My sister has collected dolls for while now and has always gone with ones from around the world. She has recently started on reborn which are hyper real dolls that look like real babies. I find it creepy they but each to their own. She has started wandering about with the fucking doll in a baby pram, I met her for lunch and assumed when she came in with a pram that due was babysitting a friends baby, she doesn't have a baby herself. On closer inspection there is a bloody reborn doll with a bloody dummy in its gob. I couldn't stay when she took the damn thing out to hold and walked away. She said that "reborn community " are used to mockery and why can't I just be happy for her. I told her because she is a grown woman pushing a dolly in a pram and its fucking weird. She wants to bring it to family parties......I can't cope!!!!Thoughts anyone?

I agree it’s a bit odd but she’s not hurting anyone so what’s the harm? I’m sure plenty of people have interests that seem a bit strange to others who don’t understand them. To each their own.

Creepy as fuck. Though I may be biased: the first time I saw one in the wild, my brain saw non breathing baby, and I grabbed it to start CPR. Obviously as soon as I laid hands on it I twigged, but still embarrassing.

I agree, it's crazy.
