#1 Most, but not all, of her friends are boys. The other girls have assigned her to infiltrate the enemy camp & report back to them.

#2 My sister was also a tomboy who was frequently thought to be a boy, which frustrated her greatly until she hit adolescence and people stopped making that mistake. People can be idiots.

#4 So the invasive 'polite society' is forcing a 7 year girl to make an uninformed life choice.

#5 The proper answer is "Are you insane?".

#6 It's the media. They want you to believe that everyone is perverted just like they are.

#7 Daughter likes and studies bugs, hunting frogs, baits and pulls her own hooks, gets in the mud, likes archery, groups her BBs in a quarter at 10 yards, find The Hobbit (the book) more interesting than pretty princess crap. Call her anything other than the sweetest girl ever and she may put you in a double-chicken wing - I'll take pictures and wipe my eyes with pride.

And her requirements before getting her own phone - be able to: mow the yard. clean the gutters. change a tire. Each one all on her own, me spotting, but she gathers and returns the equipment. Then it will be a corded rotary phone until she proves she can maintain grades and chores and keep a numbers list or even better memorize numbers.

And pardon me if I refuse the advice from a caste of society which prides itself on graduating architects who cannot disassemble an office max desk with an allen wrench.

I do not think I need to get into what happens if I catch someone straight bald face lying to my children.
