Has playing Barbies as a child affected who you are today?

"I think it affected me when i was younger. I was best friends with a girl who was like a barbie, blonde hair, pretty and rich, I pretty much wanted to be her. then she turned out to be a massive bitch and I realised for myself that looks and clothes aren't everything. But i guess maybe Barbies might have added to that way of thinking in the beginning."
