I thought the Gotta Go Doll was extreme, but the Pole Dancing Doll takes the cake. Actually, let Gotta Go Doll have her cake, Pole Dancing Doll is sure to rack in more dough anyways.
Blinking, flashing, and rotating (otherwise known as grinding), this doll is sure to revolutionize the way girls are raised. Barbies? Too sophisticated. We need to bring sexy back for the kids.
Honestly, I’d like to read some of the mail this company must be racking up in response the release of this “toy." I thought the USB powered pole dancer was bad, but as Jesus Diaz of Gizmodo puts it, “this one is actually for kids.”
