If I consider that prominence of sight pulsion, body image distortion, control of mind are signs of anorexia,

I can think that "Blythe Doll" might be a representation of an anorexic doll or anorexic girl.

Did you have already eyes contact with Blythe?

Their impact is the first thing you would remind from her, as they're huge and her  bright face as well

comparing the scale of her puny body.

And it works!

Thousand of people wants to have Blythe because something is so strong in her!

I dare to think that's her great eyes and her special build with a huge head and a frail body

could be a successful combination for being memorized, and becoming special and loved.

These cute, puppy proportions have the WOW "factor".

And that approximately the same drastic strategy that an anorexic girl tries to use.

She wants to connect with your mind, not with your body.

A sort of hypnosis is going to occurs between her and you.

She avoids physical contact, in using an overwhelming X-ray glance,  because she has put her small body on one side

and she wants to do the same with yours.

There's no space between her soul and yours.

Why?

- Because her own very bad and poor experience of "her Mother's holding-handling".

 

{"But what happens if the mother does not provide the holding environment in which the Child can grow and become a healthy self,

or provides too much stimulation, for example to painful levels?

The child's psychological development ceases and experiences impingement.

He could feel ignored, because his desires are not answered and could experience problems in his own subjectivity.

The child can even become traumatized, and develope a sense much more than another.

{Winnicott felt that a good-enough mother allows herself to be used by the infant (Doll)

so that he or she may develop a healthy sense of omnipotence which will naturally be frustrated as the child matures.

Winnicott's theory is especially innovative regarding his conceptualization of the psychic space between the mother and infant,

neither wholly psychological or physical, which he termed the "holding environment" and which allows for the child's transition

to being more autonomous.

This concept of the "holding environment" led Winnicott to develop his famous theory of the "transitional object."

Winnicott felt that a failure of the mother — the not-good-enough mother — to provide a "holding environment"

would result in a false self disorder, the kind of disorders which he saw in his practice."}

So I love Dolls, Blythe espacially, because she has been very clever to introduce herself in the heart of many people,

that unconsciously have a fondness for prominence use of their scopic pulsion.

So do I.
