This is what equality looks like. People who use braces are represented in dolls now. It's a small thing that barely matters, but this is a push on the right direction.
I don't want to be treated like some kind of other group. Having a brace for scoliosis is not something that should be shunned or put on a pedestal.
I want corporations to treat me like everyone else. As a wallet for them to exploit.
The person who wrote the original comment sounds like they want pity for their condition. Pity is for losers. I don't let any of my disabilities define me and I despise people like that.

The point is money. All companies want all the money and will cash in on everything that they can. There is nothing special about this doll or having scoliosis.

Counter point, original poster is a child having a tantrum over a doll not looking the same as them. This is stupid, I shouldn't have to argue against a massive amount of insanity like this.

I have scoliosis too and uh, wtf are you talking about? Are you gatekeeping scoliosis? What is wrong with you?

This particular and exact situation is a good thing. If you want to twist my words and make it sound stupid, then go ahead. My point is that no grown adult should be getting their panties in a twist over a doll with a brace.
