So, I'm stereotypical and played with Barbie dolls as a child. I would say that's a somewhat uninspired attempt at originality, Mademoiselle.

Remember to outweigh it with something of actual relevance.

If it's stereotypical, how can it be an attempt at originality?

[downplaying]

The stereotypical can be reinvented, with the right approach.

[nomorefeathers]

True.

And what we like as children doesn't always influence who we are as adults.

[downplaying]

I won't say that my childhood hasn't taken its effect on my adult life, but certain things Barbie dolls just won't change.

[nomorefeathers]

Did your parents actually buy them for you?

[downplaying]

No. My mother let me borrow my sisters'. I was very fascinated by the female shape, although you can't exactly claim that Barbie is the most accurate depiction of it. Especially not in the 60s and early 70s.

[nomorefeathers]

Fascinated artistically or... physically?

[downplaying]

Objectively, I think. Women' bodies are a collection of very interesting lines.

[nomorefeathers]

I would have to agree. On all merits. Though, from a strict aesthetic perspective, there's much to be said for the male form as well.

[downplaying]

I'll be the last to disagree with such a sentiment.

[nomorefeathers]

You're not speaking purely aesthetically any more, are you?

[downplaying]

No.

[justcrywolf]

Barbie dolls. Seriously?

[downplaying]

Yes, honey. Barbie dolls.

[justcrywolf]

Cute. They could've lived in my houses.

[downplaying]

You played with doll houses?

[justcrywolf]

Fuck no. I re-made them.

[downplaying]

That's a surprise.

[justcrywolf]

It was that or roll in the mud.

[downplaying]

I have imagined you rolling in the mud many times.

[justcrywolf]

Sexy. I've never actually been that dirty.

[downplaying]

That's a shame. Some day we should fuck at a spa where they do mud treatments.

[justcrywolf]

Darling, I'd fuck in a garbage can with you if that's your turn-on.

[downplaying]

[A laugh.]

Don't be disgusting.
