Are your measurements right in order to become a Barbie?

Continuing our research on how a real person would look like in Barbie's measurement I have come across these pictures. The first one we need to examine is that one:

The woman's body is diagrammed in the way that it should be in order to fit Barbie's measurements.

We can observe from bottom to top that her waist would have to shrink extremely reaching almost her belly button, her arms should be the half of their ordinary size, her breasts would have to be smaller and pointing up, her neck would have to be a lot thinner and longer. Her face seems not to be correct as well. She would have to have a thinner chin, her cheeks would have to be thinner as well and her eyes and eyebrows are obviously in he wrong position. 

That is what Barbie's manufacturers suggest. That our body, the one we were born with is not the correct one, the beautiful one, the one we should have. 

Let us take a look at another image I have come across. 

As we can here is a study of the average measurement of US women compared to the measurement of a Barbie. Let us examine them one by one. 

Barbie's neck is 9'' tall when a real woman's is 15''.

Barbie's biceps are 7'' thin when a real woman's is 13''.

Barbie's forearms are 6'' thin when a real woman's is 11''.

Barbie's wrist is 3.5'' thin when a real woman's is 6.5''.

Barbie's waist is 16'' thin when a real woman's is 35''.

Barbie's hips are 29'' thin when a real woman's is 40''.

Barbie's thigh is 16'' thin when a real woman's is 25''.

Is that a healthy image to promote to our children?

I think not.
