nah not at all. I had a grandma who was constantly pressuring me to be more feminine (and not crawl around on the floor and dig for bugs in the yard), who would try her damnest to force them on me, but I always stripped them naked and repurposed their clothes as beanie baby accessories ... (I didn't really 'get into' femininity as a concept or my own girlness until I was an adult, honestly).

I had a Pretty Pretty Princess gameset for the same reason, and I loved to put the clip-on earrings and bracelets, necklaces on my stuffed animals to make them beautiful :3 everything winds up on some sort of little beanie baby cat or something....

I only really got into humanoids for any kind of imaginative play, LARP or RP when I was in my teens. I had the opinion "I'm already a human, why would I want to pretend to be a human or play with humans? I deal with them every day..."
even so, when it did come into some interest, anime/manga captured me, and more narrowly lolisho. I didn't daydream about any kind of doll... fashion, budget, custom, or otherwise.

However as a fan of toy history in general now, there are a few doll channels I like to watch, and see people discuss their opinions on. But I still actually have no real opinion on things like Bratz VS Monster High or Rainbow High or LOL or American Girl ... (I like to watch BECAUSE it's so curiously alien to me, what is valuable or praised VS razed). Aesthetically, it's still a brand of femininity which does nothing for me, and the range between historical American Girl or urban fashion Bratz still doesn't encompass girls or styles I'm attracted to. I have never seen them evolve into something particularly interesting to me.

These days I do like looking at people's custom dolls, BDJ etc.... though I can't ever see myself being invested enough to pay $$$ the price. Like puppetry, I just like seeing something realized in physical materials and rotated.
