When I was 4 (i.e. more than 60 years ago), I had a "baby doll", and I was very proud of it. But the time I was 5 or 6, I wouldn't play with my friend's GI Joe, because as far as I was concerned, it was a doll.
Thank God my parent's weren't fools. They neither freaked out because the little boy played with a "baby doll", nor freaked-out when he later despised anything resembling a doll.
EDIT: Isn't it odd that --
1) There are no such things as "boys' toys" and "girls' toys";
2) And, simultaneously, if a boy prefers "girls' toys", then he is clearly a girl.
