A fat dollfie.

I am gonna hold you to that drink! BTW: I really appreciate your opinion and it is nice to have a civilized discussion with differing opinions on the subject. I always feel you can learn more from others point of views

 

It is nice having a civilized discussion, and it was very pleasant conversing with you. I can get very heated up in an argument (especially on subjects of health and medicine), and while I do admit that I did some generalized ranting earlier, I want to thank you for bringing out the best in me so that we could reconcile our arguments in a rational and intelligent way, lol. I'm a terrible debater, really. I get way too worked up.

I just made a pitcher of margaritas, lol. I'd pour you one, but I don't think my computer would appreciate having a beverage sloshed all over its screen!

 

I don't think I would want a fat bjd. I myself am fat. but it doesn't bother me. but I can change and become thinner, but if I ever decide that I want to do the same for my dollfie I cannot. besides I don't find fat esthetically pleasing, to put it polity.

 

I have actually not bought dolls because their shape was too skinny. I don't find the super slender look attractive at all, I love the rounder dolls, especially in girls. My only regret is that I can't get my doma doll Okja in a sd size

 

i dont think a fat doll would e very popular. and this is why the company dont make them.
if a doll is not attractive, would you buy it?

 

If you are looking for a chubby SD, check out Cecile the Scar Face. I don't have any pictures right now, but compared to other Volks boys, he's got a chubby tummy and bootay. He's got a special body sculpt for a Volks.

It's really sweet too, my standard Volks boys seem skinny in comparison. His round belly is so cute!

 

XDD I second that!!! haha. . .It's so true . . .there is something about him that is bigger than most Volks SD13s ^^;; him and his chubby bootie is so cute

 

I don't see myself ever getting below a 14 and I'm 5'5, but I don't consider myself "fat". shrug When I decided to stop buying into media crap and decided to like myself the way I am, I was able to lose weight.

 

It probably also has to do with the price of the resin and the weight distribution. Bobobie Dolls have huge breasts and they also have wider ankles which is what they need to support themselves. And the Poly Resin these are made of isn't cheap either. It would be possible but do to little demand and the high cost it would be difficult to market them and make a profit.

 

I don't know if anyone has said this one yet but Dollmore's Lusion dolls are a bit thick. Naturally they are larger dolls 80cm. But the legs and fingers and over all body gives off a attractive thicker body shape girl that is adorable.

 

I think it would be neat to see more dolls with different body types and that sort of thing. Since these dolls have so many different bodies you can often switch between the heads and everything it would seem like it would not be a big deal to make different body shapes, unlike other types of dolls where they are mass-produced and they all look identical.

 

Dollmore's Lusion dolls are modeled after girls in their early childhood. They're an accurate representation of girls who are 6-8 years old and have not yet lost their "baby fat." They're not meant to look like thicker older women. And calling them "attractive" is a little creepy... I would hate for my 6-year-old to be called "attractive" (should I ever decide to have children, that is.)

@ Toshirodragon: I don't know what you look like and therefore I can't be sure that these statements pertain to you, but the growing sentiment that overweight people should accept themselves or be accepted by others is worrying. There's a difference between "media crap" and "real health risks." Accepting yourself for who you are should not involve accepting the fact that you will suffer myriad health complications and an early death as compared to people in a healthy weight range.

 

Slightly OT, but it's not a set-in-stone fact that you will suffer "myriad health complications and an early death" by being fat. My husband and I have both had numerous fat (and we're talking definitely obese, not just a tad overweight) relatives who lived well into their 80s without any major fat-related illnesses such as diabetes or heart problems. You could make an argument that perhaps if they hadn't been fat they'd have lived to age 93 rather than 83, but it seems like hair splitting to me, especially since their quality of life was good - they traveled, had nice families and so on. I have also had skinny relatives who still developed heart trouble and other diseases. Bottom line is that genetics as well as lifestyle play a role in what you weigh and how you end up.

