Who Knew? Barbie Is a Lactivist!

Seen one morning in my kitchen:
My 4.5-year-old took the dress off her Barbie doll. My 23-month-old picked up the doll and put it to her mouth. “Aww, how sweet!” I thought. “She’s giving her a kiss! No, wait, she’s nursing!”
I used to worry that my girls got the wrong ideas about body image from Barbie dolls, but clearly they know the true purpose of Barbie’s ample breasts!
