Barbie is at the same time the most popular toy in the world and one of the most controversial. For decades feminists and physicians have criticized Barbie for creating an unrealistic body image in young girls. After all, Barbie's proportions are literally physically impossible. But it isn't only her measurements that aren't realistic. Many of the women we show on the site are damn near physically perfect. Narry a dimple of cellulite, a stretch mark, or a pimple on their flawless bodies. But, let's face it, your girlfriend and wife isn't like that. Very few human women are without the benefit of plastic surgery. That's what makes this new Barbie doll created by Nickolay Lamm. Her proportions are based on the average 19 year old woman. She also comes with stretch marks on her stomach and thighs. There are also sticker of pimples, tattoos, and scars to customize your Barbie.

His whole point is making a doll that looks like an actual woman. It's pretty cool but I doubt it would catch on with most girls. No 7 year old I know wants to dream that one day she will grow up to have stretch marks on her tummy.
