How many are single women who can’t have another child, or wont get married to a man?

M. Night Shyamalan did a movie called “Servant” (on Apple TV, I think) where Dorothy (Lauren Ambrose) and Sean Turner (Toby Kebbell)’s son dies at thirteen weeks old, they “adopt” a lifelike doll and the movie tells the creepy story of Dorothy going back to work after maternity leave, and hiring Leanne (Nell Tiger Lee), a religious girl of mysterious origin, to care for their surrogate son.

I watched about 15 minutes, and said “Nope.” Not watching anymore. Too weird.

As with the transtesticles, I refuse to participate in the mental illness of other.

Any woman who does this is admitting a deep desire to be a mother.

Don’t these ladies normally just adopt cats?

I can’t opine on this because I have no idea what it is like to lose a newborn.

Tik Tok has videos of mothers holding these dolls because they lost a newborn.

But to put it in a different context my mother lost a child that she had held as a newborn and raised for many years. If someone had offered her a lifesize dummy version I think she might have flipped out.

Seems to me that it has potential to make things a lot worse but ..whatever

Soon Planned Parenthood will be offering such dolls after the abortion for a hefty price.

While walking around Helen, Georgia, one day a couple years ago, we walked past a couple pushing a stroller with a doll in it. Something you don’t quickly forget.

Women with doll collections is not new. It’s been going on forever. Just another outlet for frustated maternal impulses.

It’s also an outlet for creative sewing and clothesmaking.

Don’t knock it. They come in handy when you put them in the passenger baby high seat while you’re breaking speed records in the HOV lane

I wouldn’t make fun of someone who finds this helps them cope with a loss. And I remember loving dolls as a child and a newborn doll would have been a great addition to my collection, which is still in the attic. If you’re into dressing them up, it’s certainly easier on the family dog and cat if you’re dressing up a doll instead.

Dollmaking is an art, as I learned from a best friend’s mother. I used to teach my friends to make music videos of their lives.

right up there with the furries and adults dressing like and acting like babies.

Euthanasia seems appropriate since these morons have reached the end of the functioning brain.

Kind of like men who never give up the toys of their youth, IMO.

“You see a doll, I see a baby that I never got to hold,”

Crazy cat lady. Run away.
