The Barbie maker, Mattel, is coming under growing pressure to mass-produce a bald Barbie doll for girls who suffer from hair loss, Digital Journal reports. Last year, Mattel created a one-of-a-kind bald Barbie doll for a 4-year-old suffering from cancer who lost her hair during chemotherapy(化疗)treatment, according to CBS New York. Now, some want Mattel to make bald Barbies available to all their customers. So far, a Facebook campaign has already generated more than 11 000 calling for a bald Barbie doll which they say will help boost the self-esteem in women and children experiencing hair loss from cancer treatment, pulling one’s hair out and other diseases that cause the immune system to attack hair follicles(毛囊). On their Facebook page, campaign organizers wrote the following explanation of their goals and the reasons behind the movement, "We would like to see a Beautiful and Bald Barbie made to help young girls who suffer from hair loss due to cancer treatment and young girls who are having trouble coping with their mother’s hair loss from chemotherapy. Many children have some difficulty accepting their mother, sister, aunt, grandparent or friends going from a long-haired to a bald." According to the Amarillo Globe-News Company, the movement is also asking Mattel to create headscarves and hats for the bald dolls. Tracey Kidd, whose daughter is suffering from cancer, told the Sunday Mail that she agreed with the campaign. Still, not everyone agrees with the idea of a mass-produced bald Barbie. One Chicago blogger argues that focusing on the things like toys fails to address the real needs of cancer sufferers.
