I bought this doll for my son at a fete on the weekend (I do love fete season). I had picked up a girl doll when the woman behind the table told me that there was a lovely boy one.

I'm all for seeing yourself reflected in the culture, so I picked him up. Then she apologised because he had no clothes on, which was "a bit rude". Just like all the nudey girl dolls, none of whom provoked an apology.

I am choosing not to make anything of the fact that the fete was at a Catholic primary school, and just putting it down to her being a bit of an idiot.
