Hey, I saw this one..

Hey, I saw this O'Reilly factor segment on the Spanish Breast Feeding Doll and I don't remember any "Rage" or any talk about the doll "Inciting Pedophelia". I did hear them say that perhaps six year old girls should not be thinking about breast feeding and maybe they should be little girls first. Besides, I thought it was sexist to train all little girls to be mothers?

But I'm sure El Pais would never mislead their readers about a Fox news report though... Right?

Yeah! There is a doll called "baby alive", and it's also "trained" little girls to be mothers. And the doll can even make a voice and call "mommy"..I disagree about this, and I think parents should focus on studying or math maybe..instead of useless toys..

I'm not so sure I would go that far Atikah. Toys are not useless and dolls seem fine to me. I doubt that even this breast feeding toy causes any harm, the point was the El Pais article misrepresenting what O'Reilly said. There wasn't any "rage" or talk of pedophelia.

I guess it's ok to
Play with dolls however the breast feeding part is a bit too much for young girls. Why should try only be playing with dolls ...so stereotyping. I remember reading in the news that In Sweden they have opened a kindergarten in which guys done have to play with cars and girls with dolls. It has to be equal. I believe it's called equalia. Nice blog btw.