I accept that some people are always going to see fat as an unhealthy, "bad" thing as well as ugly in some way, and that's fine, but I'd still like the option of a fat dollfie as I don't think that way and probably there are others who don't have that prejudice also. I'm quite happy with the fat Bonbon and Coco dolls I got from Tinybear as I feel their bodies look realistic and break up the monotony of all the skinnies. More fat and chubby body options in different shapes (given that people are not all fat in the same places or in the same way) would be very welcome to me.

 

I'm happy to hear that your obese relatives lived a happy life without major health complications, and I'm sorry that your skinny relatives suffered from heart disease (which is the number one killer in the United States, across all genders, races and weight classes). But "knowing some people" is not enough to disprove medical fact. Obese people aren't always going to die early, of course. But they have a hugely elevated predisposition to life-threatening diseases like hypertension and diabetes. Bottom line -- being obese threatens your health.

 

I said my piece and related it to the dolls. Since I believe further discussion of "medical fact" on this thread would be way off topic to the subject of "a fat dollfie" and since you clearly have a view on this subject that differs greatly from mine in approach, attitude, and every other way (I tend to lean more towards both the "media crap" and to some extent "medical crap" and "legal crap" view of the spectrum), I have nothing further to add here. :

 

Thank you x3

I've stated my own opinion here a number of times but every time this thread is rehashed there are always a number of people who state 'well, most people colelct these dolls to be the ideal of beauty or a fantasy, and who would want to buy something that wasn't perfect?' and I can't explain how much this drives me up the wall. Just because you (general 'you') do not think something is beautiful, that's no reason to assume everyone else thinks that way.

I would love to see a fat (and I mean actually chubby, not just "thick" ) doll in something other than tiny size, especially a fat male doll, and I would indeed think that can be just as ideal and beautiful as a thinner one. I notice most people who agree to wanting a heavier looking doll only seem to refer to them as female dolls, so no tubbier male dolls? I too like making fantasy dolls, none of them relate to real life in the slightest, but maybe I'm in the minority here in thinking that I still like my fantasy characters to have diversity among them that includes body types, since many different types can be appealing.

 

It's scary to think that what I said could be interpreted as opinion. If you honestly believe that obesity does not create a predisposition to diabetes and hypertension, then... I don't know. I really don't know. It's like refusing to believe that the Earth revolves around the sun.

But this will be my last post in this thread, because I stated my on-topic opinion several posts back, and I have nothing left to say on this subject that strictly regards dolls.

 

Hey there, I wanted a chubby male doll too! Lol, but it's been a while since my last post. I'll settle for chubby but if there ever comes an SD boy body that's almost as wide as it is tall, beware because it'll be mine and then I'll consider my collection complete since one of the characters I have in mind is pretty heavy-set. I also wish I could find a "size 12" female body for Tanya...actually, about half of my dolls are a bit skinnier than I'd like them to be. Sigh.

I'm one of those people with dolls who all play in a sort of storyline, keep in mind. So it's just too perfect and weird to have characters in a storyline who are all "beautiful and skinny" to media's standards, to me at least.

 

Ummm I have a child... And attractive as in, yes they are attractive dolls and shape for being made to look pudgy. There are some dolls of a younger age type that are pudgy looking and are simply unattractive. Simply put.

I have type 1 diabetes diagnosed at 22 months old and am now 26yrs old. Yet I have a beautiful healthy child, on the insulin pump and have a hemoglobin a1c of a normal healthy person. My eyes and liver are great as well as my limbs and the rest of my body. And my endocrinologists says if they aren't damaged now they won't be in my future. I will live a long healthy life with my diabetes. So you may wana say potential life threatening diseases on that part. You might offend and upset a few people who might actually live with the disease. Research is important. One word you say can make a difference.

I couldn't agree more. I said my part on this.

 

I think Dollmore's Lusion dolls is big (1/2 scale I think) but she still not fat ><
