Being me

Within the world of me there's a place for things to play with from the traditional action centred toy to dolls.

Dolls! I hear you cry. Whaddymean Chris???

There is nothing wrong with me or any boy with dolls of itself at all because dolls are a representation of people in wax, cloth or plastic that we can use for imaginary play exploring situations, feelings or even looks.

Dolls don't have to be just for girls it's simply there have few dolls made specifically for boys that you can dress up or get accessories for so you can engage in boyish play with them excluding military dolls "action figures" in marketing speak such as G.I Joe or Action Man which I enjoyed playing with a lot with all the bits and bobs that went with it including new uniforms to dress them in.

A kind of a doll that isn't girlish or heavens above sissy would be a boy with a variety of different outfits such as school uniform, scout uniform, page boy, soccer strip or mountaineering with things like imitation desks, soccer pitches, cars and so on.

Something you could play exploring the roles of boys with, making adventures that are centred on the lives of 'real boys' in a masculine way.

One day we'll have boys toys that include this.
