What if little Suzie is not interested in playing with dolls, or wearing dresses?
Preferring to climb trees and play baseball with the boys?

Why can't a girl be a healthy girl without a manmade doll?
Children love to climb, thats why they love playgrounds with monkey bars and all of that.
Since this sort of play is what children engage in, a little girl preferring not to wear a dress would be common sense. Its much harder to climb a tree in a dress, even dangerous.
Lets ask AI the obvious question,
What say you AI, climbing a tree in Pants vs Dress
Climbing a tree is easier in pants rather than a dress. Pants provide better protection and flexibility, which are crucial for tree climbing. They are designed to be more durable and comfortable for physically demanding activities like climbing.
A dress, on the other hand, is not designed for such activities and can restrict movement, making it more difficult and less safe to climb a tree.
So maybe like most little children, with growing bones and muscles (including little girls) want to climb a tree a little more then they desire to just sit there and look pretty in a dress. I know I did, besides, who are we looking so pretty for? The boys in our young age bracket would be looking for any pretty girls in dresses for at least another decade, so what would be the point of them in the context of a growing childs playtime? I am a grown married woman and I think I can count on both hands the number of times I have worn a dress.
And baseball is just hitting a ball with a stick and making it to all the bases and then to home plate, its a fun game, I played on a girls softball team when I was in fourth grade.
