Well who said dolls are meant for girls?...(yeah I know they kind of are)...But I've grown up with tons of gil cousin and they all love AG and they've kind of got me into liking them....

To be able to admit what you love and no be ashamed says something is special about you. Don't be afraid to be yourself-ever. [img]smile.gif[/img]

1. AG helps teach history and good wholesome values, especially through the historical dolls' book series

2. They are age-appropriate for young people.

3. The clothing and accessories are high quality and historically accurate.

4.The dolls, clothing, and accessories hold their value well; they are sturdy enough to pass on to the next generation of children, barring actual abuse.

5. In the case of Limited Edition dolls and outfits, as well as retired items, the value can actually increase dramatically. (If you sell your Lindsey doll on ebay, you will see this demonstrated, and HOW!)

If you ever get tired of your AG things, you can sell them for as much as (or more than) what you paid for them, or put them away for a few years--then either sell them or take them up again as a rediscovered hobby.

There just isn't anything bad about AG!!! Enjoy! [img]smile.gif[/img] [img]graemlins/rainbow.gif[/img]

P.S. This is the opinion of a 46-year-old mom of 3 sons

My little brother wanted to be like me and around me all the time. My favorite picture of him is at 4 years old when he is dragging my doll around the house by the arm. It was after he treated my toys this way that I convinced my Mom to get him his own dolls and stuffed animals. My brother just moved out of the house at 26, and I'd be willing to bet that his two favorite stuffed animal cats were packed in the box to go with him.

When I was a kid, my step-brother used to play dolls with me all the time.

I look at it this way- playing with dolls is about playing around with relationships, acting, directing plays, etc. What's so girly about that? Really, men also have relationships with other people, they like to act and be creative. I don't understand why doll play, which is primarily centered on these things, is considered a "girl" activity.

I think it's just great! I gotta tell you, I've had more guys my age (20s) tell me that they had always wanted to play with their sisters' dolls than you'd ever guess. I think what you need to know is that everyone likes different things. Too many people give up things they love because they think it's not socially acceptable or they don't have a lot of support with it. All of them eventually come to regret it. Play with your dolls! You like them, and you don't want to regret missing out. I really hope that if you ever need support you know we're all here to support you (and enable your AG addiction of course [img]wink.gif[/img] ).

Thanks for the support everyone! I'm just sooo addicted to AG!
