Tattoo Barbie: Barbie's Midlife Crisis? (Photos)

Totally Stylin Tattoo Barbie

Portland Parenting Examiner

Barbie’s 50th birthday is March 9 and guess what just landed in the toy stores: Totally Stylin’ Tattoo Barbie!

Each package includes several pieces of trendy threads and several temporary tattoos. The Mattel doll is being sold for $35 on Amazon. Can you believe it? Barbie’s midlife crisis! We wonder: What would Jeff Eldridge say about this?

Ok I have 5 tattoos but they are all in places where I can cover them up if need be and none of them have the name of a boyfriend/lover/husband on it.  I do have my daughters name under angel wings but never get a man’s name tattooed on you.  Lordie, Barbie, honey…NO, NO, NO!

I detest tattoos….no matter where they are located on a person’s body,  so I’m not in favor of anything that "speaks" to young girls along that line.  

Call me traditional but tattoos do not enhance anyone’s looks.

Traditional isn’t exactly what i would call you, old fashioned, yeah. But everyone has their likes and dislikes.

I am 100% with you on this, so that makes me old-fashioned, too.

The Tramp Stamp Barbie? What will they think of next, Inmate Barbie with her own prisoner uniform?

Oh my, Barbie has a "tramp stamp". Any mother who would allow her daughter to own this Barbie probably has her own tramp stamp and dresses her daughter like a ‘princess’.

OMG, I just realized, her tramp stamp actually says "Ken". That is pretty disgusting considering this is a doll promoted for young girls.

Neck tattoos are the absolute worst of all.  I can deal with a tat anywhere but there.  I’m still trying to figure out why seeing a woman with a tat on her neck makes me angry.
