My dolls unnerved my Father who forced me to join a football team.
The team tossed me after the first game because I stopped in the
middle of a play to pull up my socks.
I hate the feeling of droopy socks; but back to the dolls:

I had Barbie and Skipper.
I also had Ken, and GI Joe.
GI Joe was the doll for boys who played with dolls in the closet.
Joe and Ken had a one-off in a foxhole and it drove Skipper to suicide.
She had a secret crush on Joe.

I started playing with digital dolls with The Simsand eventually joined one of the online worlds of the metaverse.
I liked to play with dolls when I was a kid.
I still do.
