this is sooooo rasis i dont c any white dolls
Seriously, you can’t expect to have your comment approved if you leave a name like fkdlfj and can’t even use proper punctuation and correct spelling.
This was left as a comment in the post Sneak Peek – SiS Stylin’ Hair Dolls (090731).
LOTR Cave Troll*
The stupidity of that short comments says all there needs to say, I don’t even need to add anything… I’d just wanted a reason to post a picture of a troll here 
Although I feel like I need to emphasise a few things. Firstly PoC can NOT be racist, racism is prejudice + power… PoC do not have the power required in the equation of racism although many seem to have no problems waving their unhealthy prejudices around but that is not the current issue. Secondly, white dolls are the most common type of doll released and sold – Barbie Fashionistas anyone? To make such a statement reeks of both extreme ignorance and privilege.

The blog title is “Dolls of Color” – d’oh, what did the person expect?
Congratulations on your first troll though!

You tell them Therese, I think you, me and D7ana and a few others talk about many multicultrual dolls that are out there! We are also helping each ohter found new girls to play with!
I started my blog because no one was talking enough about the black dolls out there! I still talk about many other dolls even white dolls because I love all dolls. But, my main focus will always be about the black dolls!
Like D7ana the blog is call ” Dolls of Color! HELLLO!!
This person is so sad because they had to use a fake name!

Some people just can’t bear to have the focus taken off them just for a short while so someone else can have their turn telling their own story.
