Besides, this toy was named best doll for the year 2012. I cannot believe it! Society is making kids grow up too fast! When I was two, or three or four, I never thought about breastfeeding a doll; especially assuming it was my child. We are promoting the sexualization of girls all over the place, and I do not understand how parents don't notice this.
And really, what is the point of this doll? Is it teaching girls how to breastfeed at the age of 5?
This baby doll is just absurd. It is a doll that cries to suck on the nipples of little girls. Yeah, you read it well, it cries to suck on the NIPPLES of little girls, and it even makes noises such as "Yum Yum" after you are done breast-feeding it.
Some ads are classified wrong and sexualizing because they portray a girl dressed in sexy clothes or a girl using make up, but this advertisement goes beyond this. It takes a step further; better yet, 3--or 4-- steps further. One things is to teach girls that to be successful they need to look hot and be sexy (this is wrong), but it is even worse to teach young girls that in order to be accepted they need to be breastfeeding a child at an early age.
Really, I do not know what is happening to society. I often hear people say "Oh, look at today's youth! It is a lost generation!" But really,
Wow, this is pretty cool. I like your blog and I like how you write.
