NEW YORK: A New York doll maker says it will be selling what it believes is the first transgender doll on the market.
Tonner Doll Company explained that the doll, which doesn’t have genitalia, resembles teenage activist Jazz Jennings who was born a boy but lives as a female.
Sixteen-year-old Jennings was propelled to fame as one of the youngest people ever officially documented as a transgender. She has signalled her personal approval of the doll, which she thinks sends out a positive message about being transgender.
“Ever since I was little, I always loved playing with dolls,” she said in an interview ahead of the toy fair.
The doll is being made by the Tonner Doll Company, based in Kingston, New York. The company specialises in making collectible fashion and specialist dolls for adults and children – including TV, comic book and movie characters such as Wonder Woman, Spider Man and Harry Potter. It boasts a plus-size doll in its range and claims to have a history of groundbreaking dolls based on “socially transformational heroes”.
