I know those two girls you are talking about.

Nice. Third from the left and second from the right are barbie quality minus the blonde thing. Very nice ladies!

damn i wish i had some pics from ASU, all the girls are Barbie dolls. Theta, Alpha Phi, Kappa Kappa Gamma, DG, KD....there all absolutely gorgeous. check out ASU's section on greekyearbook.com any of the sororities events are filled with barbie dolls.

I hope not since I am Persian;)

I dont understand, why is that girl wearing a shirt that says Pi Kappa Alpha??

Probably because she is their chapter sweetheart...or dating/engaged to a brother...

Most of them, actually.

Or Illinois, were it's just as gloomy in the winter! :p Good luck with the blahs, PM_Mama! Just think about how beautiful MI is in the spring - and only another month or so until it gets that way!!!

The girl is making a point. Granted, we are all presumably much more mature and enlightened than anyone who would think that women are only worth their Barbie status. But we live in a world where there are billions of people who do judge women just like that, and it's a bit disapointing to see proof that such judgement calls exist so close to home. I mean everyone knew this already, but still, who wants to have proof of it shoved in their face?

And yeah, the thread is presumably about "Barbie" looking women, who represent a particular blonde stereotype- but ummmm most of these pictures are being judged for general attractiveness. Combine this with the fact that apparently women who aren't white (brunettes are ok, but no black women?) don't qualify for posting, and it can grate on a woman's nerves a bit. I'm not trying to spoil your fun, and I definitely understand where both the guys and aurora_borealis is coming from.

But come on now, if you're going to try to say that this isn't about eye candy, then stop making blatent attractiveness judgement calls. Otherwise, perhaps a couple of you should consider that, while you may not find particular woman up to par, doesn't really mean that others don't either- personally there were about 25 girls in the previous pics that actually did look like blonde Barbies but weren't "qualifiers", and another 25 who were definitely hot but deemed unacceptable for this Barbie specific thread. So I guess I'm just saying, you should expect a certain amount of flack when what it seems like what you're doing is trying to put a pc label on generally holding a sorority stereotype beauty pageant. I think that's what aurora was saying also. With that being said, I'm going to go drool over eye candy in the fraternity boy A&F thread, where no one is trying to hide that it's all about the hot booty.

ps- Rudey, I don't understand your personal definition of what a Barbie girl is, but I've read all your posts and I'm still trying to figure it out. Do you just pick girls at random from each pic, or is there a common quality to your preferences? Not being rude, I'm honestly curious...

pps- sorry to add to the mini-drama in your thread, I just thought it was shitty to call someone an "annoying feminist" just because she's making a valid point, or say that just because she's greek she shouldn't post on something that should probably be in chit chat anyway.

Trying to diffuse the situation...
 

Of course these threads are ridiculous, as are most of the threads on GC. Guys like looking at hot girls, girls like looking at hot guys. Sorry if there is disagreement but that is just the way it is! Unless people are being degrading, rude, disrespectful, etc. just let it go! (Up until now I haven't seen any of this but apparently some have been deleted) I'm sure the guys realize that there is more to the female gender than blonde hair and boobs but this isn't exactly the thread to discuss those characteristics. I am off to the A&F model look-alike thread and I can guarantee you that I will not be discussing the personality/intelligence/sensitivity of the guys I think are hot!
Edited to add: This is not directed at any one person so please don't let it spark more controversy!

Jesus,

Lets try to have as little fun as possible? is that the plan?

I guess we should get rid of the "What do you look like" thread, and the "Crush" thread, or the Photo Album thread, so we don't hurt people's feelings.

Well, actually, maybe we should just delete all threads that pertain to fashion/dress/weight loss, etc or anything that has anything to do with opinion, because that's all this thread is, people's OPINIONS.

Yes, Rudey and i may have differing OPINION on what a Barbie is. We are entitled to our own thoughts. He's not going through saying that the girls that aren't barbies don't deserve to be assocatied with Greek Life, or that they don't deserve to live and should starve themselves into anorexia. He's merely saying which girls meet "HIS" criteria as a Barbie.

The outrage would be justified if we had a "DogCatcher" thread and surfed the net to find pictures of the ugliest Greek Men and women out there than laughed at them.

Besides, if a few comments posted on Greekchat are enough to influence someone's self-image or body-image, they have bigger problems than barbie envy.
