Becky and Molly... a bit tomboyish?

I know Becky likes pink and Molly dolls but man of their other hobby's, interests and actions come off as rather tomboyish.

I'm still watching through the series, but so far I haven't seen them to be abnormal for women/girls. Becky's aggression seems forced, being that as a single mom she's stuck, for whatever reason, in an unnatural situation (I have seen as much firsthand). Molly, meanwhile... well, she idolizes a super heroine. I suppose that's somewhat tomboyish, but nothing she wouldn't grow out of, I expect.

Like I said, just a bit, mostly Molly, she seems too be interested in what "the guys" are into more then what the girls.

Molly is tomboyish, However shes only 6 years old in the show. So its a phase shes in. Remember she has the hots for Kit. So shes a noramal little gril at her age. Rebeeca is ahead of her time but is normal too as she has a crush on Baloo like we see in the show.

That's why I adore Molly - she's the future for the girls

What girls? I'm only a few episodes in, but as far as I can tell she doesn't have any friends except the main cast.

That's what I mean, there are no girls.

Heck for what it's worth I could see Molly at around 10-12 as an all out tomboy... out of school as I bet Becky would send her too some strict all-girls catholic madhouse.

I could see her with Kit's old sweeter, loose jeans and her hair tied back in a bushey and wild ponytail along with a bandana or something and I know most characters don't wear footwear but if she did it'll probably be 30's style All-Stars sneakers (were around then) or something but I don't know how that'll look.
And a wild free sprited expression on her face.

If anyone wants too draw it go ahead, just talk first.

Which, really, doesn't make her a tomboy. A candle doesn't get any brighter or dimmer by being the only one in the room; it is what it is. By the same token, Molly shouldn't be pushed into a mold or out of one just because she's the only girl her age in the show.

Like "The Facts of Life"? That would be a cool idea for a fanfic. But according to my idea on the Becky spinoff, Molly, an Alaskan Grizzly Bear, would most likely be Russian Orthodox Christian- and half-jewish.

Have you seen my artwork? I got Molly the way she should look in her teens.

I'm no exbert on Bears or Relgion I have too admit, just thought it sounded strict.

I did, I was kinda joking but on the Seaduck on long rang flights it\ll be pratical.

I didn't mean that exactly, I'm bad at writing what I mean.
