Key phrases; Teaches Acceptance, Flesh decays from a dead body, Supernatural beings.
The series even has a stop bullying campaign and brings awareness to many other very good causes, but all some people can focus on is how the characters look.

Every day I get more proof for my hypotheses that people would be bored if they're not over-analyzing.
ok
you have a VERY selective way of discerning what constitutes acceptance. or perhaps very very poor reading comprehension skills.
things we can agree on: monster high as a franchise is trying to promote acceptance.
things we disagree on, or clearly you have a poor way of sharing your thoughts on: inclusion and promotion of body types that aren't stick skinny.
if you're trying to tell me that i'm somehow shallow because i want people to stop looking at fat people and immediately assuming that they're ugly, unattractive, or somehow unworthy of existing, then you can't make ANY sort of claim that you care more about the "message" of monster high, since clearly, your version of acceptance has conditions.
if you're trying to say how you cant believe that people would try to shame certain bodies and body types in this franchise, wherein one of the main, overriding messages is acceptance and self-love, then your thoughts are muddled and messy, and you should streamline and clarify your points before you try sharing them, lest people (like me) get confused.
and that whole little point you're trying to make about "decaying bodies being skinny" is rather pointless in this particular setting, because:
1) Operetta is not an undead, or made of decaying flesh. She's canonically just "Daughter of the Phantom of the Opera," not "zombie daughter of the phantom of the opera."
2) The designs for monster high don't really pay attention to believability or dabble in "realism" too often.
and if you think i'm "overanalyzing," it's because you poorly presented your case, not because i'm "bored."
Jesus H. Christ, people come up with some ridiculous justifications for sizism.
