It’s been a long time since I wanted a toy!
I did like Barbies as a child and also the Cabbage Patch Dolls. But mostly I just played with stuffed animals. I do think when you get dolls with hair, it starts to become more about beauty and stuff like that.

I think with the Barbies though that we had elaborate storylines. I think sometimes we cut their hair off, but I don’t remember paying much attention to their clothes or hair.

I want to say that Barbie didn’t have an effect on my body image. But I did later have an eating disorder so who knows….
