I can tell you, too, that boys are sometimes more physically ... assertive than they really want to be because it seems like that's what's necessary to get a girl to take them seriously as bf material and stick around.
Aarrgh. That's one I hadn't heard, probably because most of what I read is aimed at girls and their parents. Our oldest daughter is 13, oldest son is 10, so we have to do the Teenage Girl thing first!
