Barbie Doll turns 50 years old
Posted by Miss Moneypenny

Will their Silicone figure bounce back to compete with the plastic beauty of Barbie?
Since the debut of Barbie Doll at the American International Toy Fair in New York on March 9, 1959, the leggy amply breasted slim-waisted blond plastic fashion icon has been setting new social standards.
Many critics believe that Barbie’s unrealistic plastic proportions pose problems for young girls who may have struggled with their body image and self-esteem issues.
Although the trendy toy may have inspired young girls, her unattainable measurements have been a topic of a bizarre controversy for years.
For fun, plastic Barbie can be compared to “real” life Barbies by projecting her 6-inch bust, 3.75-inch waist, 5-inch hips, and her 11.5 to 12-inch height to the “real” life dimensions of two “Spalding” Barbies:
Pamela Anderson was 36-22-34 @ 5′ 7″ (1) Age: 41 years old
Plastic Barbie would be 34-21-28 ( 5.583 x 6 – 3.75 -5)
Ironically, Bottle-Blonde Pam Anderson’s natural bust was 34-inches.
Dolly Parton was 40-20-36 @5′ 2″ (2) Age: 63 years old
Plastic Barbie would be 31-19-26 ( 5.1667 x 6 – 3.75 -5)
Seems like both plastic Barbie and the rubber Barbie’s have achieved similar unattainable measurements if the huge difference of the bust measurement due to silicone breast implants wasn’t a factor. For the plastic Barbie doll to be more life-like, her plastic hips should be 5.3125 inches yet, Barbie’s critics need to remember she is a girl’s play doll.

More than a mouthful is a waste! At least that’s what grandpa told me when I was four (I think he spit tobacco juice on my bee stings around that time too)
Hi Bobby,
Haha… I’m all for all natural breasts yet, I wonder how many men would be attracted to breasts the size of Barely there boobs? 😉
OooooOOOooh I see – up top! Where it belongs! 🙂
Hi Olga,
Thanks to new WordPress comment features, I can uplift a Bra’s comments to where they belong! 🙂
Where’s my comment?
Sorry, but Chicken on the Barbie’s breasts are kinda disappointing…..HAAAAAAAAAAAA!
Hi Olga,
Barbie’s Chicken Breasts need some Silicone Stuffing and two Chicken Pop-Up Timers for her nipples! 😀
VERY NICE !!!!! 😉
I had a feeling you’d Pop Up for that Punch line! 🙂
I have got to do something lunatic next week. I need more time to play with my chickens!!

I cannot decide if I love Cougar Barbie or Chicken Barbie more … some well spiced breasts on the chicken model !!!!!!! Ohhhhh savory 😉
Hi Speedy,
No doubt, the head rooster of the coop will stuff Cougar Barbie’s spicy chicken breasts by seducing Chicken Barbie with Ken’s Chicken McNuggets!
LOL thanks for making me laugh today. The ad parody was wicked!
Hi Milkberry,
I wonder if Boomer Barbie, the world’s most famous cougar, and the younger commitment-phobic Ken Dolls are sold separately? 😉
