How Much Does Barbie Weigh?

first of all i am a her and everyone does have to be skinny in order for the world to exsist. it is the fat people who are causing global warming because of their extremely high body heat. eventually the world will just collapse under the tremendous weight on the earth. and to clarify i think anyone who eats more than 500 calories a day is a fat pig. america is becoming an abomination because all of its people have a bmi higher than 15. i am 15 years old and 60 pounds and i am perfect. my bones are sticking out all over and my boyfriend thinks i'm gorgeous. when i was at my fattest, 75 lbs., i was fat as anything and now i am beautiful.

I've heard, 'the meat is sweeter closer to the bone!'

Hillarly Clinton has jiggly thighs! But so did Monica... so let us draw the following conclusion: BILL CLINTON LOVES JIGGLY THIGHS!

So... the lesson here is, that some men, including the former leader of the free world LOVE jiggly thighs!

But... Hillary being an average-bodied woman, with inner thigh fat, and a probable jelly-roll underneath her girtle (which she wears underneath all of her de la Renta dresses and St. Johns pant suits is still not qualified to be our Commander and Chief.

Hillary Clinton is evil personified. Her "healthcare" system will be a massive failure- as it will make creat waiting lists for treatment, and can not work in a diverse culture. Socialized healthcare is not saving Europe, Asia, or Canada from the obesisty epidemic, and will ruin the American system.

Besides for that I would like to remind people that fatness isn't an issue that medcine should be "treating" or "curing" except in few rare cases- It is a get off your ass and move issue... and a "put down the french fries and Big Macs" issue- Even Slick Willie (Bill Clinton) knows that.. and he knows jiggly thighs (besides for his own).

I think Bill would have chased a cabbage if you put a skirt on it!

What is wrong with all of you??? Choosing a president has absolutely nothing to do with how they look. Listen, you could not be 60 pounds and 15 or you would be dead. Barbie is anatomically incorrect and could not walk upright if she were a real woman. She is not an example of utopian society yet to come. In fact, during the Renasssiance ,which was the age of Da Vinci, larger people were considered beautiful and skinny people were ugly. Its obviously healthier to be a normal weight for your height but skinny or fat shouldn't have anything to do with anything but health.

-B

Which is exactly my point- We need to look at Greek and Roman statues of Amazons that had just a little jiggle to their thighs and tell people to look like them. Give people a realistic ideal- that is easy to acheive without forcing them onto any extreme diet. No diet-needed bodies!!!!
Bodies that require the same things they required to be healthy 2000 years ago!!! Activity and nurishment. Tell people to eat fancy expensive food- not Doritos! Fancy food almost always equates with smaller portions and healther choices.Filet Mingon isn't bad for you... Taco Bell is, Fancy French Food may be rich, but the portions are small and are still healtheir and tastier than anything at McDonalds. Or we should all eat hommus and pita, schwarmma, dates and figs. Anyone hear of the Torah diet? Only eatng foods mentioned in the Torah? It works.
Its the best lifestyle ever! A lifestyle from year 0, with modern technology to help out with real sickneses and diseases, cancer treatments, etc- not fatness!

wow that is just wrong...on so many levels

Being young myself, I understand the pressure of everything around you, wanting you to be skinny, to fit in and stuff. I'm not skinny. My weight isn't the healthiest either. But girls will always be revolved around their looks, weight, hair, whatever. It's the way we work. Weather people deny it or not. Some more than others, I can certainly vouch for that. Barbie is so unrealistic, it's not even funny. Hell, I hate seeing little kids playing with her. But what can I do? If somebody creates a doll, with curves etc that is a realistic weight, do you think little girls, and in some cases.. little boys, will start playing with it? I wouldn't have. I loved Barbie's up until I was seven. This relates back to children growing up to fast, I mean, I'm only turning 13 in a few days, whether you consider everything I've said complete bulls**t or not, I've grown up fast. I wanted to be a teenager. Now. Quick, smart. But I couldn't, although I remember like it was last nights dinner how happy I was playing with bratz, barbies, and making mud cakes in the backyard. I've had to grow up fast, due to personal experiences, but being an.. not so skinny teen, I know what the pressure is.

