should be treated equal and have the right to play sports with boys, it isn't a good idea. Girls are injured more, the salaries are different, and they get less views than men’s sports.

Because sports were designed to represent male fitness, they play to men’s natural strengths. When boys hit puberty, their bodies produce more testosterone, while…

It’s the biological determination whether the baby has a XX or XY chromosome that overall determines the sex. It also is linked later on in the child’s life when they go through puberty and start noticing changes in their voices or their…

someone his age. While most young boys are doing their best to cause mischief and have as good a time as possible, this boy seems to have a few images of light in his life, which causes a dark foreboding over the story.
