Are Barbies just for children?

Question

I found them in my closet, and I was playing with them and just as Skipper and Ken were about to have a steamy affarir, my boyfriend walked in on me! He must think I have something wrong with me!!

Answer 1

Well, anything that interests you.

Answer 2

kids play with them....adults collect them

Answer 3

Stereotype says that Barbies are just for 8-year-olds but if you still enjoy playing with them, it doesn't mean you're retarded. It just means you're more in touch with your inner child than others.

Besides, Barbies are a symbol of curvaceous perfection, which is hard to achieve in reality. So a bit of role-playing with dolls never hurt anyone.

P.S. I still have my Barbie collection. I even got one last christmas as a joke, which brings it to a grand total of 38  =)

Answer 4

Well, it depends on how you play with them..(examples)

If you are like, Let's have some Tea, Yay a Tea Party, then it is a little childish..

But, if you are like, making the barbie dolls do real-like adult stuff, then I guess it could be for all ages.

Answer 5

THAT IS AWESOME!!! No, there's nothing wrong with you. I play w/ Barbie's w/ my daughter. But when I was a teenager I used to play w/ them...w/ a cousin who is mentally challenged...hmm, maybe there is something wrong with you. Ahh forget it, you're fine.

Answer 6

Answer 7

I don't think he will think that you are werid. But, I have not played with Barbies since I was 10.

Answer 8

There was a mom and  daughter that had collected them until needing money for college.  The auction of them payed her tuition.  There are many of us adults that from childhood to senior citizen status that still has barbies.

Answer 9

don't worry, I am 19 and occasionally get my "my little ponies" out from under my bed :p:p

Answer 10

Well, what you should have done is tell him that you were setting up some kind of romantic roll play.  The dolls would represent you and him and, well, this is what you would be doing later.

Answer 11

No, not at all. If you like playing with them then no one should put you down about it. I still like playing with barbies because it is fun to design them and fix up their room.
