Yeah, she's a cutey, but ol' Dad's standing around outside with his spear held with oh so casual competence.......I'm pretty sure that's a man, too. Westerners (including me) sometimes have trouble sexing SE Asians in old pictures. I think it's partly the gracility of the people (both from genetics and healthy lifestyles), and partly that the cultural gender cues are quite different. I have recently read how the Brittish in India used (?) to speak down of the Hindoos for seeming effeminate (to their foreign eyes)........
