OK, why do this? Why make this doll? I want answers.

We came up with the concept for GIL because the members of our cooperative, myself included, were sick and tired of people treating us with prejudiced niceness, as if we were kids or had an inferior intellect. We wanted to do something that provoked people to think about how they treat us. I am sick and tired of people talking over my head, saying stuff like, "Should he really be drinking when he's in a wheelchair?"



Are you happy with how the doll has been received? Hasn't it caused some confusion?

I've been interviewed by most mainstream media in Sweden and even by the BBC, which is brilliant. We wanted to cause a stir, that's why we made the retard doll.



Are people pissed off with you for making jokes about the handicapped?

I don't consider the GIL doll a joke at all. It is a campaign to raise awareness about how wheelchair-bound people wish to be treated like everyone else, to start a discussion.



How many dolls have you sold?

I don't have exact numbers but we've made 300 of them and the interest is so big we might have to make more. If you want to buy one you can just email us.
