1. It has come to the attention of forum staff that Dollshe Craft has ceased communications with dealers and customers, has failed to provide promised refunds for the excessive waits, and now has wait times surpassing 5 years in some cases. Forum staff are also concerned as there are claims being put forth that Dollshe plans to close down their doll making company. Due to the instability of the company, the lack of communication, the lack of promised refunds, and the wait times now surpassing 5 years, we strongly urge members to research the current state of this company very carefully and thoroughly before deciding to place an order. For more information please see the Dollshe waiting room. Do not assume this cannot happen to you or that your order will be different.

    1. I'm a male who prefers the boys if they're masculine enough. There are so many female dolls and they're gorgeous but I see the boys dolls as more challenging to customize ( in some part due to the extreme lack of masculine wigs, clothes, etc. And have you tried to sew pants?) and generally more exciting.
       
    2. I'm a female and I prefer the boys, at the moment I'm only planning on getting boys. Maybe one day I'll get a girl because there's a lot of cute stuff for them. but I think she'd be the only I'd get... (and there's no sculpt that interest me yet...)
       
    3. I'm female, and I have no preference (even though I want a boy doll in the future). Girls seem to be a lot more desired in the community (I've only had girls)... and they're easier to shop for.
       
    4. I'm female and I have a definite preference for boys, although I do have a few girls in my resin crew. For some reason, I've always had a preference for boy dolls outside the BJD hobby as well, and my boy dolls of other genres outnumber my girl dolls. For BJD, there aren't that many girl sculpts I find attractive enough to want. Many of them just seem too cutesy and many of them seem to look more or less the same to me. I just find boy sculpts a lot more interesting and varied.
       
    5. I am a girl and I find myself drawn to girl dolls as well. There are a few boy dolls I admire but I am much more picky about my boy sculpts.
       
    6. I recently just ordered my first doll, and she's a girl, but I'm aiming to have an equal amount of both sexes in the end. After that, I'll probably end up with more girls anyway...! It's the same with my artwork, I end up drawing quite feminine girls. I guess I just really like feminine things.
       
    7. For me, I am female and really love feminine dolls. I have an equal amount of both, but generally I don't like masculine-looking dolls, I like to put female heads on male bodies or similar situations. When it comes to the bodies, I'm about half and half. ^^ I have a few dapper gents, some scene boys, and some bad boys, but largely cutesy faces. I like to have a balance in my collection. C:
       
    8. I'm female and while I do want equal amounts of both female and male dolls, I tend to fall in love with female dolls. I have a hard time finding male dolls I like. I keep telling myself I should slow down getting girls and start getting more boys but whenever I look at dolls online I always end up looking at girls, lol, because they are so pretty and can wear adorable frilly dresses. :) In fact, the next doll I want is also female.
       
    9. I'm female and prefer female dolls. That doesn't mean I don't have boys, I just find female dolls easier to work with ^^
       
    10. I'm a boy and I don't really have preference... I currently have more girl dolls than boys (well... if you count my floating head, then i guess i have equal amounts boys and girls! but i'm about to have another girl so it'll be uneven again) but I certainly don't have any conscious preference.

      I do feel like girls area little easier to work with though because it seems as if there's more of a variety of feminine clothes, shoes, and wigs available than masculine.
       
    11. I'm female and want to own equal amounts of boys and girls. My girls currently outnumber my boys 20-7 though! It's just much harder for me to find male sculpts I like, because I'm not a fan of either ultra-feminine guys OR hyper-masculine guys. I like gentle-faced, boyish guys, and they seem a bit rarer. I'm hoping that more will be released so eventually my collection can be more balanced :)
       
    12. I'm female and I prefer males only coz most of my characters are boys.
       
    13. I'm female and I always go for girls ^^. I'm just not really into male BJD's. I love how the female body looks and I love boobs, so it's only natural for me to buy girls xD. I also feel like there's more variety in clothes for girls. I collect anime figures and all the figures I own are female too.
       
    14. I seem to have a preference for boy dolls, but that is because I haven't found a girl doll that has both the face I'm looking for and a body that I like that matches this face.

      For instance, I really love Bibiane and Asa from Iplehouse, but they are too big for me. Since I would love to have both of them in Realskin, the chances of getting a perfect hybrid are pretty slim.

      There are a few male heads I want to turn into a girl, 'cause I like a girl with attitude, but this will have to wait until I my financial situation is well enough to justify getting a doll. Hehe, that might take a few years.
       
    15. I'm female and I prefer boy dolls. Not too sure why, I've always liked male characters and the male sculpts, which is funny because I'm dating a girl. I can't find a girl that I really want either.
       
    16. I am a female. At the moment I do own more males than females and most of my characters are males. That being said, I tend to prefer males. However, I still like female dolls just as much as male dolls. I just don't see a place for them in my doll family yet.
       
    17. I'm female and so far have only female dolls, but hope to have near even numbers of males and females in the future.
       
    18. I am female and voted that I preferred girl dolls. It is a bit more complicated than that. I usually prefer to have a doll with a girl body though the male faces with bigger lips attract me more. I am thinking buying an Iplehouse next as the girls have bigger mouths.
       
    19. I'm Male and only have male BJD's mainly because in the past I have only had female dolls, but other reasons are I don't like the joints on the female legs at the knee and the kankles!
      Also although they have extensive beautiful wardrobes BUT, 99% of the shoes look to clunky and heavy. If the shoes were more delicate then maybe I might venture in to some Iple girls!
       
    20. I'm female and I tend to lean towards getting male bjds. I just find male dolls a bit simpler to dress in terms of options. Though for some reason, there's a certain company where I just want to buy all the dolls regardless of gender. xP
