I had a Drowsey doll when I was very young. She had a string that you pulled and she would basically whine and complain. Now that I think about her she was an annoying brat, but back then, I loved her.
Well my mean older brothers would take her and torture her and terrorize me. They would push her face so far into her head it would get stuck and I am not sure what they did to her that made her not be able to talk, but she began talking way too fast. They did this to two separate Drowsy dolls! They were horrible and they both grew up to be engineers with daughters.
I never had another girlie type doll again and I don't wear dresses and my best friend is a dog and....................well you already read the cheerleader story so you know I wanted to play football................................Now look at me, I make dolls who wear dresses.
