Perhaps the "tell me anything and I'll believe it" facial expression of Barbi was a means to break down the "barrier to entry" between men and women. That is, if the woman is brainless, then there is no competition between male and female: the male is obviously the dominant one.
Male dominance has been perpetuated in our society, certainly, by many things. Perhaps the doll contributed to it in this and other subtle ways.
