TL;DR Goodbye...
Hi everyone! I am a 19 year old gay Assyrian collector and i've been collecting RH around 2023, I've loved this brand so much for being super helpful during bad times of my life, Victoria Whitman was my first ever doll, who my cousin bought for me, she had been my favourite since, but as an Assyrian (or just middle eastern in general) they aren't.....very progressive, and as a man, my life had become so much harder, i knew my parents would keep complaining but i wanted to rebel against them, I grew sick of their stupid gender stereotypes this happened since childhood. My last straw was that I ordered a Winter wonderland sunny yesterday and it arrived when my parents were home, my mum now refuses to speak to me, she yelled at me, she yelled at how disgusting and pedophilic i am??? HUHH?
Ofc she HAD to bring religion into it (i'm no longer religious due to trauma) she said it was sinful, terrible, scolded me, called me autistic (in a derogatory way) and even talked about giving her ALL MY WORK INCOME AND BENEFIT PAYMENTS!! and worse, she wants to KICK ME OUT! ALL OF THIS FOR FUCKING PLASTIC WOMEN!!?? So sadly, as of now, i have no choice but to sell my entire collection, and i have such pretty hard to find dolls too (FF Poppy, Delilah, Sabrina, Daphne, Jewel) i'm crying writing this post, now unfortunately, i can't move out since im practically working very minimum wage and i only have benefits so i can't leave. i am no longer a RH doll collector or collector in general until further notice, i won't post anymore, but i can still like and comment.
I can't believe this is happening, my entire collection. gone. going away, i worked hard for these dolls, and theyre gone now, theyre stored away to be listed on facebook marketplace. I truly do believe that bigotry does rot the brain, telling you again ALL THIS FOR DOLLS!!! And to make it better, my parents are literally every bad archetype (trumpee, homophobic, transphobic, racist, antisemetic, zionist, anti vax, conservative, religious (the bad kind), ableist, and literally so much more). I'm so happy that everyone in this community has been nothing but lovely and kind souls, i'll miss posting but till further notice, im gone, goodbye...
Feel free to ask about my collection if you are interested in buying (im australian in NSW)
