Is it normal that i hate dolls?

I really hate dolls! When I see a doll I get a rage inside me and if I don't get away from the doll right away I will destroy it. I'll rip it's hair out and tear it's body parts off. If it's well-constructed and I can't rip it's head off I will beat it against a hard surface until I am exhausted.

The bigger a doll is, the more I hate it, also if it has curly hair that really sends me over the edge.

My father-in-law called me once and mentioned he had these 2 dolls that he was going to send to me and I flipped out on him. When he said "doll" and "send" it was like a switch flipped in my head and I started screaming at him and it felt like I was outside of my own body as this happened. I wasn't really in control of the words coming out of my mouth but everything I said I meant.

I was watching Hoarders one time and this lady hoarded dolls. They said she had so many dolls in her attic that her house was about to collapse. House collapse due to the WEIGHT OF THOUSANDS OF DOLLS, that is he most fucked thing ever and I'm so damn MAD. I got so mad at the fact that there is this many dolls in the world and this made me start drinking alcohol.

IIN?

    Mm. Okay. Interesting.
    I think this could be an extension of the uncanny valley for you. The uncanny valley is basically the phenomenon of how startlingly life-like things, such as robots made to look nearly human, but not quite, creep people out.

    Maybe since you have the problem with seeing actual people as being real, for you the uncanny valley phenomenon is triggered by regular dolls.

    That's just my theory, though. Don't know how valid it is.

    I was gonna click yeah its normal because dolls give me the creeps, my sister had this lifesize,well kid-sized doll when we were little and it used to sit in the corner in the bedroom, (which was in the attic of this fekin massive creepy house we had bought, still gives me nightmares) with its head drooped, when she'd left it with its head up...them black round empty eyes would feel like thy were watching me I swear! nah hate em, but not to the point of wanting to rip their heads off, probably coz I don't ever have any near me though!

    I kind of see where you're coming from. I too hate dolls. I hate how people (even children) invest emotions into them, this thing that has no life, no emotions, can't love you back. It's so upsetting for me sometimes that I actually need to go find a hug from a real, breathing being just to get that horrible sickening feeling out of my chest. I want to cry just thinking about it.

    Not just baby dolls. Nintendogs and robotic puppy dogs make me feel the same way. That article about the cardboard cut-outs of children's fathers who have gone to war (it was supposed to make the kids feel better) really upset me. The robotic boyfriend/girlfriend is just horrible. Those extremely life-like newborns... no, gotta stop there.

    It's less anger for me and more a feeling of intense grief.

    I think it's anything that mimics a life form that I would normally love. If someone made a doll of me I'd burn it. If someone made a doll of someone I love I'd ask someone else to burn it... and then seek therapy, no exaggeration.

    Does that sound similar, or not quite?

    (I really need a hug now)

    I hate the way dolls look, with their fat little faces, & round eyes. Totally freaky!

    What do you hate about them? Their association with childhood? girlhood? motherhood? perfection? Their social impact? I avoid dolls for various reasons, but I don't violently hate them. What if you have a daughter some day and people gift her with dolls?

    • I hate the textures of them. I hate that under their clothes they have a body made of different materials than the hands, feet and face. I hate how some of them look like they have make-up on. I hate the frizz in their hair.

      I have an issue with seeing actual people as being real and dolls aggravate this.

      I do have a daughter and dolls are a problem. I try to allow her to do what she wants and mostly it works out but I have had to take a few dolls and fill them with lead.

        That is a really strange dilemma.

        Do you mean you view people as inanimate or do you feel disconnected from people like they're a different species; or is it that dolls and people have come to look too much alike? Have you had any bad experiences with dolls that might have triggered the hate?

    It sounds like your phobia is having a negative impact on your life. Maybe you should try talking to a therapist about it...

    Honestly, I saw the same episode of Hoarders with the baby doll hoarder and when they showed her mountain of baby dolls in the backyard I wanted to set them on fire and make her watch! That awful hag gave me the creeps how she treated the stupid dolls like they were real or alive or whatever. And then she got extra dolls to use for spare parts so she could do surgery on some of em. Yuck! Set those creepy things on fire!

    I actually loved Barbie as a kid but I hate baby dolls!
