Excellent question.
@Mattel, I want to see Mormon Barbie (white skin, of course) and an Amish Barbie in her empowering bonnet, and little shaved head Hasidic Jew Barbie.
Why only a Muslim Barbie? This is discrimination against little girls from other religions.https://twitter.com/missylee1967/status/930482538270699520 …

Also, FYI, less than half of one percent of Americans wear hijab...so if it’s only about profit, that’s some pretty shitty marketing.

Yes I get that, but manufacturers must think they are going to make a profit. Having said that, maybe Muslim Barbie is the same doll, except with different attire? If so, this wouldn't cost too much to make after all. Yes virtue signalling.

I remember seeing an article about faceless dolls being sold to fundamentalist burqa-wearing sects! The dolls looked sinister. I feel sorry for those poor children who will be given such horrors to play with.

*And because the girls too are forced to wear the burqa.
