Her wardrobe is still fabulous, but these days she's getting stuff done, rather than just swanning around in her hot pink car. It seems, however, that Fisher-Price didn't get the memo. The company - which is one of America's biggest toy makers - has received complaints over its "girl" version of a popular toy, a "mum" figure who drives around in her pink car shouting: "Time for yoga and a smoothie!" “You can find a female Little People firefighter, dentist, mail carrier, farmer." So we're not allowed to portray suburban women at all now? Or any depiction of women that isn't them in some amazing achievement? |

| When did it become "journalism" to write about what random people bitch about on Facebook? |

| She's offended because instead of yoga it was selling out America through treasonous deals. |
| She lost the opportunity to start her own line of toys using her own complaints as a marketing manipulation to gain proffits. I was actually expecting a Christian mad that it would talk of yoga since some consider it satanic. |
| Do Christians really think yoga is satanic? |
| Oh, I guess the double-chinned mother is offended, because if she did Yoga, she would be in better shape. |

Thrashinuva said: Do Christians really think yoga is satanic? Yoga and meditation. Yeah some do. One of my friends her mom wont let her meditate. It has to do with them having origins in Hinduism and some forms of it are forms of worship. It is tied in with the view that any religion that isnt Christian is Satanic and anything that they dont understand that betters a person is satanic magic. |
| She probably viewed herself in the doll |

Thrashinuva said: Do Christians really think yoga is satanic? Ex-Christian here... And YES...some Christians think Yoga is satanic. Then again....some christians think Pokemon is satanic too, so yeah. |
| Trigglypuffs be huffing and puffing again |

| Saw this on Twitter. She's only offended because she never really accomplished anything before having kids. |
| Its like the bullshit I called right from the start: "Men can be feminists" is now "Men can be allies" "Children should be able to pick any toys" is now "Children better fucking not pick toys which align with their sex" "Women don't have to be housewives" is now "Women better not be housewives at all!" |
