FAGGOT (STICKS AND STONES)

WHEN I WAS A LITTLE BOY, ALL I EVER WANTED WAS A RAINBOW BRITE DOLL. BUT I GREW UP IN A SMALL TOWN, WHERE BOYS PLAY WITH CARS AND GUNS AND GIRLS PLAYED WITH DOLLS. BUT EVEN NOW WHEN EVER I SEE A RAINBOW, IT STILL REMINDS ME OF RAINBOW BRITE, AND IT ALWAYS BRINGS A SMILE TO MY FACE.

It's ok...it's on wikileaks,how girls have always had a syndicate and control everything fun,and desirable..I've had a few moments in My Life,too...I like the way You expressed it.Always a taste of Dark Humor :)

I always wanted boots like her's but with hobnails on the toes - I was always scuffing up me toes - Rainbow Brite was always so cheerful as well - when she married my G.I. Joe and they moved away I wasn't sure I understood why they wanted to leave, but then I got a dog and that worked out pretty well - that was two years ago and I'm feeling a lot better about the whole thing - hope I never run into them on the street though - I just got back from a ruff fishing-trip so I'm waxing nostalgically now I'm back from the third world - I really like what you did with this image - you should put it in your Pop-Art Folder - bewdy ~:0)

Strange how people care so much about what is none of there business. We each have a life to live in which we each have somthing to give. Who the hell wants a world where all the ice cream is vanilla, the sky one shade of blue, the grass one shade of green and its' people one shade of mean?

This is simply WONDERFUL.. It's never too late to buy yourself this " Rainbow Brite " why not ?:-)... Once children educated differently then today... although , also today some will say, the dolls are for girls and cars for boys.. but these days... there's much more of a chance of the boys to play with dolls if they wish it.

You go girl. cool package. I love this strong statement. And actually words do hurt people and often times more than physical damage. Aren't we lucky we have art to help overcome it. I asked for a doll like my sister and they actually got one but almost immediately broke the head off.

Boys play with dolls they just call them..."Action Figures" now. Have fun with your "Rainbow Brite" doll Gavin.

Very unusal but it makes a clear and bold statement.
