I’m not against Barbie.  She was a wonderful companion of mine as a young girl.  But I must admit that certain versions of the more modern Barbies are a bit too promiscuous for my taste. 

My Maggie came home yesterday with two of these Promiscuous Barbies she had borrowed from a friend at school.  These under-dressed girls first caught my eye as they came wheeling past me in our hot pink Barbie car. 

Skirts, what skirts?  Nice boots too…

I knelt down by Maggie and asked if she thought the Barbies were dressed modestly.  She reluctantly admitted that they were not.  So we decided the best thing we could do for them was let them borrow clothes from one of our Barbies.  Perhaps Schoolteacher Barbie or Pet-Sitter Barbie would be willing to share?  We asked, and they (good Christian Barbies that they are) were willing to serve these new Barbie friends.

Amazing how these girls cleaned up.  Ray and I joked quietly that they had come to Jesus. 

Pet Sitter Barbie’s khaki capris are a bit too big for this size 0 Barbie.

“Need a ride?  We’re headed to Small Group?”

I don’t think having them around the house for the evening was a bad influence on our girls, but I think it may have negatively impacted Pet Sitter Barbie.  I happened to spot her later wearing absolutely nothing but Promiscuous Barbie’s high heeled boots!
