Barbie’s “I Can Be A Computer Engineer” Book Is Almost Laughably Sexist

“It’ll go faster if Brian and I help,” offers Steven. *Slams head against desk*. Update : Mattel has apologized and pulled the book from Amazon.

They wrote:

The Barbie I Can Be A Computer Engineer book was published in 2010. Since that time we have reworked our Barbie books. The portrayal of Barbie in this specific story doesn't reflect the Brand's vision for what Barbie stands for. We believe girls should be empowered to understand that anything is possible and believe they live in a world without limits. We apologize that this book didn't reflect that belief. All Barbie titles moving forward will be written to inspire girl's imaginations and portray an empowered Barbie character.
