I was the major Tomboy as a child, I played sports with all males, I hated girly clothes and wore boy clothes, I hung only around boys. My toys were cars, trucks and telescopes etc. Dad would take me to footy and I'd ride on his bike. Now I'm the complete opposite, my favourite colour is pink and I'm incredibly girly and feminine. I think it is personally more inflicted by the parents but studies obviously say different. Still it would interesting to know how those studies managed to take society out of the picture as I believe society is a huge influence on human behaviour.
