Weird things your parents/roommates have said...

Aug 9, 2010

    1. I put my RS Chun Sydney out on my nightstand in her stand one night and left my little light on to read. I try to keep the dolls fairly secret from my parents cause they don't react well. But they all know about Syd, even my dad. It was late so I figured they'd all be in bed so I wasn't worried about having her out. Well my dad came down to my room and scared the hell out of me. He says "So is that you're new sex partner? I noticed she has tits." I just said no then when he asked me how much she cost, I said only $100 lol.

      The other day after my parents both snuck into my closet and found one of my other dolls and My Little Pony shrine, my mom asks me:
      Mom: Where'd your doll go?
      Me: Huh? Syd?
      Mom: The big one she had the sign that said don't touch me
      Me: Oh, I put her away so as to not antagonize anyone.

      It kinda made me laugh inside to think my mom might have wanted to actually see her even though she always gives me crap about it.
       
    2. "But why would you want a lifesize doll that you can dress up? ...Isn't that called sex doll?"

      My mom, when I tried explaining BJD's to her for the first time and she thought they were lifesized. My mom always speaks her heart so she has said some crazy things over the years that I unfortuntely don't all remember. One of the things I'll never forget is that when I received an ecchi figure (so a little offtopic, but I wanted to share it anyway) that wasn't dressed up in the box, she came to have a look at what I received. She saw the figure and exclaimed "you can come and show her to me when she's dressed!", before storming out of my room xD.
       
    3. My mom used to check, what's in their pants. I just gave her a doll for a moment and that was the first thing she'd do.
      That was wierdly the most interesting thing about my dolls for her - if they have something in there. OMG! That's confusing even now. My poor boys...

      Oh, oh! I remembered one more!
      My friend had a hard relationship with one guy, but then they broke up. And then she came to me one day and saw my Euclase...
      Her ex doesn't look anything like Euclase, but she thinks he does.
      So she's calling my doll by the name of her ex-boyfriend, and everytime she's at my appartment she takes him and speaks to him. And I'm the weird one after that >__<

      I love this thread btw)))
       
    4. When my husband saw a DC Dorris with a bj penis he asked me if the girl dolls had open vaginas to make doll porn. :XD: It's a fair question I guess. Why would there be a doll with a floppy penis if not for some weird purpose?
       
    5. I was with my friend on "Q Cafรฉ" (gay friendly caffรฉ in Prague) and I had my boy with me. I made him sit on the table, the waiter come and said: "That doll is cute! What is her name?"
      "Her name is Nigel and she is actually a boy."
      "Boy? Really? Can you undress him?"
      Everyone wants to see naked doll boy just to be sure they have EVERYTHING. xD
       
    6. When I first got Maggie, I had her sitting out, naked, as I was making up patterns. My dad comes into the kitchen, stops, looks at her and says in a dead pan voice, "She's got some big tits," and then proceeds to walk out of the room. My mom and I just stared at each other for a minite before bursting into a fit of laughter.
       
    7. My mom always asks me daily, "why don't your XX doll wear his/her new cloth?" I anwers, "Mom, I haven't bought and sewed any yet. I'll do next time." She looks at me and shakes her head, "My holly god, this daughter is so lazy! You should use your free time do something good for your doll. Go, sew some clothes for them!" :|

      I have a feeling that my dolls secretly betray me and go to tell mom to get new clothes...
       
    8. My husband still says that Freyr is a girl instead of a boy, even though he has seen all of it. It's the face he says, get him some many hair or something. So I saw a perfect outfit for him on Iplehouse which I got for him. So when I showed him to my husband again he just stared at Freyr and said that he looked like a girl who wants to be a boy now, or a drag queen.:| Only his new shoes were cool :(
       
    9. I agree with most. It's not required but it's a great ego boost if someone does. Not everyone has the same taste, so what I like could completely violate someone's personal tastes and vice versa.
       
    10. "That girl's got some titties on her."

      My sister, basically every time I get a new girl.
       
    11. I had mine laying flat on the ground yesterday while I was undressing them/switching clothing, and my mother walks in -- "They look like corpses. Is this a morgue? Is corpses even the plural of corpse?"
       
    12. Love this thread. So funny XD

      When I first got into doll collecting a couple of years ago, I started with Makies (off topic a little, but bare with me) and I had to give a 'reason' for buying them to the family, which was to use in my art and practice stop motion animation. However when I finally moved onto BJD's I could no longer excuse the fact that I am adult and I just simply like dolls.

      My mothers reaction to my dolls... "Why dolls? I get that you want to collect something, but why does it have to be them?" For Leonard, being an EID and knowing he was going to be large I warned her first. It took her two days before she would enter the room as she had convinced herself that he was going to be life size :lol: "Oh, that's not as bad as I thought." *walks back out* ...umm

      Or her favourite comment when she sees them out off their boxes "You're never going to grow up are you?" :| No mum, no I'm not.

      What I find most frustrating I guess is that my grandmother used to collect old china dolls and my mum was the one who started buying them for her... Why is resin so different? Oh well... ;)
       
    13. Back when I got my first doll I dressed him in leather pants and some goth-looking boots and the first thing my boyfriend said was "He's got some kind of a gay S&M thing going......." lol. I told him something like "nah, he's just more of a rock star" and my BF said "same thing" /angryface >:( haha

      When I showed him to my brother the first time saying "my boy will love this new clothes!" he replied "you sure it's a boy?... his lips are kinda girly!"
      Well I only replied "yes I'm sure, I've seen him naked" xD

      First thing my mom said after I mentioned buying dolls for a while (my family thought it was a joke at first) was "and why is a person of your age going to play with dolls....?" I said "It makes me happy" and she said "Awwww" and patted me on the head lol.

      I get the feeling my dolls will never really have it easy here!
       
    14. My mom, I swear is as bad as me and she says it too.

      Mom: C'mon. 8D *pulls into Dollar store* Let's see if they got some toys for your dolls!

      Me: 8D okay!


      Mom: OAO *GASP*

      Me: What?

      Mom: *holds up Yo-SD sized fainting couch* LOOK AT THIS! OAO

      Me: OAO C-can I has?

      Mom: YES! 8D They need one...And it can hold their jewelry too.


      Me: *talking to my dad* Huh?

      Mom: *looking at two of my smaller dolls* *sad face* *motions that they don't have necklaces yet*

      Me: *whisper* We'll make them some.


      Yeah... Now if I could find a chance to buy her a doll for herself. >w>
       
    15. Why is that the first thing they always say?!
       
    16. my mother said stop obsessing over bjd's:...( and start obsessing over boys :sweat:XD: :blush
       
    17. Huh... Now that I think about it, I think my dad was glad the only man I had in the house was Avalon... But she didn't say you couldn't obsess over boy BJD's.

      >w>
       
    18. my mum said "stop sitting on the computer and looking at dolls and go get a boyfriend " :XD:
       
    19. My mom has said as much to me when I'm cooing over my guys more shamelessly than usual. xD

      I'm working on commissions for a friend's doll, and the guy in question, a very beefy 76cm BeWithYou sculpt, is on loan while I tailor things to fit. When I brought him home my dad looked him over and I heard him say to my mom, "Well, she finally brought home a man. Unfortunately, I have to say he doesn't quite measure up."
       
    20. When I got my first doll, I was explaining that he was anatomically correct to my mom and the look of horror on her face was priceless. What was less than priceless was that she then demanded to see his tiny wee-wee to "see the sculpting details" *_* Horrifying.
