Actually I personally think that a boy who played with dolls as a child is better able to relate to a daughter as well as teaching a son that playing with dolls, raising children is something that both parents should be involved in than a father who was only involved in so called "male" activies.

My area has many stay at home dads due to high day care prices and the wives make more money. I recently saw a show on a Military family where mom was in the Army and Dad was a day care provider on base. He played dolls and cared for the children in his day care as well as every child in the community could stop by and talk to him about anything they wanted.
