| headline | Dara and Sara - Iran's Islamic alternative to Ken and Barbie |
| description | Meet Dara and Sara, Iran's answer to Ken and Barbie. The Muslim dolls have been developed by a government agency to promote traditional values, with their modest clothing and pro-family backgrounds. They are widely seen as an effort to counter the American dolls and accessories that have flooded the Iranian market.
She said young girls who play with Barbie, a doll she sees as wanton, could grow into women who reject Iranian values.
"I think every Barbie doll is more harmful than an American missile," Ms Rahimi said. |
