Mum's the Word: Yes we were little girls, but we were just kids!

GROWING up in Ontario, Canada, in the 1980s, I was really largely unaware of the difference between boys and girls, I know that doesn’t sound realistic but it was true.

This was because my parents encouraged my sister and I to play with the things we liked. We liked lego, hot wheel cars, and Star Wars and we loved playing our Atari video games. We adored stuffed animals but could take or leave dolls.
