Great things about GIRLS

[Baldie's Mum]

Whats so great about girls???

[tonyamanda]

I think both sexes are awesome!! one thing i love about girls is the clothes.. I love pink myself so mostly everything i buy for my daughter is pink..


Can i ask why you are asking this question?

[RedPanda]

Girls are lovely. Just like little boys. My boys and girl are just beautiful :goodvibes: Girls are not "high maintenance' or "princesses" unless you make them that.

[Maybelline]

Everything is great about girls!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!..I feel so lucky to have a baby girl......

Can i ask why you are asking this question?

I thought these 2 threads (1 on girls and 1 on boys) could help others who are experiencing gender dissapointment.

Just trying to share the love a bit! :bee:

[RedPanda]

That's a nice idea Ains! :thumbsup:

[overitand36]

most of us here are girls and well when comparing us to most men well their is no comparison

we know we are the better sex could you imagine them handling child birth

but when it comes to babies they are both wonderful

[1+1=5]

Everything!

[smog]

pigtails

[Lemonhead]

Id say the clothing...thats it really for me :laughing: after overdosing in pinkness I think Id be pretty over it.

[Mum2Mimi]

Girls have the prettiest clothes and you can do their hair all pretty :bee: I love my DD

[RoarsomeMum]

It's such a hard question! Cause, yep, Everything! (But I imagine everything is great about Boys too!)

the only difference is the genitals (and It just seemed well very odd and just wrong to scream VAGINA! as the biggest asset!!!!:o:laughing::no:)

So Hair, that is a good thing (when you actually know how to do it, not like Poor Roar Roar and her Crooked Parts and pigtails!)

jewelry!!! oh that rocks!

The pretty pink ruffly stuff and the lace and the ribbons and all that Jazz

Oh, and the Ability to STUN others with the attitude of a 14 year old boy coming from a tiny Ultra feminine angelic little face.

She ROCKS! (even when she is being a menace, I can snuggle into her ultra soft still baby hair and think, you, My daughter, are the most wondrous creature in the entire world. I LOVE YOU ROAR!)

[SorenLorensen]

they are so great i went back for seconds....and you have experienced first hand just how adorable and perfect my 2 are :p

honestly though, i have 2 and they are so different. DD1 is very placid and DD2 is a lunatic, neither are the 'stereo type' girl...they are just 2 different wee little peeps that i love :cloud9:

[tonyamanda]

I thought these 2 threads (1 on girls and 1 on boys) could help others who are experiencing gender dissapointment.

Just trying to share the love a bit! :bee:

great idea!!!! :yes:
I also love calling her a princess :cloud9:

[Mrs Nietzsche]

No idea whether it means anything but both my girls have been fantastic sleepers, better teethers than DS AND haven't bitten me when breastfeeding.

Also when they are grown up, having daughters I think can tend to keep a family close.

[Liddy]

Everything :)

[heatherm]

i only have a boy but when i go clothes shopping for him i cant help but notice that there is twice as much girls range as boys.
when we concieve #2 i hope to have a little princess but i have a feeling it will be another prince for us.

[elleandsam]

DH always said he wanted a boy, but DD won him over right from the start, now he's hoping for another girl.

What's best about girls? Apart from all the pink ;) I guess it's those sweet smiles and cute giggles, but that just comes with being a baby.

[bellangel3]

So hard to pin point!!! I LOVE having 2 little girls!!!
The clothes, the fairy, princess, dress up parties they get invited to, dancing, doing their hair, shopping with them, how they want to be exactly like me and do everything I do... well at the mo anyway, so cute!
I would love a little boy one day though!

[MrsBeee]

For now it's all about the clothes.
But I can't wait for the 'grown up' stuff. Her first boyfriend. Seeing her in her wedding dress. Seeing the look of love in her eyes when she has her own little baby to look after, and knowing that she 'gets' it, what it is to be a mum and how much you love your little baby.
I'm sure I will love my boy (if and when he comes along) and can do all those things with him too, but for now I'm loving my little girl :bee:

[Ruby Slippers]

I Love both of your Threads LINK (http://www.bubhub.com.au/community/forums/showthread.php?p=4684322#post4684322)
I Love my Dd's ages 13 and 10 years old ,
I Loved dressing them up when they were little ,
I Love watching T.v and movies with them ,
and now the teenager signs are showing :eek:
already got her AF :eek: and now wants make-up ,
next is boyfriends but not until 16 or maybe 20 :laughing: (can I hide out for a while):rolleyes:
parenthood is hard but I Love it .

