A girl I knew in the fifth grade told me something that I believed for a long time. Think about it. Once being told this, one would have few occaasions to hear it refuted. What she told me was that girls have only one kind of feeling telling them when they need to "go to the bathroom". So therefore, she told me, girls never know in advance whether they have to do "number one" or "number two", or both. They have to look in the potty to see what came out, in order to know what they did, so the story went.
