It's Barbie in a burkha: World-famous doll gets a makeover to go under the hammer for 50th anniversary. [link to www.dailymail.co.uk]

One of the world's most famous children's toys, Barbie, has been given a makeover - wearing a burkha.

Wearing the traditional Islamic dress, the iconic doll is going undercover for a charity auction in connection with Sotheby's for Save The Children.

More than 500 Barbies went on show yesterday at the Salone dei Cinquecento, in Florence, Italy. The company director of Laird Assessors from The Wirral, Cheshire, said: 'Bring it on Burkha Barbie, I think this is a great idea.

'I think this is really important for girls, wherever they are from they should have the opportunity to play with a Barbie that they feel represents them.

The virtue of courage is a prerequisite for the practice of all other virtues, because otherwise one is virtuous only when virtue has no cost. There are times when something needs to be done, and yet we know that if we step up and do this needful thing, we will pay a heavy personal price. -C.S. Lewis

It's Barbie in a burkha:

Quoting: snark

Maybe these are the sort of dolls Muhammad's pre-pubescent wife Aisha was playing with:

"Narrated 'Aisha: I used to play with the dolls in the presence of the Prophet, and my girl friends also used to play with me. When Allah's Apostle used to enter they used to hide themselves, but the Prophet would call them to join and play with me. (The playing with the dolls and similar images is forbidden, but it was allowed for 'Aisha at that time, as she was a little girl, not yet reached the age of puberty.)" -- Bukhari 8.73.151

I think "Crack-Whore" Barbie, and "Pimp-Meister" Ken are more appropriate presents for the upcoming Winter-Festival.

This is supposed to be the 'land of the free' is it not? If Barbie wants to walk around in the nude she should be allowed too without snarking or commment, if Barbie wants to walk around in a full body tent, she should be allowed too too withour snarking or comment. Why is it the supposed freedoms within the USA are so restricted to only very particular points of view?

LOL! No, GI Joe can't stone her. Must have Ken's wearing turbans for that!

And if she dares to put on western clothing, she must be taken out to the driveway and run over four times with the family car.

One of the most important aspects of conspiracy theories is being able to discern when there isn't one.

I'm an expat American living in a compound in KSA. I wear an abaya every day over my shorts and t-shirt. The other day, we were out visiting some workers on a date farm. The machete-carrying old man called us all dogs, but I didn't tell the other women what he'd said. This is no country for women.
