Could be because I did karate as a kid? Any time there was a kid that people couldn't figure out if were a boy or a girl I could tell because of how they moved?

Umm...

There's practically zero sexual dimorphism at that age, you can't "just tell" that it's a boy or girl without peeking. The only thing we really have to go on is grooming (haircut) and clothing, which clearly indicate female.

So, would you say you were an expert on japanese cultu-I mean, karate culture?

What does this have to do with culture? I took karate as a kid starting when I was 8. In karate class there would kids as young as 3 there. And one thing that's common in kids is androgyny. So one thing I used to figure out if an androgynous kid was a boy or a girl was how they moved. There is just something in how a person moves that most of the time gives away their sex. It is either because of the slight body differences kids have even before puberty or because the boys would subconsciously imitate older boys and girls would subconsciously imitate older girls in regards to movement.

Well... my 1 old year nephew has hair a bit longer than normal, and a lot of people mistake him for a girl.

At least use a better gif, yours is horribly cropped.

Looks like all of you that doubted charsace need to come back and give him an apology, ahahaha!

I doubt they will though.

When you write your guide on arm & shoulder movements, I'll be your first buyer because you just sold me.

Hahaha - even before this topic I still have to laugh at this post.

females have wider hips, forearms are angled outwards(to compensate for the wide hips). It's not far fetched to assume this would affect shoulder movement. I'm not sure how large these differences are at a young age though.

Can't believe Charsace is redeemed. Glad I read whole thread before confidently declaring his fuckery.

Wait until the baby has grown up and let he or she decide how he or she wants to be perceived by the general populous

We still can talk about the biological sex, yes?

"Nice boy you have there, ma'am!"
