"S&M Barbie" Flogged By Religious Groups
"S&M Barbie" Flogged By Religious Groups
A new Barbie due out in September has whipped some Christian groups into a frenzy. It seems that Black Canary Barbie's fashion statement, borrowed from the DC Comics character of the same name, is exciting a controversy. Some Christians have called the doll "filth." So, is Barbie's get up too prurient? Or are the protesters perverts? One does wonder if six year old girls are really reading S&M into the dolls. Or do the priggish protesters really have dirty minds? One thing's for sure: If the controversy really heats up collectors will certainly be snatching their S&M Barbies ASAP. But one wonders if these Christian complainers were aware of Cat Woman Barbie:

I know it
Now these things are going to sell like hot-cakes. It's kinda like the whole Piss Christ thing. You have a piece of art that would never get much attention outside of the museum, but the minute some dumb-ass Chistians pile on the artist is rocketed to international celebrity. Will they never learn? KM
That, and how many of them buy them in secret?
No doubt there are some out there who go out and buy them anyway because they have a child or relative who wants one. Why does it seem that churches use guilt to control their flock and the greatest source of creating guilt is to make perfect normal human sexuality dirty?
DO YOU HAVE THE WRITE STUFF?
certainly true
It's also interesting how many of the most extreme religious puritans end up in really sleazy sex scandals. The more you try to repress it the more weird it gets until it finally breaks through in some really sordid manner. The dominatrix is actually a product of attaching dirtiness to sex.
