... of sex differences during play. The aim of this paper is to critically review the recent literature in this field and determine whether or not sex differences occur in play. If sex differences occur, the possible reasons for this occurrence will also be examined. Review of the Research Section Maccoby (1990) summarized a number of studies to support her hypothesis that suggests different social situations may either heighten or suppress sex differences in behaviour.

... by Jan Reynolds, “In the Amazon, the Himalaya, the Sahara, and other far corners of the world I saw newborns either nursed, held, or carried in some fashion by their mothers from the moment of birth� (Reynolds p.21).
