Not in a negative way but to the realization that as a child I also played with white dolls. But it was because there were no black doll in the part of the world where I grew up. We only saw black dolls when I became a teenager and had long since stopped playing with dolls.

As for braiding it was a fascination for me and my friends although we called it plaiting back then and we didn’t think a white doll look too good with its hair braided (plaited).
