You can dress up virtual dolls that are put into situations like getting married, or first dates, first kiss, night with the girls and my favorite maternity dress up! That's right, you can dress up a pregnant doll that has the face of a bratz mixed with the body of barbie. And guess what! It's for young girls, that's right, its for our young impressionable young ladies. My little sister who is only 4 was playing this game, and I had to stop her. I couldn't allow her to play with a virtual doll that encouraged her to imagine scenarios that are way beyond her years. Now I'm not a prude, but good grief, what else are we going to do to brainwash our young girls. This is why I am so passionate about my documentary that I'm working on, it has to stop some where.
