HERE THE COMPLETE QUESTION:

You observe children on a school playground and find some girls playing sports with boys, but almost no boys playing jump rope with girls. Why?

A. Boys are more likely to get hurt playing jump rope.

B. Children are mocked for crossing gender lines, and boys are mocked more than girls.

C. Teachers enforce gender norms and officially discourage boys from playing with girls.

D. Boys are more naturally suited for the physical competition of sports, while girls excel at the sort of cooperation that goes into activities like jump rope.

E. Parents have made sure to instruct their children to avoid any cross-gender playground activities, because they fear that it will lead to their children being labeled abnormal.

The correct answer is:

B. Children are mocked for crossing gender lines, and boys are mocked more than girls.

Explanation:

According to the Handbook of the Sociology of Gender written by Barbara J. Risman, ‎Carissa M. Froyum, and William J. Scarborough published in 2018, there are some common social patterns that have been identified in children's behavior regarding the crossing gender activities.

The authors explain how it is normally seen that "tomboys", which is the term used for children to refer to the girls who like to play boys games, are going to leave that behavior after a certain time, normally when they reach the age to begin dating boys. For tomboys the fact of playing boys games is considered a simple phase that they will go through. Nevertheless, the case is different for "sissies", who are the boys who like to play girls activities; for them the fact is not considered just a phase in life, it is more like a high price boys have to pay, even if they reach the age in which they are not over involved with girls.
