According to this article, Barbie has backed down from the CWA after the Christian group accused the plastic princess of promoting gender bending because her Web site allowed "I don't know" as a gender identification option.
Wasn't the CWA really focusing its attention on the wrong thing though? What's more disturbing to a young, impressionable, Christian girl, discovering that she can answer "I don't know" when the World Wide Web asks her whether or not she's female, or yanking off Barbie's clothes to find that perfection means no nipples and no genitalia?
Of course, if you're looking for the truth behind Barbie doll's and the transgender issue, you'll have to read You Will Behave.
