Why Are Boys Boys And Girls Girls?
Leave a reviewThis week we’re answering questions about gender. We’ve gotten a lot of questions about the differences between boys and girls so we’re tackling them with Vanderbilt anthropologist Anna Catesby Yant and Dr. Lori Racha of UVM Medical Center. This is a frank but age-appropriate conversation about male and female bodies and about how biological sex differs from gender. We think the whole family will enjoy this episode, but you’re always free to give our episodes a listen to see if it’s right for your young ones.
