dolls are not beautiful

dolls are not even accurate

dolls are nothing more than a mere abstract representation of a being. whatever the being might be

its common misconception to think that the doll repressents the perfection of the being for it doesn't. and it was never meant to. for the sake of the craftsman's skill it is nothing more than a simplification of the being

all things that give character are removed, stripped,

for they are too hard to replicate

all the ails and functions of the being are forgotten in the creation of the simple representation
for it is hoped that this ails and functions are common knowledge and will be assumed

just like when you draw an apple you leave out things due to the assumption that other viewers will think of the other apples they know.

a perfect doll is just that, a perfect simplification abstraction of the being it is meant to remind the viewer of.

and yet the human race keeps the doll as a means of beauty.
of skin lifeless, eyes dull and dead
hair synthetic and body skewed out of proportion

lips that are of glaze and paint, skin that cannot breathe

dolls are not beautiful. wake up and look in the mirror, the doll you so fancy is a mere abstraction of you.

Very well put, :) and very comforting and re-assuring. I just expressed sentiments along these lines in my photos & blogs.

Thanks for the faves, too.
