Well, you've heard from us quite a bit about the trend in dollZ to encourage little girls to play with teen dolls and everything marketers think that "teen" means. That is, Bratz and their followers party, have a passion for fashion, drink "juice" drinks in cosmo glasses, fly in jet planes, shop, and hang out in hot tubs. WELCOME MALIA AND SASHA to the world of teens. TY has made two dolls, Sasha and Malia, to match their other dolls. They're the same height, look very teen, and even have breasts. What's going on here? And they surround them with butterflies and hearts... typical little girls, soon to be partying little teens? Why couldn't they have found out what Sasha and Malia really like? Give them each a dog and a leash? Nope -- reduced to stereotyped little girls but advanced to preteen age. If I were Michelle, I'd call up TY and say while you might want other little girls to grow up too soon,leave mine alone!
Hey. Commenting on our own blog. Looks like Michele Obama DID comment on the dolls and told Ty they were inappropriate. Good for her!

I showed the link to your blog to my L.A. teacher. She had heard about the Malia and Sasha dolls, and how Michelle Obama was not happy about it. I also told her about this page.

Could the huge popularity of Michelle Obama be a sign of changing attitudes in the fashion industry? Vogue featured Michelle Obama on its cover recently. Michelle Obama in particular has ushered in new era of style and entertaining.

Michelle Obama is smart, but is also a fashion icon. Is this good or bad?

This is fabulous. I think the Bratz dolls send the wrong message to the young girls today.

What do oversexualized presidents' daughters have anything to do with an African-American female rock singer?!

Great job here. I really enjoyed what you had to say. Keep going because you definitely bring a new voice to this subject. Not many people would say what you’ve said and still make it interesting. Well, at least I’m interested.

The text goes on with the useful information, that stork couples are mostly heterosexual (who would have thought?) and that there are 9 male and 7 female storks at the zoo.
