I used to work. At a job. Glorious days, those. A co-worker/salesman was in the office one day, and the two of us were watching a young lady walk with her child perched on her hip. He turned to me and said:
"Isn't it amazing? Can you imagine, as a man, walking at least a quarter of a mile with a child on your hip?"
"Yes."
"You're a better man than I."
"That was never in question."
But, recently, my youngest has found an activity that makes me wish that I were a woman taking care of him.
He head butts my crotch. Not just once either. He positions himself, usually with a book in hand, but these attacks can come from nowhere, and proceeds to launch himself, Ram-Man style, repeatedly into my genital area.
For those that know, it's like a two-inch punch to the nadgers. It hurts.
The most memorable kick I have to that location was arrived at via Brandy Dixon, who was simply demonstrating her technique to a friend, spun, and planted the toe of her boot right where I wished she hadn't. I think I was waving to someone at the time.
Nothing like this. I recovered from Brandy Dixon's kick, and went on to father children. If she'd had a jackhammer I'm sure I wouldn't have sired a replica of a jackhammer.
I think I entered that bit about Brandy remembering that, as a boy, one of my fondest pursuits was studying anatomy to discover how to inflict pain. Turns out that women can be hurt pretty bad that way, but you have to be the Luke Skywalker of Pain to home in on a target that's a tad smaller than 2 meters.

Boys, from observation, seem to be a little more physical, but that's a generality.
I wasn't terribly physical, but I did focus a certain dynamism into my RPing (table dancing, hystrionics, and maybe somethings best left unsaid).
I also learned anatomy, a valuable skill for someone pursuing a degree in a medical field, through my efforts.
Girls tend to be the twisted, evil dark that one associates with a good thriller. Guys are more hack 'n' slash.
But if either is given a focus, or finds a focus, for that (I've always thought that a drama club would've helped me), then there's a good chance that things'll go well.
Adolesence, in particular, is a time of hormone surges and self-doubt... that's when most of my "gotta kill something" urges hit. I think most people have them, along with the "I should kill myself" urges, and don't act on them.
You're probably safe.
