I see something wrong with her: the anorexic body type. Seriously. I'm not just saying she's thin. I'm saying that her body is shaped in that wasting way of women who are starving to death. I've had issues with dolls like this (I think there is another brand that markets the same basic shape). I'd rather be told to aspire to look like a Barbie than like this. It's kind of scary. But maybe that's just because I did years of ballet as saw girls who legitimately has her figure.
I mentioned that because I'm looking to trade this doll with another person on the MH community, which is why I made this post in the first place. I didn't have any other account (flikr, photobucket) to post the pics, and the community is on lj, so I just did it here.
I hadn't even noticed that, actually, possibly because they're not meant to be human (this one is a vampire). Of course, I'm not disagreeing with the weird-ass body standards that are presented to younger girls, just that I hadn't noticed it with these. (I was too busy envying their shoes.)
