What if she was a boy?

Girl wants to circumnavigate the globe. It was planned to take two years. Now that's important because apparently, it was ok for a 16 year old male to start off in November of 2008 and take only about 9 months to make the trek. That's really dangerous. If the plan involves a 2 year length of time that's probably for really bad weather conditions in certain areas at certain times of the year, which means most likely months long layovers in different countries.

I'm very sure that if it was a boy, instead of a girl, they'd be arranging commercial endorsements and a ticker-tape parade. I hate double standards like this.
