M.G. Lord Quote

It is a saga of mothers and daughters, men and women, hope, despair, passion, and the striving after an impossible American ideal. Barbie is an emblem of femininity, a concept quite different from biological femaleness. Barbie was invented by women for women, and the wrath brought to bear upon Barbie by some women is perhaps wrath deflected from themselves.
