the real

I was telling a co-worker how much I liked the movie Lars and the Real Girl. She, being fascinated by novelty, had found a documentary about actual men who create lives around doll women. If you're longing to see something truly disturbing and bizarre (who isn't on a Thursday night?), check out:

It's funny how men can seek after plastic for relationships, but there's no mention of women ever buying fake doll men. I think we need voice more than flesh.

I think women sometimes need plastic to fill in the missing elements. For me that plastic comes in the shape of a credit card.
I agree with the voice, and words and connection that words give...flesh is nice too though.

I think we women need to be seen and heard -- so eyes and ears are important to us also.
