  No way would this product cross the threshold of my home. The company thatproduces this must be called "InsecuritiesRus!"

  As a tomboy, I find this pretty funny. But I sure wouldn't give it to my daughter to play. But, I also banned Barbie too.

  In many ways I agree with all four previous comments. This 'game' should not be allowed in anyone's home if they care for their daughter's well-being. Based on the blog, this is clearly a male-created toy to turn girls into the descriptively-named Bimbo. Sure, it may be a tongue-in-cheek satire, but the girls who play this so-called game don't necessarily understand satire. As described, what we'll end up with are girls who grow up into sexual playthings for the men they meet.

  It is up to the parent to pay attention to what games their children play. Don't leave it to legislation or software; these can be circumvented much too easily. Talk to your daughter. Find out, if you can, what interests them and why. Be a true parent and try to show them why games like these are bad for them. Otherwise all the advances women have made over the last century will be reversed because your daughters will fall into that deadly stereotype.

  I just went to check this site out, and all registrants must be 18 years of age or older. As disturbing as this is, at least we know they're looking out for young girls.

  This site is meant as a spoof. Besides you're reporting on a web site and didn't log into? Soooo, where is your information from? Word of mouth? I'm sure it's all true, but you should at least perfom due diligence before you go flaming.

  Checked out the actual site and found the following message

  "Dear Players,

  Due to unforseen worldwide interest in Miss Bimbo we have had difficulty in maintaining our game in the manner players have become accustomed. We are sorry for this inconvenience and can assure you that our game will be up and running as soon as possible.

  As a result of this rather surprising media attention we have decided to remove the option of purchasing diet pills from the game. We apologise to any players whom this may inconvenience but we feel in light of this weeks proceedings it is the correct action to take.

  We would also like to sincerely apologise to our players for the media comparison of Miss Bimbo and Paris Hilton. We feel that this does a dis-service to the players whom send their bimbos to university, tea parties or chess tournaments.

  At this time we would also like to remind players that the Miss Bimbo team assume no responsibility or liability for any fashion faux pas, hair style disasters or boob jobs incurred in real life as as a result of playing the Miss Bimbo game.

  The Miss Bimbo Team."

  Ha!
