On the flip side, I remember being like 8ish and my friend told me that I shouldn't say "cheers" to say thank you, because that's what boys say (indeed, I had picked it up from my brother and dad). Instead, I should say "ta" (or just "thanks"). That is so incredibly gender, I can scarcely believe it happened.
