\huge\pink{ƛƝƧƜЄƦ}

The poem begins with the birth of a “girlchild” who is immediately given all the toys she will need to learn how to be a good mother and wife. She has a “GE stove” and a baby doll which requires diaper changes. The girl is immediately being trained in her future subservient role.

She enters puberty and the insults of other children start to wear away at her. They say that she has “a great big nose and fat legs.” These judgements stay with this young woman for the rest of her life.

The speaker makes sure to emphasize all of the beautiful qualities this woman possess, but neither she, nor her peers are able to see and appreciate them. All they can see are her supposed “faults.”

In the second half of Barbie Doll, worn down by the words of others, the woman cuts off her nose and legs as an offering to the world that has tormented her. She dies, and is buried with a reconstructed face and “turn-up nose.” In death, the speaker ironically states, she has found the happy ending all women desire.

I will give brainliest, if anyone can tell me the whole back story of annabel​
Arte-miy333 [17]

Answer:

The real-life Annabelle story began in 1970 when a 28-year-old nurse received the Raggedy Ann doll as a birthday gift from her mom. She put the rag doll on her bed and began to notice it changing positions. A leg would be crossed, or the doll would be lying on its side. According to the Warrens, a student nurse was given the doll in 1968. They say the doll behaved strangely, and that a psychic medium told the student that the doll was inhabited by the spirit of a deceased girl named "Annabelle".
