BARBIE THINKS YOU NEED A RIGHT GOOD SPANKING, SLUT
ITEM [via
trillsie]: Mattel’s new collector’s edition Black Canary Barbie® is due out in September.
Cue the inevitable.

Oh, DO stop.
I’m not particularly interested in defending Barbie, and I’m not that big a fan of Black Canary as a character, either. But I do find it funny that people can look at this toy and say, “O look! Barbie is promoting S&M to children!” Especially when (1) most kids have no concept of what BDSM is, and certainly wouldn’t get it from a Barbie in a superhero outfit, and (2) no one’s ever said that about Black Canary, even though she (and her daughter) have been wearing that costume since 1947.
Come to think of it, I don’t think I’ve ever seen a dominatrix dress like this. Maybe I don’t get out enough. But I have five American dollars that says dominatrixes only wear an outfit like this on request (presumably from customers who want to be dominated by Black Canary).
Besides, a proper BDSM Barbie would look nothing like that.
Show me the ropes,
This is dF

She’d look more like this.

Everyone knows that.
