Yep, agreed. And actually, I’d say playing with dolls as an adult is also kind of creepy. I’d find just collecting them LESS creepy, to be honest. But at the same time, this general attitude and my specific feelings extend to a lot of things that ultimately just smack of (internalized) misogyny. As the secret indicates, men collecting action figures may be seen as nerds, but they’re still making ~investments into ~memorabilia. Men collecting sports stuff are less nerdy and this type of collection is even more acceptable. If women collect ~childish or fannish things, they are infantilized and/or it is immediately reframed as preparing themselves for their true adult purpose of being “mommies”. It’s frustrating and annoying, and I don’t blame the OP for being angry about it, no matter how I personally feel about dolls.
