Girls are a mystery in this house.
Of course, I'm a "girl", but that doesn't count because I'm just "Mom".
Whenever a commercial comes on that is clearly geared toward girls, the boys are disgusted and insulted that they have to sit through something so gross.
They all cover their eyes with their hands or a pillow and exclaim, "Eeeuu!" Sleepy has even gone to the point of putting his hands all over the TV or standing in front of the horror flick to hide it until it is over.
Occasionally, I will also hear them say contemplatively, "I don't like girls."
Sleepy isn't as harsh about it as his older brother, Grumpy. He even asks if they will ever have a sister someday.
Grumpy nipped that one in the bud.
We were sitting at the dinner table when Sleepy asked his hypothetical question. Grumpy replied before I got the chance.
"We are never having a sister. Not ever, ever, ever."
Well, I guess that's it, then.