Somebody mentioned above that they don't understand why females are so concentrated on their weight, I just suppose its because there is a lot of pressure on you, while going through school, in the workplace and so many other things that I can't explain.

It isn't easy to change what you think, what you've grown up thinking, and have been taught, to change it to just accepting yourself for who you are. I still don't accept myself, but I'm loosing weight healthily, and seeing the difference to how I was just a few months ago. I don't know whether my comment will make any sense what so ever, but I just wanted to submit my oppinion, because people my age, don't really get an option do that often, and for it to officially count.

Barbie is my idol.

Hi Fatty!

I was reading some of the comments on this website page and I would just like to know why you believe all fat girls should be executed? I was fat myself acouple of years ago and than I managed to lose 60 pounds, so I know the feeling of being both fat and average weight. And in my opinion I don't think it's right calling a person suicidal as Hilary called you without actually personal knowing the person. Anyways, I was just interesting in knowing why you personally believe fat girls should be executed.

Take Care : )

Hey Fatty!

I don't know if you are actually skinny or fat but it does seem like you are nothing but a liar. After reading all the comments you posted it seems that you just want attention and it seems like recieved more than enough from other members who posted. So, congratulations and by the way 15 years old + 60 pounds= DEATH!!

Wishing you all the best

hey mary i do believe that fat people should be executed because they don't benefit the world in any which way. their ugly faces and stretch marks are an abomination to this world and are like litter on the sidewalk, they make our world dirty and smelly and frankly i just don't like 'em. nothing you can say will change mine or hilary's opinion!
sincerely, fatty

I am telling you... what has the upcoming election done to the world! Insults are like music to your ears fatty! By the way FATTY you are not exactly helping the country either because you obviously are a barbie loving republican.... That is what republicans think are most important!... and you are causing global warming if you consider fat people as litter. you are way confused lady... Get a grip on reality!

Does anyone know the dimensions of Ken were he life-sized?

If Ken were a real man-he would be seven-feet, eight-inches tall. An average man would have to add seven inches to his chest and about eight inches to his neck to equal Ken's measurements.

Oh Dr. J you are a bad bad man. All I thought was "well he is quite taller than Barbie, so 8' tall?".

you rock fatty!
i check this blog regularly just to view your comments.
you should right more often. You sound intelligent!

I think most women here would be sadly disappointed in Ken were he "real"!

110 pounds? Well you have to keep in mind that Barbie is meant to be idealistic, with all her different proffessions and everything. She is an example as to how women should be; strong, independent, healthy, keep fit, have jobs etc. Theres nothing ''disturbing'' about this, but I do agree that there was no need to include the scale with the doll so that young, over weight children to not feel compelled to live up to that size.

oh no not at all barbie is just showing kids you have to be thin

Hello Barbie is the stupidisthing since stupid was invented! I dont understand how parents can let there kids play with such a thing, and i know that i was once one of those little girls that used to play with the dolls, and now i think that its just sick!

Barbies waist also widened like heaps in the 70s, if you go onto wikipedia, you can even see for your selves!

most kids who play with Barbie's are young, and shouldn't weigh over 110 pounds any way. It wouldn't be necessary, and it would be alot more expensive to have a different scale along with it. If a kid does weigh over 110 pounds, then they are tall, not fat.

by the way fatty, stop making fun of people. I agree anyone who is fat, like me, you know, it is our, own fault, but still God loves everyone.

Be civil? Always.... ok. So Barbie is modeled off German Bild Lilli dolls and the American Actress Vera Ellen :

Original Barbie:

Remember there are two places Americans turn to for their aesthetic ideals: Germans and Hollywood. Remember Giselle Bunchen is a German whose family immigrated to Brazil and she just happens to be born there and has no native blood, Portuguese blood or Brazilian blood. Think a tan Claudia Schiffer.

Fatty's just sh*t-stirring, guys. Some people get a kick out of making troule on internet forums ...

just so you know Katherine, if that is your real name, fatty is not just sh*t-stirring i actually have some real facts that prove the body heat of obese people is causing global warming. and you know mike, i am pretty intelligent. i just saw an interview with hilary last night and she seems to get fatter by the minute. her fake blonde hair sickens me and if enough benighted liberals vote for her i am going to have a myocardial infarction, so there you go Katherine.
And to you Marie, do you really think that i enjoy making fun of people, i actually have a really kind heart. sooooooooooo bugggggggggggg offffffffffffff!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

then use your kindness,this page is for discussion, not fighting

Barbie weighs 110 pounds but she's 6'11" so that would make her bmi 11.2 which is severly underweight.

