai. (She’s not just tattooed, but comes with a tattoo gun. I’m just thrilled. Here’s a picture.)Barbie has also joined Twitter, reporting recently that she “is back together with her boyfriend!” (I must be behind, because I didn’t know Ken was on the outs. Or maybe it isn’t Ken.)
If you like to buy one here’s the LINK, or if you’d like to see her in person go HERE, I’ve heard she works Thursday and Friday nights 7 till closing.
The tramp stamp, also known as the coital bullseye.
Or the porn method of birth control.
I’m glad I don’t have daughters. The sexualization onslaught is like knocking the sea back with a broom.
It’s Skank Barbie!
And it’ll be interesting when in the coming decades it’s found that the increase in skin cancers are directly related to all the chemicals in the inks people are shoving into their hides.
…And that we can directly trace skin cancer in young women to their getting tattoed because they were influenced by the Barbi doll!
Having three sons I can find this totally amusing. All I have to do is keep reminding them to wrap-up.

Outlaw: A few years ago, Mattel scrapped Ken for a new doll–Blaine, an Australian surfer dude with blond highlights. Little girls all over the world were not impressed. So now Ken is back.
Outlaw,
I looked through the gallery of the Yellow Rose and didn’t find Barbie. I’ll keep looking for updates, though.
