Re: Love this!!
Lol. I like it. If you derive happiness from something, and it harms no one, don't let anyone stop you. If you spend all your time trying to please others, you'll end up miserable. Enjoy life! Live and let live, and don't let busy-bodies that are miserable bring ya down!

Re: Love this!!
So true! This hobby carries a lot of negativity & implication that we're "missing" something in our lives & trying to use dolls to fill that void. Not true! All the dolly friends that I have are normal, well adjusted, happy individuals. People criticize things they don't understand or that they're afraid of.MikeTheEngineer wrote:Lol. I like it.

Re: Love this!!
I love it too. Good find, Tracy!
I used to try to involve one of my younger nieces (9), she loved holding my dolls. But the other adults made fun of me... and seeing this my niece started to too. Calling Ezra creepy, poking him, pulling his fingers. Nope.

Amen. It is strange that most other hobbies are exempt from the connotation doll lovers get. I personally am of sound mind, fulfilled in life and family. That's my story and I am sticking to it.

Re: Love this!!
And SO WHAT even if they *ARE* using it to fill a void. If it makes them happy, and they are able to take care of themselves and not hurting anyone... people should just let them be who they are. ^_^ World would be a much better place if people would just live and let live. I understand the void that can exist without children to care for. Anyone that mocks a woman that can't (or doesn't) have kids because she has a doll instead should be ashamed.Tracy Lorraine wrote:So true!

I was showing my neighbors what I made (they are the type that would be really good at rooting hair with a little practice)... they all said it was creepy... but held it for *hours*... ~_~DollyBabeChris wrote:I love it too. Good find, Tracy!

Haha, "normal" is for people without character and personality. ^_^ Don't worry about being normal, just go live and be happy.judyismyname wrote:Describes me perfectly , I like being in this "perfectly normal" category

Re: Love this!!
I love it, too. There's another forum I'm part of (non dolly related) and reborns got brought up in a thread...Sometimes I feel so immature but I just love dolls and I try to remind myself that there's nothing wrong with it. I love the artistry of it...and baby clothes
