What? You still think that Barbie is sending bad messages to young girls? Compared to Mattel's new Monster High doll, Barbie looks like a dowdy librarian:
Clawdeen Wolf comes complete with a thigh-skimming skirt, sky high boots and heavy makeup, and spends her days “waxing, plucking and shaving.”
“My hair is worthy of a shampoo commercial, and that’s just what grows on my legs. Plucking and shaving is definitely a full-time job but that’s a small price to pay for being scarily fabulous,” reads the character description of the teen werewolf doll, who also lists her favorite hobby as “flirting with boys.”
But the most frightful thing about Clawdeen, experts say, is the shocking impact she could have on girls aged 6 and up -- the very demographic Mattel is targeting.

I remember the disappointment that Barbie brought, and the ridiculousness of Bratz, and with Monster High's message of taking pride in what makes you an individual I can safely say it is the best of the three doll lines.
