Only the Chinese outnumber them. The most beloved woman on the planet would never let us down. In the war of good against evil, Barbie enlisted, saluted, and marched off to Iraq. She arrived at the front wearing made-to-measure land, sea, and air uniforms reviewed and approved by the Pentagon. Barbie is accustomed to changing professions, hairdos, and clothes. She has been a singer, an athlete, a paleontologist, an orthodontist, an astronaut, a firewoman, a ballerina, and who knows what else. Every new job entails a new look and a complete new wardrobe that every girl in the world is obliged to buy. In February 2004, Barbie wanted to change boyfriends too. For nearly half a century she had been going steady with Ken, whose nose is the only protuberance on his body, when an Australian surfer seduced her and invited her to commit the sin of plastic. Mattel, the manufacturer, announced an official separation. It was a catastrophe. Sales plummeted. Barbie could change occupations and outfits, but she had no right to set a bad example. Mattel announced an official reconciliation.”", "creator": { "@type": "Person", "name": "Eduardo Galeano" }, "url": "https://sms4smile.com/quotes/eduardo-galeano/barbie-goes-to-war-there-are-more-than-a-billion-barbies-only-the/", "image": { "@type": "ImageObject", "@id": "https://sms4smile.com/quotes/i/971/eduardo-galeano-1015_bad-example_barbie-goes-to-war-there-are-more-than-a_318762.jpg", "contentUrl": "https://sms4smile.com/quotes/i/971/eduardo-galeano-1015_bad-example_barbie-goes-to-war-there-are-more-than-a_318762.jpg", "url": "https://sms4smile.com/quotes/i/971/eduardo-galeano-1015_bad-example_barbie-goes-to-war-there-are-more-than-a_318762.jpg", "width": 1080, "height": 1080, "caption": "“BARBIE GOES TO WAR There are more than a billion Barbies.
