I'm sure hearing guys say stuff like this all the time makes the insecure women feel even better about themselves too. ;)

I get what you're saying -- people who need constant reaffirmation are annoying -- but basically, it is really tough to be a woman because not only are we judged primarily on our looks, but we're judged again if we show that we're insecure about any of the things that we perceive to be wrong with us.



As for Bratz, try http://www.bratzpack.com

Personally I think "hoochie mama Barbies" is too nice of a description . . . has anybody seen Love Actually, where the mom says, "Okay, should we give her the doll that looks like a dominatrix or the one that looks like the transvestite?" That's what I think of when I think of Bratz.

i like the Bratz dolls... unlike Barbies they are not busty,small waisted,long legged freaks... and the creator of the Bratz dolls made them so that the blonde one would not be the "star" like how Barbie is, and he tried to give them all sorts of hair colors and complexions so that little girls would not feel like there was only one ideal to look up to... but their clothes are a little out there :)... my little sister got all things Bratz for Christmas, and I must say they are quite fun :p

Off topic, but how do you even play with dolls? Like what can you do with them but pose them?

Men have action figures (dolls) but we usually wage war with them and rough them up.

I can't imagine posing them and I guess just supplying dialogue.

Shall I tell you why, James? Because us girls have a little something called imagination and creativity! ;) xxx

I love how so many different topics can crop up in one thread! Who would have thought we would be talking about action figures?!?! hehe ;)

Those Bratz dolls freak me out. They look like E.T. with hair and lipstick, and they seem to have misplaced their noses.

i shouldnt keep this bratz thing going, but yeah when i played with my sister it was pretty much just dressing them up

I was more interested in designing new clothes and furnishings for my Barbies than actually staging scenes and dialogue with them. Most of the time I would get them dressed up and set up just so and then they would either sit or sleep.

Bratz look a little shady to me, like they're trying too hard.

Kind of waiting for one of the guys to start a "Bratz Doll Chapter" thread now!

Stop it James, just stop it!;)
