Anyone ever went to their babysitters house who your mom went to church with and have them iron the boobs off of your generic barbie doll? Well, I have. Let me tell you it is quite the interesting experience. I know many people have had worse off childhoods and I'm not saying mine was bad, if anything it makes for some great, crazy stories now. So yes there I was, I don't remember how young I was but probably under 10. I got this new generic barbie doll (parents wouldn't spend real barbie money-bless their frugal ways) and of course the doll had the "barbie-like boobs" and the babysitter thought that was inappropriate for a little girl to have. Why? You tell me... Maybe I would grow up to be a lesbian? (That didn't happen) Maybe I would grow up to really want big boobs? (I think most girls do) Maybe I would show my toy doll boobs to my brothers? (They weren't interested in doll boobs) Maybe I would fondle the doll? (This is about the craziest reason I could think of and NO it didn't happen!) So yes, every time we are shopping in Target or Walmart or any other place that sells dolls I cannot help but to think of this experience I had. This lady took my doll into her room, ironed down the boobs so the poor thing was as flat chested as I was at that point, then she took some masking tape and put tape around them. Is this how women-to-man transsexuals feel after they have the surgery? Just wonderin...
I'd say I turned out fairly OK! :)
Disclaimer here: I have no problem with transsexuals and feel people should do whatever makes them happy! ;)
Maybe they were afraid of this happening:
