[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This was me growing up. I preferred playing with boys and being outside. I had 4 older brothers so I was comfortable around boys. I hated Barbies, dress up, and playing with dolls. The things the girls seemed to be interested in sounded so boring to me. I wore my hair short and my brothers' hand-me-downs. People often mistook me for a boy.

I know this isn't the case for everyone, but I eventually grew out of it. I'm now married to a man and a mom to  3 kids.

I still love sports. I can throw a spiral football and know more about sports than many guys, including my husband. I still hate shopping, dressing up, and I wear my hair short. I've never been attracted to women or wanted to become a man. The world is big enough for all types.[/quote]

Sounds like you didn't grow out of it.  Sounds like the message is all women don't have to look the same and like the same things and this can carry on their whole life.   And don't assume a person is gay just because they don't like stereotypical things for their gender.  [/quote]
