OR: of course i was joking. i have a dd and 2 ds. the question is flawed in that OP is setting up expectations based on gender which is wrong wrong wrong. just let your children bloom and find out who they are and what their differences are. 2 girls can be just as different as a boy and a girl. it's a silly silly question.
