From kicking off her high heels in exchange for practical flats to flaunting new proportions that are supposed to be closer to a real woman's figure, Barbie has been undergoing changes admist years of criticism due to giving girls unrealistic and sexist expectations. Now, a new ad for Mattel's Barbie gets everything right by giving young girls a chance to live our their imagined futures as a CEO, a veterinarian, a museum curator, and even a future soccer coach.
Labelled “Imagine the Possibilities,” the ad gives young girls more to look forward to in their futures than just looking prim and proper and styling hair and makeup. Barbie herself is not even shown until the final seconds of the video.
