2. Boy, you WERE fortunate

My son was born in 1971 and I was SO glad to have a boy because I literally DID NOT KNOW HOW TO RAISE A GIRL in that time.

However, some of my efforts at gender-neutral child-rearing failed. I kept buying him soft stuffed toys, he kept preferring boy things. In fact, the first time he ever even saw a toy car, he picked them up and went "zoom, zoom." I don't know where he could've gotten that. I tried to get him to watch Mr. Rogers and Captain Kangaroo, but he preferred Wild Kingdom (and indeed grew up to get his degree in zoology).

LOL. There's only so much you can do sometimes.
