Sex role identification begins during infancy. Infants can identify body parts by the end of the first year. Preschoolers frequently engage in masturbation and sex play with peers. School-age children continue to gain awareness of their sexual identity. During this time they might continue to masturbate and engage in sex play. They might add behaviors such as hugging and kissing members of the opposite sex. Adolescent sex role identification is largely influenced by sexual maturation and trying out or assuming a sex role.Health Promotion and Maintenance
