And the point of this doll is?

Filed under "Just can't make this stuff up"

Really - ask yourself - when properly attired, does it matter if there is a doll there or a few popsicle sticks or wires underneath that cloth?

Burhka Barbie
 
OK, brand me "culturally insensitive", but I also know that the Islamic religion and the culture it engendered (in its most backward form practiced by the Taliban in Afghanistan), also embraced this as well:
Taliban Execution

So, when will all the feminists unite and condemn this doll?

Yeah, I thought so - Western feminists have remained all but silent as their sisters have been made to be third class citizens, harassed if out in public on their own, discriminated in the general culture, subject to outlandish strictures, and in the case above - killed.

But we've got Burkha Barbie - thanks Mattel, for blessing this project!

Sheesh....
