I just don't get this...
...


Do these bother anyone else? I found the Bratz line of dolls fairly annoying to begin with. These Baby Bratz are beyond the pale. I realize I might be betraying myself as being way out of touch, but damn people! "Babies" wearing leather, exposed midriffs, painted toenails, heavy face makeup and sporting bling, does this not raise any alarms? These tarted up dolls are being sold to our daughters. I guess I shouldn't be so puzzled why people sexualize young children; here sexualized "babies" are being mass marketed and the target audience is children...who will want to dress like them and look like them. I mean seriously! Is this an evil plot by some pedophile in corporate drag? Damn! I'm getting the vapors high on this horse.
