Okay , we think Sports Illustrated is losing the plot. With your main demographic being young men, why on earth would you put a little girl’s play doll on the cover of the magazine? They may have been under criticism for objectifying women previously, but now they are objectifying an object.
Barbie herself has been critiqued about her head being wider than her waistline. With the issue’s slogan being ‘Unapologetic’, Sports Illustrated are basically telling all the critics that they have no qualms with showing off the near unobtainable female bodies in swimsuits of real and plastic women.
