AO2
there is clear evidence that a change in perception will lead to a change in behaviour. Smith and Lloyds study - dressed a baby in gender specific clothes and watched how it was treated spending on if the pp thought it was a boy or a girl

AO2
on the other hand some studies have also found nature to be more important than nurture.Reiner and Gearhart studies 16 bio males who had been reassigned as girls. by 16 10/16 had been changed back to boys showing it is rare for nurture to beat nature

AO2
further evidence of nature being more important is when luxe studied children and animals under 2 and found a strong preference in sex appropriate toys

AO2
money and ehrhardt took research from abnormal people so it is hard to generalise their results
