Beautiful Dolls

yes, they are beautiful, but I am afraid they remind me of glamourized barbie dolls and could have come straight from the air brushed pages of Vanity Fair and the like. I much prefer the Groovy Girl dolls from the Manhattan Toy company for my girls, because even though they are not real, they at least do not send pernicious images of an impossible ideal femininity and they do represent many cultures and ethnicities of the world.

Sorry Madonna. Not an attack on you, I just hate to see even more images of what we are all supposed to look like, but less than 5% of us actually do. I could never get these dolls for my two girls. How do you play with dolls like this, if not permanent "beauty shop"?

Wow, unbelievable how they truly "caught" the look of real people. Thanks for sharing Madonna. (I scrolled down and tried to figure out who each one was without seeing the name. I was surprised how many I guessed right. They did a great job!)
