At what age do boys......

[tiggerlover]

....stop thinking girls are icky?

I don't know. My son has liked girls ever since he was old enough to realize there was a difference, about age 2. He has never been through the "girls are icky" stage.

I can't make a generalization, but I do think that most boys tend to be attracted to girls when they hit puberty, which most likely means when they are pre-teenagers. That is probably around 10-13.

I hope I answered your question!


PM me for more information!

Love,

I don't know. My husband is 47 and he's pretty pissed at me right now

Thats how the males are in our family.

My son is 7 and girls are still pretty icky to him and his friends.

Just posted a thread about my DS having a crush...he had just turned 11 when it hit him, and hit him hard! He has liked her since September...8 months is a LONG time for an 11 year old. I think generally the 4th or 5th grade seems to be a turning point.

I agree with the 10-13 age range.

 

[LukenDC]

I'm 33 and I still find girls icky. Of course, that may be because I'm gay.

DS #1 - eleven, DS #2 - from birth. After my brother's wedding he would chase the girls around preschool trying to talk them into being his "wedding girl" at his wedding birthday party.

My DH still thinks Im icky. But my kids think Im ickyer

 

[marydmjj]

I'd say mid-way through 5th grade

 

[MinnieM3]

Most of my 3rd graders still think the opposite sex is icky, although some of the boys and gals "don't mind" each other. It's kinda cute. By 5th grade there's some major crushes! (another reason I stay in 3rd grade)

That reminds me of when my atheist brother was visiting last summer and my 15yo son was questioning the existence of God. I finally told my son that I will love him no matter what, even if he ends up being a gay atheist (another uncle is a gay atheist). My brother almost choked over my bluntness since our mother always beat around the bush and wouldn't discuss anything like that. It kind of took the wind out of my son's sails.

My husband told me that he never thought girls were icky, and that he always felt attracted to them. A few of his stories. My husbands family is from Germany, so they would make frequent trips. They allow topless sunbathing, which was a common practice in parks/beaches. Well, my MIL would say that even as a toddler he would try to follow these topless ladies, or set up camp next to them with a big grin on his face. Second story, my MIL caught him hiding in the closet with his next door neighbor french kissing! The crazy part is they were only 5!

I thought it was a littel older but my DS8 has a certain interest for Brooke Burns (i think thats right) from Dog Eat Dog... I have to change the channel or he gets tube lock or is that b**b lock?
