AND POOR KEN, THE LAST I HEARD HE'D BEEN WHIPPED, SODOMIZED AND DOG BITTEN AT ABU GHRAIB

LONDON - Barbie, beware. The iconic plastic doll is often mutilated at the hands of young girls, according to research published Monday by British academics.

"The girls we spoke to see Barbie torture as a legitimate play activity, and see the torture as a 'cool' activity," said Agnes Nairn, one of the University of Bath researchers.

"The types of mutilation are varied and creative, and range from removing the hair to decapitation, burning, breaking and even microwaving."
