Monster Barbie is coming to eat you! (And then purge you, of course)

Not much time to blog this week--the husband is back in town, and he's been having a rough few weeks. The kitties and I are in High Attention Mode. Pancakes, cookies, movies, cuddles...

But here's a short post.

End Fat Talk's facebook page posted this Huffington Post article showing life sized Barbie. We've all read about "Barbie's figure if she was a real woman..."
  • If Barbie were an actual women, she would be 5'9" tall, have a 39" bust, an 18" waist, 33" hips and a size 3 shoe.
  • Barbie calls this a "full figure" and likes her weight at 110 lbs.
  • At 5'9" tall and weighing 110 lbs, Barbie would have a BMI of 16.24 and fit the weight criteria for anorexia. She likely would not menstruate.  [From the above Huff article]

but nothing like a straw Barbie to make the point!
