PARENTS have been sharing their outrage at unpacking LOL Surprise dolls with their kids to discover the boy dolls have genitals.

In order to encourage boys to play with dolls, toy manufacturer MGA Entertainment, which are also behind Bratz, introduced male dolls.

In keeping with the surprise element of the dolls, kids have no idea which gender doll they are getting until it is unboxed.

However, parents have taken to social media to say they were surprise the male dolls have a sculptured penis and testicles in the genital area, where the girl dolls have a hole.

Some branded the addition “disgusting” and others said it wasn’t appropriate for younger kids.

One mum wrote on Facebook: “Very inappropriate for a toy that states ages 3+. We won’t be buying anything LOL again.”

Another said on Twitter: “Why the f*** do the male LOL Surprise dolls have male genitals!?!? And detailed af too!?!?”

And one added: “Considering the majority of your consumers are little girls, I suggest this change IMMEDIATELY. Such a HUGE fail; please keep the genital area FLAT.”

MGA Entertainments explained that the feature has been added to reflect real life, but in a kid-appropriate way.

MGA Entertainment's CEO Isaac Larian told Fabulous Digital: "All of our LOL Surprise boy dolls have been (and will continue to be) anatomically correct.

"We believe in the importance of clarity and authenticity with our products and our consumers, and this approach has been carried through all of our products over the past 40 years.

"In the doll category, anatomically correct dolls have been available for many years.

"We currently have a notification on all packaging, and even on our web copy that states the LOL Surprise! boys are anatomically correct."

While some parents were upset at the design of the male dolls, others couldn’t see the issue.

One wrote: “Parents are offended by body parts? There’s nothing offensive about this, teach your kids proper terms and that yes, there ARE difference.”

And another pointed out as a joke that the company had simply delivered on the name and given customers a surprise.
