Wow this is deep!
Well to be modern lol, I will apply this to my grandson and the way his parents are raising him and reply..
1. No, he is being raised with an observance and respect for nature, his fellow humans and the world around him, just as a female child would be, had they had one.
2. No, I believe his parents would only ever have wanted their child, regardless of gender, to feel secure and happy in the knowledge that their best is all anyone who loves them expects of them.
3. No, my grandson, at age 7, loves to help his Mum with cooking and cleaning and other traditionally female stuff, and they love to shoot the breeze about practically anything.
And yeah, I'm proud of him and wish that every child in this world could have the love, security, health and happiness that he has - they all deserve it.

They sound like great parents, serene.
What I wonder is if they had two kids, a boy and a girl, would the boy be able to date an an earlier age than the girl?

1)I should hope so. Men have aggression to manage. He needs to be trained to channel hs aggression to avoid all kinds of psychological and emotional problems. Aggresssion is a man's medicine.
2)Boy and girls have generalised different strengths and weaknesses - so yes you would have different expectations. If my Daughter cant kick a ball straight, so be it, if my Son can't kick a ball straight it will get him beaten up at school and the girls will like him less. So a decent Father trains the spackiness out of his Son.
3) Yes, I'd stop physically disciplining my Daughter at a younger age.

Yes, I'd say they're raised differently. My seven year old grandson doesn't wear pink tights, nor does my 5 year old granddaughter wear a sports team t-shirt very often. 
Expectations are similar, but if my grandson isn't interested in learning how to sew I'm certainly not going to impose it upon him. Likewise, if my granddaughter isn't interested in lifting weights.
Yes, they are treated differently in many respects. If he's invited to go with his older brothers, she is not always included. Nor does he go along to the salon to get his nails done!

Well said.I grew up having to wear pink tights and a little skirt,it was hell. I was so relieved when i got to 16yrs old,and i could swop them for a nice dress and a pair of high heels.Expectations are similar, but if my grandson isn't interested in learning how to sew I'm certainly not going to impose it upon him.
