This site is OK as long as girls don't look up to these dolls as role models.

I like it.It's just so noticeable that they only made it for the dolls.

For little girls who like to fashion
I think this game is okay for little girls. It is about shipping and clothes, but many, young girly girls like that sort of stuff (I did). But it doesn't have the best messages in it for girls, but I don't think it's only okay for ten-year-olds; most of them probably wouldn't want to play these games.

Perfect For Little Girls, Sucks For Teenagers and Adults
It is definitely infomercial, and super skinny "hot", fashion models may offend some people. I loved all the makeup and designer games when I was little, but I hate the website now. It has no problems, just a little girl type website.

Bored
I don't get why Common Sense Media rated this on for +10, I went on when I was 5. The games are fun the first time but then they become boring. Ok if you like pointless dressup/makeup games.

Cool site
Its a cool site.....

 
Fantastic site, if you're the CEO of Claire's, MUDD, Juicy...
Awful stuff. The video I watched starred four friends who had promised each other they'd take a break from shopping. They lied to each other, caved, then proudly declared themselves to be "mall maniacs." Forget the moronic video, forget the fact that myscene apparently thinks ghoulishly thin is cute, forget that the girls are complete idiots... my question is how did commonsensemedia give this site an "on" rating? If this kind of rubbish passes muster with CSM, why even bother? Guys, do something else for a living, you're not good at this.

My friend told me about the website and I loved it but then i got tired of it because there is only a couple of games but they are good games.

Shallow. 'Nuff said.
This website is so incredibly shallow its not even funny. On one of the girl's profiles on the site, it said that she loved to "take Daddy's limo" to clubs. And in one of the videos, one of the girls had a cold and was supposed to DJ at, you guessed it, a nightclub. So one girl says "Shopping fixes everything! We'll take you." They go on a massive shopping spree, and the girl feels better. Not to mention they were insanely thin, perfect hair and changed outfits every three scenes. Also, in an episode, one girl was afraid to meet another girls friend. But she assured her, "She's TOTALLY one of US." It's the exact picture of stereotypical high school "populars".