[TinyStar]

I love how much she cares for her friends and how important friendship is to her.

Her creativity

Playing make believe forever, normally shops or house or fairies.

Going to dance class and singing all the pop songs with her little friends and then getting all dressed up for the end of year concert and being so excited.

Letting her take control on the clothing front. There is NO choice for me, DD will pick whatever she likes and has done so since she could walk. Her taste is better than mine anyway - she even bids on stuff from ebay.

I luv my girl and my boy.

[zenifa]

I have two girls, so clearly biased but I lurve girls.
Mine are both very bright, thoughtful, caring, gentle and very loving and affectionate yet also very strong (willed), independent, confident, assertive, determined and capable.

They have a lovely nuturing side to them, which I see with other children, animals and each other and they are very comfortable in themselves. They are very loving, bonded and connected to DH, and I and their grandparents and extended family, and love to show their love and affection in thoughtful ways, despite their young age. They love to play all sorts of games, including gender neutral stuff, but despite our best efforts they are still very girlie.

They love to sing, dance and put on 'shows' for us every day, they are very creative and love all sorts of crafts, creating all the time. They are interested in how things are made, how they grow and see relationships and connections in everything eg animal families, robot families, etc.

They love pink and purple, dresses, skirts, hair clips, jewellery, shoes, clothes, barbie dolls, babies, prams, handbags and dress ups involving fairies and princesses and unicorns, rainbows, ballerinas etc.

I never had a preference when I was pregnant, and found out what I was having and was never disappointed to be having a girl (neither time). I am a feminist and love having a close relationship with my girls and passing on the wisdom that I and my other female friends and relatives can pass onto them and to encourage them to be anything they want to be.

Girls are amazing, if only that was recognised all over the world!!

[mum2bubba]

Clothes are easier to find and they have nicer outfits.

[love2190]

I have one daughter. She is quite good looking. She loves red colour cloths. She like singing and dancing. She is really qute.

[SCORPIOGEMINI]

I can go on and on and on about having girls, they are wonderful, I am looking forward to the day that we can go to a cafe and have a cappucino together, baby cinos for now, very cute.
They sure are daddy's little princesses!!

Me:valentine:Hubby
DD1-7yrs:cloud9: DD2-5yrs:smiliedance: Blessed Twice:yes: TTC#3:babydust2:

[miasmumma]

as previously mentioned princesses, fairies, dressups, twirling around, pink and purple, braids and pigtails, ballet flats, rediculous amounts of affection, long attention span, socially aware and wanting to please, dresses, early knowledge of who belongs to who in terms of family (mums, dads, uncles, aunts, cousins), remembering where the gifts came from, cute swimmers in summer, tutu's, gold bracelets and above all the fact that women hold the world together and that one day thanks to her parent/s our daughters will be one of those strong, independant and caring women.:flowerz:

[IndigoJ]

I dont have a girl but i want one because i want to have the same relationship with my daughter that mum had with me. We would stay up at night talking about all sorts of stuff, you still could with a boy but might be a bit different.

I also want to be able to be in the birthing room with my daughter, if she would like that :)

[dillydAlly]

You are raising a future mummy and teaching her how to be a good mummy! :yes:

[RmumR]

pretty clothes
doing her hair all nice and her appreciating it
mine is a real girly girl and loves pink shoes and lacey socks the works
painting nails - yes i know she's not quite 3 but she loves it
how mothering she is - takes her stuffed bunny in the car to daycare and leaves it in her carseat and tells it to be a good girl and she'll come back later

[SassyMummy]

Knowing that you're more likely to have a closer relationship with the grandchildren she gives you - a lot of women tend to go to their OWN family for that sort of thing, rather than their in-laws... so you've kinda got that on your side, so long as your relationship with your daughter is good.

