I won't get started on my opinions about Barbie®, but I just stumbled upon this photo of a full-size version made by a college student to show how unrealistic the doll's proportions are:
The student, Galia Slayen, pictured with Barbie, has personal experience with anorexia and made the figure to draw attention to the problem of eating disorders and body image.
