"The notion that little girls will choose "regular" over "pretty" is ridiculous."

This argument would make sense if you were referring solely to the Lammily doll, which is bland boring as fuck. But these new, diverse body type Barbies? They have the same generically cute and pretty looks, and the same fashion sensibilities; the only difference is in the way their bodies are shaped. Curvy Barbie has curves, Tall Barbie is tall, and Petite Barbie is short and has small boobs. Other than that, they're just as pretty idealized as the standard Barbies.

And as long as they have appealing faces and come with lots of options for clothes and accessories, little girls won't give a shit about anything else.

Thiiis. When I was a kid I always chose barbies by a. their hair color (I wanted them to have the same hair as me, so black or brown) b. what accessories they came with. And then I pretended they were ninjas who fought dragons. Little kids aren't that complex, this is just about giving them more options.

It's true, my Barbies were constantly changing clothes, and I had more outfits then I had Barbies. Dressing them up was always my favorite part.

Exactly. As a kid I would have loved some Barbies that looked different. I had a bunch that looked the same and got bored of them. But the ones with black/brown/red hair and black skin I played with because they were different characters to me.