If every lad looks like Ken and every lass like Barbie, we'd be in danger of severe inbreeding if we produced carbon copies of ourselves instead of genes for diversity.

shes not even a foot tall. if anything 110 sounds over weight. i think people need to start focusing on teaching their kids the proper way to eat, and getting them active. your kids is pretty stupid if she say, "oh my god i have to lose weight because of barbie. i don't think barbie is any childs role modle. i have a 7 year old and she hardly even plays with them anymore. if your 15 year old is obsessing over barbie then you have bigger problems. the only time i hear children complain about their weight is when a women in their life complains about hers.

okay so im 13 and weigh about 100-105 im in x-country running and run about 5 miles a day, am about 5 ft. and have 32C cup breasts how is ot fair that barbie can go around at what like 7ft (as "red panda"put it) with boobs the size of balloons and still be skinny.

i see some of the girls at my skool and think wow i wish i was that skinny and then babrbie goes around saying that she weighs like 110lbs wow now im really depressed

I'm 5'10", 120 lbs ... I'm not anorexic. I'm not bulemic. I don't have an eating disorder. I eat whatever I want, whenever I want, however much I want... I will never be an "amazon". I'll never have big boobs, a nice ass, and shapely thighs. I'm built to be a stick figure. What kind of ideal should I be looking to, then? I tried working out, but I just kept losing weight instead of gaining muscle like I had wanted, so I stopped. I would LOVE to have jiggly thighs! I'd KILL for a curvy body like America Ferrera's! I'd give anything to have some junk in my trunk. But I'm destined to live the life of a skinny b***h.

What I don't understand is why it's okay for people to tell me that I'm too skinny, and that I should eat a burger... but it's not okay for me to tell someone that maybe they should work out a little.

i am 17 , 5 ft 6 and weigh 102 pounds.
i don't have any problems at all
and i think barbie is disgusting
i mean it's good to want to be thin
but not that thin
have you seen the dallas cowboys barbie?
she looks anorexic
other barbies look no more or less skinny than eachother but this one has crossed the line

i thought the image was ditorted at first. but you can find it at stores websites and stuff and they ALL look like that
it's sick

Okay well I think that there are a lot of people dealing with weight issues here. I do think Barbie weight is ideal, but I think it's rediculous that people are going to kill themselves over it. It's merely a doll and if you're going to waste your life away trying to lose weight, then I pity you. I think that guys like different types of girls, so why are we all trying to look the same?

I am 13-year old and I am 5 1/2 feet tall and weight 109 pound and i am PREFECT just the way I am it also I am NOT fat at all you must look like you about to die in any second.I AM BEAUTIFUL AND EVERYONE THINKS THAT TOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

-JOJO

this is all ridiculous. barbie is not to skinny. i mean SHE IS A PLASTIC DOLL! its not like she is a real person who is a roll model for girl of all ages. & also, if you are 15 years old and 60 pounds then you have a real problem. it is not attractive to have your bones stickin out of your body. im sorry, but this is just my opinion.

wowwoowowowo i agree you hoeee xD

....I can't believe some of you people have taking "Fatty's" comments seriously. It's an utter parody. A bad one, granted, poorly thought out and absolutely amatuerish and sophomoric - but a parody.

Then again, here I am responding to an article that is over a year old. I suppose we all have problems.

And either use of the scale (I do believe it is for the Barbie doll, as it comes with a set of other mini Barbie accessories) is beyond creepy. I am herefore never buying my neice Barbie anything.

Okay, well, the toy's directed to KIDS. Most little kids that play with barbies aren't 110 pounds. Just like on many 'doctor' toy sets, the height chart only goes up to 4 feet. Why? Because the kids are that tall, and it makes them feel special that they're tall, or they seriously want to direct it to people that size. And why would some teenager/adult be playing with this toy in the first place if they wanted to look like barbie? And if a little kid wanted to weigh like barbie, well at that age, you REALLY should be under 110 pounds. If not, then the pressure's a GOOD thing.
