Atlanta-area mom, Tamatha Brannon, wasn't ready to have a sex talk with her 11-year-old son, Marvin, when he asked her last week what horny means. [snip] I'm appalled, she said. I'm sick. I want Toys R Us to take every one of those disgusting dolls off their shelves so no parent ever has to go through what I've just gone through. Geez, this mom is so uptight. A parent should give their kids the birds & bees talk when the *kid* is ready and starts asking, not when the parent is ready, and eleven years old is a pretty common age for that to start happening. This sounds like one of those clueless parents who are like, Well, my child isn't *corrupted*! Sure he/she is 30 years old now, but he/she doesn't know what *sex* is! And, good lord, having the sex talk with your child is not the Apocalypse! It certainly shouldn't make a parent sick. ~Jamie

Tamantha has been all over our local news for the past 3 or so days. The local DA has decided that the doll in question is not obscene, and does not feel that there is a case against Toys R Us. The DA was quoted as saying that _they_ are dropping the case, but it was up to her as to if Tamantha was going to drop the issue or pursue it further. Maryanne

Why does Toys R Us even carry the toys if they're meant for adults. They belong in novelty shops like Spencers Gifts and not in kiddie toy stores. I do think the lady is acting like an uptight bitch. So the kid saw the word horny on a box. There's worse stuff on tv. She's made a freaking crusade out of this, involving the cops, lawyers, DA, and news media. I feel sorry for the poor kid. With a mother like that, I'm surprised he doesn't end up gay and in therapy.

it's a coveted collector's item in Philadelphia. Atlanta-area mom, Tamatha Brannon, wasn't ready to have a sex talk with her 11-year-old son, Marvin, when he asked her last week what horny means. He got the word from an underwear-clad doll, depicting Austin Powers, the hero of two popular British spy spoofs, which asks, Do I make you horny, baby? Do I? a line from the latest flick, Austin Powers: The Spy Who Shagged Me. She filed an obscenity complaint against the Toys R Us chain after her son got the message from a doll at the Morrow, Ga., toy store. You can't buy one of the coveted dolls at the Toys R Us Store at Aramingo Avenue and Westmoreland Street because they're sold out - with nary a complaint about the language, said sales manager Joe Cremen. Cremen said he had some dolls last week, but as soon as we put them out, they went. He said the dolls only come 12 to a case, and a typical shipment is three cases. The dolls come in five or six different _style_s, and customers have been buying up all of them, leaving stocks depleted. A lot of adults are looking for them, said Cremen. He said about 60 percent of his store's doll buyers are adults. Collectors and dealers are looking for the stuff, too. It's just a fad. Then it will die down. That's not good enough for Tamatha Brannon. I'm appalled, she said. I'm sick. I want Toys R Us to take every one of those disgusting dolls off their shelves so no parent ever has to go through what I've just gone through. Brannon, of East Point, Ga., bought two of the offending creatures and gave one of them to the cops. The Morrow store has agreed to discontinue carrying the dolls. Brannon said she called other area stores and asked them to remove the figures, which portray Powers wearing only glasses, socks and bushy chest hair. Brannon said she complained to police that the toy is obscene and directs sexual innuendoes at children. She said her son is in no way ready for any sex conversations. I feel this toy had basically pushed us into a vocabulary word that he would never have known to ask, Brannon said. A Toys R Us company spokesman said the retailer believed the Morrow store was stocking a parental guidance version that instead asks Would you fancy a shag? The latest PG-13-rated Austin Powers movie, starring Mike Myers, is ragingly popular and has gotten generally good reviews for its comedy. The Georgia furor brought a statement from Todd McFarlane, president and CEO of Todd McFarlane Productions and McFarlane Toys, makers of the dolls, in which he blamed human error for the wrong version of the doll getting to Toys R Us. The toy in question, Austin 'Danger' Powers Ultra-'Cool' Action Figure, was a product that was supposed to ship to specialty retailers, McFarlane said, not those selling to the mass market, such as Toys R Us. Most of the Austin Powers action figures. . .had variant sound chips designed for different markets. That this figure with the sound chip 'Do I make you horny Baby, Do I?'. . .was shipped to the store in Atlanta is nothing more than an isolated event of human error. Daily News Wire Services contributed to this report. The one for kids is supposed to say, Do you fancy a shag? Isn't that even worse? Isn't a shag , a British term for screwing?

I agree. Why not just tell him honey, horny is what you feel when you sneak into the bathroom with your sister's copy of Cosmopolitan . This poor kid is going to get a thorough ribbing when he goes back to school.
