Thank you Killa.
Actually I thought this thread had died a natural and your members moved on. Apparently not, perhaps there were a lot of posts deleted as being too unfriendly and making it quiet.
Anyway - there is a pre-occupation with thought regarding the sex angle. Yes sure it's there but comparing it to a dildo or a mag or porn is off the mark and doesn't compare.
First there are as many shades of grey between the black and white as there are doll owners as to the why and wherefores. And you have to stop thinking in your own age time & that there are just young bucks (anyone under 45 in my book) involved. Think over a lifetime and the doll hobby could be something at the beginning before you find that someone, in the middle between someones or at the end when the someones are rare or too wrinkled (as you will be one day).
As a doll owner it would be fair to say that only about 20% of dolls I see on the forums inspire me to think of sex. However, we respect
absolutely each others dolls and their respective taste in clothes, make up, hair and eye colour. We also respect their photography as not everyone is as good as everyone else.
There is a thread, for anyone really interested to get a better handle on it and worth the read, at TDF:
http://dollforum.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=8&t=32303
which covers the 'presence' of dolls in ones life quite well at least from one aspect.
Someone asked early on about whether dolls make one more depressed.
After my third long term (over 7 years) relationship breakup I was suicidally depressed. Since getting 'my girls' I have not been even close to being there. Not only because of the girls but also because of the community.

that is the first time I've been aroused by a doll in this thread
Natasha got a bit upset with that remark. (Yvonne, the doll in question is one of my four).
OK, someone asked about anecdotes.
I have been doing a lot of extensive home renovations recently (not me personally) and a lot of tradesmen had been coming and going over a period of months. The girls are never hidden but lounging around the house as usual either on their stands or in a chair (never naked and usually reasonably dressed).
Well, one time when I was out shopping and the guys were busy pulling my bathroom apart, on returning home I noticed that Natasha's skirt (see above) was 'not quite how I had left it' and Anette's panties were 'slightly to one side'. Only a couple of millimeters but they definitely had a peek ...... Boys will be boys.
You see silicone can be sticky and clothes do not always fall back to where they were. And I am very observant.
By the way. Has anyone bothered to checkout the links I gave to 'the girls' (my) CoverDoll blog?

Mostly light humour so if you want a smile go visit.
Any feedback appreciated.
