Britain's Channel 4 put together a riveting documentary on the phenomenon of fake babies — incredibly realistic dolls that adults purchase in most cases to, well, fill some sort of need. But those needs and motivations vary, which is why the subject warranted a documentary.
It's posted on YouTube — not embeddable, sadly — in five parts. Enjoy...
holy eff. I am so glad I can watch this!
The YouTube videos aren't available anymore due to copyright claims. And I can't watch it on Channel 4's website as I own a Mac, and not a PC. Alas, alas.
