S&M Barbie lashed by public (Pictures at link)

"BARBIE’S new S&M look has whipped up a storm – with protesters dubbing it “filth”.

The doll’s image is transformed with kinky fishnets, motorcycle jacket, black gloves and boots.

Makers Mattel say Black Canary Barbie, out in September, is based on a DC comic superhero of the same name.

But religious group Christian Voice said: “Barbie has always been on the tarty side and this is taking it too far.

A children’s doll in sexually suggestive clothing is irresponsible – it’s filth.”

But Wonder Woman and Poison Ivy, who arguably wear less than Black Canary (at least on top) are a-ok?

Must be the leather and fishnets. Gratuitous skin = A-ok! Fishnets and leather = over-sexed tramp.

Or something.

Give her an oversized head, rediculously pouty lips, way more eyeshadow, and it's a Bratz!

Nahhh. It's nowhere near slutty enough to be a My Little Streetwalker Bratz doll

A good number of BRATZ dolls wear less, but if it's in the SUN, it HAS to be TRUE!!
