http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bild_Lilli_doll Barbie has been frequently cited in Size Acceptance literature as a conformity trap within popular culture. Here's Wikipedia to explain her origins as a 'naughty' liberated 50s cartoon character. Note that 'Lilli's' head was originally a baby-character's head... sounds like Betty Boop from 20yrs earlier...:doh:
