zchi4life,
tracy and todd?! i CAN'T believe you came up with that...you're RIGHT! tracy had red hair! i remember i thought that was cool cause i have red hair too. i don't think barbie and ken actually had CHILDREN. i know there was skipper, which was barbie's little sister...and kendra who came later, which was ANOTHER little sister. *and where are barbie's parents, i ask you??* there WAS a barbie which was "pregnant" and you could "take out" the baby/fetus but this was taken off the shelves rather quickly because it 1. gave children the idea that babies came from mother's "stomachs" and 2. you could pop off the front of her stomach and take out the child. not too anatomically correct. so i don't think barbie actually HAD children...maybe she was just the eternal babysitter.
and about g.i.joe being a secret father of barbie's alleged children, i say definately. ken was SUCH a wuss! remember the "cool" version of ken that came with the earring? it was rumored that this version of ken looked to "homosexual" and was snatched up by gay men everywhere. seriously, ken was a pansy. barbie wanted a real man, ken was off playing golf or something *probably with tracy's husband todd" and g.i. joe was her "real american hero". 'nuff said.
one more quick thing: i'd be VERY interested to know what the guys on this board think about this whole conversation. i know they've gotta be sitting at thier computers, reading these posts and thinking "no WONDER i still don't understand women...i'm trying to create serious topics and they're talking about barbie dolls". but we ladies ALL know this is a VERY serious topic...
