And no, I don't mean "girls don't like conflict," that's bubkis. I mean "boys on average prefer physical conflict and girls on average prefer social conflict." Boys love seeing stufc like the Duel of Melons because it's an intense awesome battle between two armored warriors but girls would be more invested in the reason WHY the Kureshima brothers were fighting, why they were fighting and how they are handling the Cain and Abel conflict.
Obviously over time kids mature and can appreciate the social interaction (men watching SoL and mahou shojo anime) and conflict for the sake of conflict because it kicks ass (a gamergirl going full agro and pwning n00bs in her Overwatch death match livestream). But initially, kids naturally gravitate to their gender's particular conflict camp and you can't really forcibly change that. Just make something good that bridges the gaps and hope for the best.
Ask Matrixbeast, he knows that idea well~
I also have a video by Christina Hoff Summers on standby.

I know we're past the era of the barbie figures of the girl rangers, but they're still just refusing to give them normal body types.
They are refusing to give normal body types to everyone.
