Boys vs. Girls

I thought I would start this entry with a small rhyme, one of those rhymes you’ve probably heard at least parts of before but couldn’t place it with the whole thing…

What are little boys made of?
Snaps and snails,
And puppy dog tails,
That’s what little boys are made of.

What are little girls made of?
Sugar and spice,
And everything nice,
That’s what little girls are made of.

I’ve been trying to figure out if being made of snaps and snails and puppie dog tails is a good thing or a bad thing.  Puppies are cute, and their tails are fun, right?
