If you see your daughter playing with a truck, do you think that's normal, or do you decide she is crying out to be a boy, and go from there?

My first daughter, when 2 or so, was so into tools and similar for play, people thought we had a boy and a girl when they saw our play room. She routinely saw Dad with tools fixing or building and she wanted to do the same in her play.

The second daughter, would have no part of that. As girly as she could be. Only Baby dolls and kitchen stuff was the play toys she wanted.

Now that oldest is very girly, into fashion and dance, cannot tolerate getting in the dirt.

The other, now 12, is far more into being outdoors, camping etc, but horses are now her love.

You let her play with the truck, maybe add a light touch of encouragement to play with girl toys. But if she pushes back against that suggestion, don’t get bent out of shape with it and let her be a “tom boy” she will no doubt grow out of it.

But you never plant the suggestion in her head that she is something she is not, which is what a libtard parent would do.
