Did anyone else used to think Rabbit and Piglet were girl when they watched this at younger ages?

You're not alone. Seriously, I thought that at first too about Rabbit and Piglet! In my youthful days of naivety, as an American, I presumably thought gardening to be a rather feminine activity done mostly by women (referring to Rabbit). It wasn't until later when I realized that gardening is quite a common practice especially among men in Great Britain; the 'Winnie the Pooh" author, A. A. Milne, being from England, cultural assumptions aside. In Piglet's case specifically, he is just so darn affectionately innocent in his attitude and demeanor, making his position less of one of distinction and more ambiguous (harder to tell the difference).

No but Rabbit seemed to be very effeminate.

I never thought Rabbit was a girl but I did think Piglet was one because his voice sounded like a girl to me.
