Research confirms that parents and teachers discourage the emer. gence of physical and direct aggression in girls early on while de skirmishing of boys is either encouraged or shrugged off° In one a. ample, a 1999 University of Michigan study found that girls were told to be quiet, speak softly, or use a "nicer" voice about three times more often than boys, even though the boys were louder.

Covert aggression isn't just about not getting caught; half of it is looking like you'd never mistreat someone in the first place. The sugar-and-spice image is powerful, and girls know it. They use it to fog the radar of otherwise vigilant teachers and parents.
