Summary
Barbie is often considered to have the perfect body, with stick-like legs, a slim waist, and stunning curves. Many people use her as an example of what they strive to look like themselves. But in fact, research suggests that Barbie’s body is blown way out of proportion- and, if she were real, her slender neck wound’t even be able to support her head. So why do we strive for such an unrealistic and UNHEALTHY image? Have we forgotten what Christ says is true about our bodies and appearance? After all, God sent Jesus to be the standard of perfection- not Barbie!
