*I want to reiterate that these are my opinions of the problems that I've seen, if you liked the unnamed youtuber in question; that's your prerogative*
Speaking of racism in the community: I follow a Black silicone doll artist who wanted to do a giveaway. One of the white commenters asked if she could have a “Caucasian” baby, as she is also Caucasian and would probably bound with the baby a lot better. The artist that to politely shut her down and say that it’s a giveaway, not a giveaway custom. What you get is what you get. I was gobsmacked at the white audacity, but was extremely proud of the Black reborn silicone artists for putting her foot down! I’m pretty sure it was Erica’s Reborn Nursery who did that. Love her videos!
But also it’s a giveaway so don’t enter the giveaway if you don’t like the doll. If someone is nice enough to give you something for free you either 1. Don’t complain about it or 2. Don’t accept it.
12:11 i remember there was a video a while back, where someone was discussing their “frustrations” about making Black dolls and how “difficult” it is… it was so odd and clearly had some micro-aggressive motives. 😵💫
There always is. There was this wh!te creator that said “blk reborns are hard to make pretty, that’s why I don’t do them”. So I just thought she meant she had no experience making blk reborns so it would be difficult to make them realistic with so little experience. But when another commenter asked her to elaborate on what she meant, the artist said she doesn’t see a lot of beautiful blk babies she could use as a reference to paint a blk reborn…I forgot the artist name but that’s not the first time I’ve seen some artist say some of those things. They always go on abt how “impossible” it is to make them and it “takes a special type of person and skill” to make a blk reborn/silicone. Honestly I’m not surprised. That’s why I will learn to paint my own. I would not want to give money to people like that.
@@livelaughlove5421 i really wish you remembered this “artist” name because that’s completely inexcusable and they need to face the repercussions for it.
Omg love this video. So glad to hear someone talk about things are actually important. Advertising to children is a big one too that i think is an interesting angle. Regardless this video is great. Love your channel.
I've noticed that people inside the community love to attack each other over petty things while simultaneously ignoring the bigger problems that actually affect the bigger part of the community. The racism is so digusting and blatant but when you talk about it suddenly everyone wants to hold hands and sing kumbaya. It's funny in the worst way possible.
Don't we wish the community would talk about real issues. Thank you for being you. I'll watch a real creator. Before the everything is sunshine and rainbows creator. I have to admit this green guy. Did much more research than most do. He still didn't get it quite right.
We already get weird looks in the store and get picked on online for our reborn hobby so why should there be drama in the reborn this is something I will never understand
Well said, Shawn! Thank you for having the courage to make this video. I think I know which TH-camr you are talking about and yes, she is a toxic person who has been known to spread some dangerous theories and yes, is acting pretty inappropriately. Keep doing what you're doing - love the babies, by the way! Letting the ads run for you so you can hopefully see some TH-cam $$$!💗💗💗

I just have to say, as a fellow reborn dad it's awesome to see more reborn dads in the community! Thank you for sharing your thoughts with us

what's even more sad and weird is she thinks she'll bond more deeply w the white doll..
But also it’s a giveaway so don’t enter the giveaway if you don’t like the doll. If someone is nice enough to give you something for free you either 1. Don’t complain about it or 2. Don’t accept it.
That baby girl is so beautiful ❤Looks like you did an amazing job on her.
I love your thoughts! I'm new to this hobby. It is all so interesting. So much to learn not only about the dolls, but the psychology of it all.

@@livelaughlove5421 wow! 😲 not surprising at all but omg that’s just blatantly racist!! 💆🏽♀️ i’m starting to lean more into creating my own as well.

18:34 that last part is so real! 😭❤️ like why is this celebrated EVER?!
Thank you for always keeping it real. I love all of your videos. Can’t wait for the next one! Happy weird Tuesday!
I used to watch Green is Not Nick, but I stopped watching him last year due to his rushed research at times.
I love your style and honesty👍
I want to know which TH-camr is this! 👀
I completely agree with you
Thanks for sharing 😊

Unfortunately when you get a group of people who only share one main thing in common, it's bound to cause disagreements!
who is it? the one being weird with kids?
I love that baby you holding she is adorable ❤
Lucky I found this channel
Hi how are you doing are you a reborn artist
That baby is adorable ❤❤❤ Great chat❤❤❤❤
Hey we miss you
youre fuking awesome.
Thanks for sharing ❤
New here; great video! ❤
Such a beautiful baby!
I saw the video you spoke is and yes I wish there had been more meat and substance
Hi there! It's sad that the reborn community is plaqued with such nonsense! We just want to dress our dolls-that's it!
That's how I feel but with a group of people, there's always bound to be some that are bad.
you do you
