Cultural imperialism?

So, Iran is upset about imported Barbie dolls. Apparently it's upsetting their careful campaign to oppress women!

Here's what I don't understand. I don't like forcing American values and whatnot on anyone else, but if people want something, they're going to get it. If Iranians didn't want Barbie, they wouldn't smuggle them in!

Just remember: Barbie spreads democracy more effectively than George Bush does!
