"One thing i really remember about kindergarten was when i drew self portraits/ drawings of my teachers, they were always blonde hair + blue eyed
Because that's the only barbie figures there were in most animations too.
I don't think I ever had any asian dolls.
And it also didn’t help that light colours were the only “flesh” colour available."
