Mainly just appalled that no one on any of the companies' staffs seemed to have any idea what a "Lolita" was or why it might be an issue.

A bed called Lolita for 6 year old girls. Sound like the company didn't know what they were talking about? I am not a parent but I am glad someone spoke up and this bed was taken out of stores.

lol only slightly disturbing...

that company should make an "old hag" themed bed for 80 years old and up.

i dunno, some people don't always associate lolita to what most people usually do. i noticed over here, there's a lot of black women named lolita, and i feel like i'm the only one who reacts strange to that name when i hear it.
