This is one of the things we do in fandom, wouldn't you say?

Playing with things our way, reclaiming them, sometimes feminizing them (whatever that means) - particularly things made for boys...

The original(?) story is cool too, click to read.

That's cool!
I admit I'm very suspicious of things that are considered natural - kids are generally gendered before they're even born ("She's gonna be our little princess", you know, "gonna be a big strong man"), and between them often getting stronger reactions to gendered behavior (whether good or bad), and with on top of that people often noticing gendered behavior more than other things that don't mean anything specific in our societies - I'm not sure it's possible to determine what's natural and what's not. OTOH, I don't know! The "everything is taught by society" approach is also not something I completely subscribe to... DK!

It's so sweet that you imaginnned their lashes!
I was impressed that they were apparently sleeping on their backs - makes sense!
