But saying it's learned behavior doesn't explain why two sisters growing up in the same house with the same parents, stimuli, books, TV, and other influences can be polar opposites in this area. My 7-year-old granddaughter has been rough-and-tumble since infancy and is still all tomboy; her 5-year-old sister has always been attracted to bling and is now sparkly princess through and through. I've seen many similar contrasts in other families. At least part of it has to be innate. Paula

(I heard an NPR report last week that said in earlier times, boys in Western societies were dressed in pink and girls in blue. Pink was a softer version of red, a robust, masculine color, and blue was considered peaceful and sedate.) There must be tremendous social pressure for girls to like pink.
