Jewel,
Did a few Boys' last month.
Did a few Girls' yesterday.
Is there a gender difference? Dunno.

That's odd - I did a few boys' this weekend and a few girls this past month. :p

Up until you said that I was sure I did - boys' is the possessive plural form of boy, i.e., boys' games (games that "belong" to boys). Girls is simply plural, i.e., more than one girl.

If, however, there was a mistake there, please let me know ASAP although, to quote Seinfeld, "not that there's anything wrong with that."

I'm assuming you did not make a mistake, and that you did several games that were played by boys, and that you also ...never mind. I was just being silly, but I really don't want to know.
