Kids can be pretty badly behaved to each other before the patriachy kicks in.

Yes, but the message I took from the post is that as adults we don't always intervene in the way we should which means they don't always learn that their behaviour is bad in as many ways as it is e.g. around consent and physical boundaries.

Aye.

"Kids do the funniest things!"

And I think adults are slow to see that behaviour by a child that is tolerable or containable by an adult is less easily dealt with when it happens between two children.
