How is gender stereotyping still relevant?

I think in this day and age of infertility issues and whatnot, one should feel lucky to have a child, and should feel really, really lucky to have two. Of any gender. Seriously.
I see so many couples struggle and go for endless treatments and therapies and it's very emotionally and physically taxing for them. I'm pretty sure they don't have any questions of the sort - boy or girl. They would be ever so happy just to have a baby.
So for once, can we stop with the discussion on boys vs. girls? They are kids. They are born with their individual personalities, irrespective of gender. Let's respect and nurture that rather than doing any gender stereotyping.
Our focus, in my opinion, should be to raise happy, healthy and well adjusted people. That's all.
