What are the biggest benefits of doll ownership for you?

Hey everyone! This is my second post on this forum, and before anything I'd like to thank everyone for the fantastic responses to the first!

Re: What do you think creates the taboo about dolls?

Sorry for the late responses everyone! I'm doing some summer film work and it got pretty crazy. Dolls help a lot of people. They've been around for longer than anyone can agree.

Whenever organized society, government, or religion disapproves of something you have to ask yourself one question. What or whom does it threaten. What is the perceived threat? With dolls, there are many things that people feel threatened by. Women.. I don't think I could say it any better than Kru...

Re: What do you think creates the taboo about dolls?

BRAVO! Very good and insightful question! BTW - Thank you for wanting to do this! I was getting my Anthropology degree over 20 years ago and did most of my research on "tattoos." Believe me, it was very taboo back then and now... Just look around. If I was in school now I KNOW I would do ...

Wow, so many fantastic responses! What a great community :). I'm going to respond to everyone! I'm not sure if forum etiquette says I should post it all as one response or as individual replies, so veterans please let me know! Or perhaps PM's might be better? There are probably lots of reasons for t...

Re: What do you think creates the taboo about dolls?

I think it's definitely the sex part. Even though everyone and their mother watches porn, very few will openly admit it... society is weird like that. People are quick to marginalise anything involving sex since it's taboo for some reason. That's definitely true. It's weird how we are okay with gra...
