Girly Boys: boys who have gendered girl interests and boys on girl's teams.

Yesterday Linda had lunch with a female friend of ours. She has twin boys and there are three and a half now, I think moving towards four. And one of the boys is much like one of Linda's nephews: if it has wheels it is good, trucks, trains, things that have wheels, things that can be raced or smash against each other or fight each other. The other boy like dolls, has dolls and likes make-up and just got his fingernails (and toenails?) painted with his mom. To his credit the father was surprised but said nothing (and probably not THAT surprised).
