"virtually the preserve of girls"

[edit]

In the U.S. in the 1960s, the clapping and jump-rope rhymes were already pretty much girls-only, but Ring-around-the-rosie and London Bridge were fairly gender-neutral. Has this changed in any major way? AnonMoos (talk) 00:37, 19 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]

It was much the same in the UK at the same period. I did hear a paper that indicated it had all become the preserve of girls, but I am not sure where it was published. I will try to see if I can track it down for the article.--SabreBD (talk) 07:34, 19 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]
