There is always so much controversy over the Bratz dolls. My favorite part of the drama is when mothers lean over and whisper to each other, out of their child's hearing of course, “Would you ever buy those Bratz games?”
Now, not only is the question unfair, it’s a bit misleading. Phrasing a question like that tells us all you want a “No, never!” in response, but are the Bratz games so unbearable that they deserve malicious whispers? Absolutely not.
The Bratz games get a lot of hype for being a bit alluring for fashion dolls. The dolls have doe-shaped eyes and tiny pouty mouths. The dolls dress provocatively at times and look a bit more realistic than some parents are comfortable with. They might be a bit too urban and trendy for some of us, but that doesn’t make the dolls bad by their nature. Bratz games are just that – games!
Nobody complains that the Ken doll looks a bit too anatomically correct under those molded underpants. But maybe they do and nobody cared. Those whispering about Bratz could take a lesson from that.
