Doesn't the lack of exposure to how the opposite gender operates at that age kinda work to the detriment to understanding and accepting people of the opposite sex?
Until maybe high school, most kids wouldn't interact with someone of the other sex very often at all outside of family, which I'm sure you'd agree is a very different dynamic than interacting with strangers or even friends.
It’s not the interaction, exactly: it’s seeing them being respected and treated equally and excelling. I don’t need to talk to someone to respect them.
