Typically, boys and girls ages 6 to 9 years often touch genitals at home, stand too close to others, and try to look at persons when they are nude. By contrast, children ages 10 to 12 years, who are actually more interested in (and know more about) sex, limit their behavior to looking at nudity in magazines, television, and on the Internet.
