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.

Was your first doll a boy or girl?

Jun 17, 2014

    1. boy and all my dolls are boys XD
       
    2. All my dolls so far have been boys. I guess I'm more invested in a lot of the male characters in my stories and play, though certain female dolls are absolutely striking in ways that are rare for me with males. So who knows! Personal preferences are weird :)
       
    3. Boy, because I am not interested in girl.
       
    4. A boy, because I have trouble drawing male bodies, so I got a boy to help me in the job!
      *also, they have some kind of charm that end up making me have a preference for them, I don't know why*
       
    5. My first doll was a boy. I've found that I'm mostly drawn to boy dolls because, like... western boy dolls have always been so underwhelming so it's nice to have a large variety of really beautiful male dolls.

      Nothing against the ladies, I just think there's a certain novelty to collecting boy dolls.
       
    6. Most of the dolls I've owned/dolls on my wishlist are girls but I do hope to own a boy one day!
       
    7. I love boys, actually, all my bjd are boy, even I got more than 50 of them... However, i do love girls when it comes to mdd and dd. I still have boy version in those collections, even Volks does not have a boy body for it.
       
    8. My first doll was male, and all my humanoid dolls so far are (at least anatomically) male. I guess it has something to do with my aesthetics/the kind of characters I tend to create, though I hope the trend toward more diverse body shapes continues to grow (for all genders) so that everyone can get dolls that suit them/fit their characters.
       
    9. My first one was a boy and most of them are boys. I got three MSD girls but I got them because I can dress them as boys if I really wanted to haha.
       
    10. amusingly I mainly have interest in male dolls, but thanks to my sister my first doll was a female doll of her choosing to help me get into the hobby. I'm still looking for the right male doll to purchase. A lot of the ones I've seen that I want are either no longer being made or haven't been put up second hand. So for now just waiting for new releases to see what comes up! There are some that currently are available that interest me, but they aren't exactly what I want.
       
    11. I originally bought a girl doll! I found girl dolls very approachable and liked all the cute outfit options. I currently have two girl dolls but I really want to add boys to my collection (I actually have my first boy on layaway now!) I think I lean more towards female dolls but I def want to have all kinds \o/
       
    12. My first doll was a boy. I tend to like the male dolls better, but I would like to have a female doll one day.
       
    13. my first was a boy! i prefer boys but tbh girls tend to be prettier in my opinion .... also i have no qualms about getting him a dress lol. all of the dolls i'd want to buy now are boys too--but i do have a pukifee who i regard as a girl, because i got her secondhand and the former owner had her as a girl too.
       
    14. My first doll was a girl. I was interested in the bjd hobby by my friend.
       
    15. My first was a boy doll. I gravitate to male things anyway, like pets, as well. I have two girl dolls now, but they’re both a bit unusual. I still do more with the boys. :)
       
    16. My first doll was a boy, but I love to think of him as a lovely genderfluid sort of character as he has a soft almost feminine faceups so I can dress him either way
       
    17. My first doll is a boy:XD:and my dolls all boy
       
    18. My first was a boy but I'm shelling OCs that are a het couple so I'm on the lookout for a girl to go with him! I can appreciate how guys have straightforward clothing options, but I want to have the full range of clothing and accessory styles to play with, so I'm definitely looking forward to having a girl to dress up!
       
    19. First doll is a girl, by now I have mix of both gender. My boys tend to have this stoic masculine vibe going on that its just easier to let the girls be the "cute/bishie boy" type character for projects. The girls end up stealing most of the clothes anyway.
       
    20. First doll was a boy, I do have one girl despite having plans for mostly male sculpts. Though I do feel like I'd want more girl dolls to shell my characters, there seems to be a lack of muscular female bodies on the market. :huh?:
