Educating Bimbos of Tomorrow

                            

The new internet game, Miss Bimbo (popular with girls ages 6 - 16 in England and France) is taking the heat from a communications watchdog as it is under the watchful eyes of parents, "over claims that it has breached rules about targeting children with premium rate phone lines."
 
TimesOnLine goes on to explain, "PhonepayPlus is examining claims that the Miss Bimbo game exploits children’s naivety and contains content that parents would feel unsuitable for children."

From the Guardian, "The aim of the Miss Bimbo beauty contest game, which was launched in Britain last month, is to become the "hottest, coolest, most famous bimbo in the whole world", and contestants who compete against each other are told to "stop at nothing", even "meds or plastic surgery", to ensure their dolls win.

Children are given a naked virtual character to look after. They compete against other players to earn "bimbo" dollars so they can dress her in sexy outfits and take her clubbing. They are given missions, including securing plastic surgery at the game's clinic to give their dolls bigger breasts, and they have to keep her at her target weight with diet pills.

No problem, my kids don't have time to fool around with garbage like that - they are outside playing.
