Like a few people have mentioned I used to think that Dogs were the boys and Cats were the girls. I think this belief came from the various cartoons I watched as a child such as "Lady and the Tramp" where the girl puppies all looked like Lady and the boys looked like Tramp and other cartoons that used a similar idea. Walt Disney has a lot to answer for. :)
