What Message Do Hyper Sexualized Dolls Send Our Girls?
Have you seen these dolls? I appreciate the message this article offers young girls…I like that it invites little girls to play with dolls that are not hyper sexualized – dolls they can relate to and perhaps have a sense that – “It’s okay to be me…without all the extras.” I posted this on Uniquely Savvy’s FB and a hair stylist had this comment: “Being in the business of helping people look better and feel better, I hear on a daily basis the comparison that women make between themselves and airbrushed photos.
