In reading the poem Barbie Doll By Marge Piercy we come across the struggle our society faces on a whole on woman young, adults, teens, and little girls is to aspire to be like a barbie doll. We are to blame like in line 1-2 its stated:
"This girlchild was born as usual
and presented dolls"
So we are to blame for the girls failing to live up to be a barbie doll but also not explaining to them that barbie is really plastic and fake. meanwhile tell them its doesn't matter how you look on the outside your true beauty is judge on what's on the inside and looks can only get you so far ahead in life. Finally as you read and see lines from the poem which stated:
Then in the magic of puberty, a classmate said: You have a great big nose and fat legs.
To conclude when you have come in touch with your true beauty those words people say to you or about you will not hurt you no more or feel the need to please society as a whole instead live for yourself and enjoy life because God made us all different shapes, sizes, height, nationality etc...and if we all like a barbie doll we all be fake a copy not original at all just duplicates of each other.
