Think Bratz were bad? Meet Miss Bimbo

Categories: Kids 5-7, Kids 8-11, Teens & tweens, That's Entertainment

Remember the good old days when Barbie was considered dangerous for little girls because she had an impossibly small waist and thought that math was hard? I WANT THOSE DAYS BACK.

The latest assault on young females is Miss Bimbo, a computer game of that appears to be a cross between WebKinz and Paris Hilton's real life.

The goals of the Miss Bimbo game are to make your bimbo the "hottest, coolest, most famous bimbo ever" according to the website. Hints on how to do this (directly from the website) include:

  • Find your own cool place to live.
  • Find a fun job to pay for your needs and all the clothes a Bimbo could possibly want.
  • Shop for the latest fashions and become the trendsetting bimbo in town!
  • Become a socialite and skyrocket to the top of fame and popularity.
  • Date that famous hottie you've had your eye on and show the Bimbo world the social starlet you are !
  • Even resort to meds or plastic surgery. Stop at nothing to become the reigning bimbo !
  • Tackle your 104 tasks as quick as possible to become the rising star bimbo!!

A British version of the game already has 200,000 registered members, most who are girls between the ages of 7 and 17 and parents are not fans. One father of a nine and fourteen-year-old was horrified when he saw what his daughters were doing on the site. "I noticed them looking at possible breast operations and face lifts at the game's plastic surgery clinic. It is irresponsible of the site's creators to be leading young girls astray. They are easily influenced at that age as to what is cool and these are not things they should be encouraged to aspire to before they are old enough to be making up their own minds."

However, game creator Nicholas Jacquart thinks Miss Bimbo is actually a teaching tool, saying, "The game is structured in such a way that it simply mirrors real life in a tongue-in-cheek way. It is not a bad influence for young children. They learn to take care of their bimbos. The missions and goals for the bimbos are morally sound and teach children about the real world. If they eat too much chocolate in the game, it is bad for their bimbos' bodies and their happiness levels compared to if they eat fruit and vegetables, which reinforces positive healthy eating messages. "

Aren't we dealig with enough bimbos in real life on a daily basis already?!
