Welcome to the Barbie Group!

“Barbie has always represented that a woman has choices. Even in her early years, Barbie did not have to settle for only being Ken’s girlfriend or an inveterate shopper. She had the clothes, for example, to launch a career as a nurse, a stewardess, a nightclub singer. I believe the choices Barbie represents helped the doll catch on initially, not just with daughters– who would one day make up the first major wave of women in management and professionals– but also with mothers.”

-- Ruth Handler (creator of the Barbie doll), on being inspired by her young daughter Barbara’s fascination with teenage life and love for fashion dolls.

Has anyone been to one of the US Barbie conventions?? I was wondering what it is like. It seems to be pretty $$ to attend and wondering if it is worth it?
