Who believes that Exposure to chemical may feminize boys play?
Preschool boys exposed in utero to high levels of certain chemicals called phthalates (prounounced “thal-lates”) may be less likely to play with male-typical toys and games, such as trucks and play fighting, according to a small pilot study published in the International Journal of Andrology. Girls’ play behavior was not associated with phthalate levels in their mothers, the study found.
