It's very insidious. She doesn't say how they should behave, just repeats over and over how much they like pink, how feminine they are, etc.
My niece likes pink, don't get me wrong. Also loves looking in the dirt for bugs and grasshoppers! She's a mix, like most kids.

My sister and I are two years apart- she's very traditionally feminine so wasn't harmed as much by the expectation that she be so.
