Surprised that no-one else has started a thread on this.
I think we are quite ' gender stereotype sensitive' in our family - I grew up as the only girl with 4 older brothers in a very male chauvinistic household and can see how this impacted on my life - some positives, some pitfalls ...
The teacher's use of 'Love' to address girls and 'Fella / Matey' for boys was something that made me wince from the start.
Good to challenge stereotypes that can be limiting, but this rather than for the sake of it ... I had 2 boys and 2 girls - a girl first and we bought her a garage and a shape sorter for her first birthday .... she wanted to play with the dolls! I guess we gave her the choice and the boys enjoyed the pram and pushchair and tea sets too!
I do wonder where the boundaries lie between striving for gender neutrality and confusing sexual identity?
