I don't see anything contemptuous about these dolls. But, as I've stated above, I do not look at these dolls as representative of an entire culture. Are there only certain dolls in this line that you feel this way about, or is it the entire line? Can you give me an example of how these dolls are representative of big business holding Americans and their children in utter contempt? Thanks for expressing your opinion here.RoxanneRoxannehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01079345476722203250noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4151470353346020825.post-89893991447950286712014-12-15T07:46:40.662-06:002014-12-15T07:46:40.662-06:00

They hold Americans and their children in utter contempt, and promote images like these in order to ensure the demise of America's youth.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4151470353346020825.post-54723428612109675432012-07-05T20:25:48.168-05:002012-07-05T20:25:48.168-05:00Hi Mary, thank you for sharing your opinion. I don...Hi Mary, thank you for sharing your opinion. I don't think of these dolls as representatives of Black culture as a whole, and I don't find them offensive. In fact, I appreciate the diversity of these dolls. If you look at the photo of my other teen dolls, what do they all have in common? They are all thin/skinny. I wasn't skinny as a teen, and a lot of teens that I know are not skinny, so why not have a doll that represents that? And I like the fact that Benjamin has real cornrows. And if these dolls are homeless, then they are some of the nicest dressed and well-groomed homeless people that I've ever seen. I do think that these dolls are pretty cool, and if I could find Anthoney and Tara, I'd purchase them as well.RoxanneRoxannehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01079345476722203250noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4151470353346020825.post-73902092488432297462012-07-04T16:20:30.480-05:002012-07-04T16:20:30.480-05:00dear people um i am 10 and my name is mary these d...dear people um i am 10 and my name is mary these dolls are very affensive to BLACK culture have u seen the back grounds of the boxes thier in the HOOD also there is one white doll they made and it looked like she was in hollywood somewere these dolls arent very sanitery they are GETTO i wouldnt want it DID U GUYS EVAN SEE THE BLACK DOLL HER BACK GROUND IN THE BOX WAS BY THE trash cans she was freakin homless ARER U KIDING ME i found the whole doll collection in factory 2-u in california and the manager didnt aprove of the dolls so i sugust u stop saying these dolls are cool cus its petty afensive<br /> thank you -maryAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4151470353346020825.post-90754110531511115682012-04-02T22:29:51.419-05:002012-04-02T22:29:51.419-05:00Here's the Pinterest link, Roxanne!
