Ditto to much of what sereneiders has said - good post.
Barbie measures in at about 36-20-34, has no wrinkles or bulges, and she can be had for about ten bucks – sounds fine to us….
Seriously, ‘Barbie and Ken’ are included in the same one-dimensional stereotype as cheerleaders and prom queens – they are (supposedly) shallow minded, and preoccupied with their appearance.
We know several very good looking couples in our vanilla lives. And we think it is unfair (and inaccurate) to assume that ‘extreme good looks’ are an undesirable personal trait. Some of these people simply have 'good genes', and they maintain healthy lifestyles which augment their physical beauty. They are also, on average, well educated, well spoken, and well rounded people (at least those in our ‘40ish’ age bracket).
Barbie and Ken couples are welcome to respond to our ad – we certainly don’t mind the fact that they will be better looking than us. Let's leave the lights on...
