Barbie's delicate features and impossible dimensions have long been accused of screwing with the body image of young women. Apparently Ken -- Barbie's hunk of plastic, is having the same effect on some young men.
Sometimes, it’s outside forces like magazines or the media that give young women a distorted idea of beauty. And sometimes, it starts at home.
Dinora Rodriguez, from Los Angeles, California has gone public with her failed boob job to warn other women about the dangers of using an unqualified plastic surgeon.
Sarah Burge, a 50-year-old British party planner and erotic novelist, has gained notoriety for spending close to $1 million on plastic surgery in an attempt to make herself into a human Barbie.
