[stylist] DBG 7 (completely new chapter)

[Judith Bron]

In any situation there are situations like your niece and nephew.  I'm not 
going into my grandchildren.  As Lori can tell you once I get started I 
don't stop.  Yes, there are exceptions, but for the most part people can 
tell the difference between boys and girls.  The closer the child gets to 
puberty, the more they act like the gender they are born into.  My boys 
played with dolls when they were little and my daughters played with cars 
and trucks.  They are all married and the boys are  definitely men and the 
girls women.