You can also make a friend in your daughter as she grows - I would love to spend time at the movies with my mother, and being girls, we generally like the same films and stuff, so it gives me someone to watch girly flicks with.

They're more likely to have partners you like (so long as they're hetero). I think it's easier to be wooed by your child's male partner (when you're a hetero female), than it is to be wooed by your child's female partner. I think I'd probably feel less, "That b*tch isn't good enough for my child!" than I would if she was a boy with a girlfriend.

I have 4 DD's and there is 1 thing that they can all do well and that is throw really good tantrums:yes:

I dont know whether anyone else on here has teenage dd's but that would have to the most testing time for any parent, my now 20yr old and 19yr olds have the worst fights over anything from clothes to makeup/hair accessories and money:banghead:
it can be very daunting having teenage dd's and I will have to go through it again with my 10 and 8 yr olds:gloomy:

Sorry I stuffed that 1 up, I didn't add any nice things:o

[Rach77]

We are expecting 2 more little girls next month and I could not be more excited :D Ava is so excited about having 2 little sisters and it is super cute I can not wait to see how she is around them because she is very motherly and takes her favorite doll everywhere with us.

I love the relationship we have and living half way around the world from my mum I really hope I can have the type of relationship I always had with her with all my little girls.

Teenage years may be a little scary I am praying already that my girls are as easy as my parents had it with me.

I love that my little girl is so affectionate and loves telling me many times a day at ant time for no particular reason that she loves me.

I love playing dress ups with her and shopping for clothes and toys and being able to indulge my love for all things Disney that she has picked up.

That we already have our girls nights when daddy is away to not make her go to bed and we stay up late and watch her favorite movie Aristocats.

Decorating her room when we found out she was a girl! So much fun!

Seeing her bond so well with DH is precious. He was actually the one that a girl while I didn't really mind I did like the idea of having a little girly girl but I grew up with a brother 8 years younger than me and saw the way he worshiped my mum and it was so cute and I didn't mind but DH got his little princess.

We have been so blessed to have such an amazing a placid easy going little girl considering we are both rather hyperactive still but I guess having that energy will come in handy next month. She is very talkative and like a little grown up because she has grown up with more adults round her than children and people who meet her a often surprised by just how grown up she is carrying a conversation.

I think the best thing about girls is all the gorgeous clothes to choose from and all the adorable hairstyles you can do on them (if/when they let you that is! :)

[suzieduck]

i teach at a boy's school, which has given me a bit of time to think about the differences btw the sexes, some of this is a bit morbid....

-girls often better readers and communicators at a young age
- girls are increasingly doing better academically then boys
- girls are more accepting of academic achievement in their peers (girls can be smart and cool at school)
- girls less likely to be the victim of a violent attack or the perpetrator
- girls less likely to bottle up their feelings. Have lower rates of suicide
- girls are less likely to have drug, alcohol and gambling issues
- girls have a better chance of playing football for australia or whatever the sport
- girls probably relate better to their mothers
- girls more likely to share interests with their mothers
- girls are less likely to be autistic or dyslexic
- girls have the option of children whatever their relationship situation
- girls are more nurturing...?

[Liddy]

I love having my girls, infact just recently, I have felt that if I have anymore kids I would like them to be girls :) I love my girls, they're just growing up so beautifully.

People always tell me girls are hard to raise and difficult in their teenage years but I think they're equal they just are likely to have different issues.

But I love raising girls :)

[LightyClan]

I love my girls after having three little princess and dealing with lots of pink, dresses and barbie's we are now having a boy. Not to sure about it after having the one gender for 6 years there will be alot of change :)

[scarymarygoldfish]

*Young girls are lovely and placid.
*It's ok if they want to do 'boy' stuff also.
*They will form beautiful relationships with their friends and be more 'in tune' with other people's feelings.


I desperately wanted a boy, but am SOOOOOO glad we got a DD instead.

[MrJones&Me]

Thank god for this thread!

I hate pink, and I'm not a fan of about 90% of the girls clothes out there... so this thread has made me feel a bit better about growing a little lady :goodvibes:
