I had a few Barbies and one Jem doll. No Kens. Jem was significantly taller than Barbie, so she was my Ken. I don't think it turned me gay (as if that's a bad thing anyway!)
But, I actually didn't like Barbies as much as My Little Ponies because the Barbies would always kick their tables over and that pissed me off - I could never make their legs bend sufficiently so they'd have to sit REALLY far away from the tables. So I just used all of the Barbie furniture, accessories, and clothes on the Ponies instead.
It was funny, because I had a very stable childhood (other than moving a lot) and I would have really bratty Pony kids when I played with arguments and all of that. But my friend across the street had divorced parents and a dad who trafficked drugs across the Canadian border and her Pony kids were always well-behaved and happy.
