Girls are fragile and they know how to use it to their advantage at an early age.

So true. My 3 year old has been known to weep when she doesn't get her way. Not cry; weep. Big, silent tears, quivering lip, resigned pout.

At 2, we'd ask which shirt she wanted to wear, and she'd say, "blue. Like my eyes." Then smile and bat her long lashes to say, ain't I cute? She is and she knows it.
