Don’t want to give you baby girl some plastic doll with a wack sense of what women look like? Well, check out DYKEdolls, an alternative action figure that positively portrays ladies and the lesbian lifestyle. Just look at the adorable family of Kelly, Christine and baby Soo! Or how about a total Betty in a basketball uniform? There’s even a gayelle Cali skater chick! Now these are gals we’d all like to play with…regardless of sexual orientation.

Uh, this just seems weird to me. I can get behind the idea of portraying more realistic dolls with more realistic bodies, beauty expectations, etc. But why label them as specifically lesbian? Why can’t *any* doll be a lesbian? And why can’t a “straight” doll have a realistic body?
