OMG they are not Bratz. I'm familiar with the dolls, I don't have any though but I've read their boxes and stuff when I saw them in the mall. I thought they were cool.
First of all, Bratz are just sluts, basically, and I wouldn't let my kids play with Bratz because I don't want my kids to idolize slutty, stuck up girls who rely on daddy to do everything for them. At least Barbie was like a doctor and stuff and actually has some pretty nice dresses and classy looking clothes in her wardrobe. Being a tramp is optional for Barbie. Bratz don't even have a purpose, except to teach little girls how to dress inappropriately for their age.
Second of all, everything is sexualized to some degree. That's just marketing. Even dolls for guys like freaking GI Joe, his body is sculpted to be the ideal good looking man.
Lastly, the Monster High dolls are just cool. They're not little whores like the Bratz, they have a THEME. And it's not goth, I think it's great to have a line that interests people who like old school horror and monster lore and stuff like that. I would have totally loved to have some of those dolls as a kid/teen. I still find them appealing as an adult, actually, I just don't have a lot of money to go out and buy new stuff lol.
Sorry for the rant, lol, I just really hate Bratz more than anything, and I think these dolls are kinda cool and definitely not the same thing.
