Now that's out of the way my son is 12 and he's been showing some"gay" traits. He'd rather spend time in the kitchen with his mother than watch the footy with me and I've noticed he has some very odd friends. Mainly his best friend, a ginger boy with glasses who is also very feminine. They spend almost every waking hour together, even in school. I've asked his head of year if they can split them up but all I got was strange look.
Not trying to offend you people but is there any way I can make sure my son grows up straight? I'd like grandchildren one day and I'd rather not have to have another child if possible.
Chill, we aren't going to hit on you or infect you or something.
Best chefs in the world are men, straight men by the way. Looks mean nothing, trust me there are some pretty soft looking straight guys and some really rugged looking gay ones. Thea whole ginger thing is just a media storm, a bit like the idea that all gay me a effeminate and, if you are a slightly effeminate man you are gay. Good for them in not splitting them up.
How about worrying if he grows up healthy, happy and secure with whoever he is instead? Just hang around, read what many of us went trough with unaccepting parents then ask yourself "Do I really want to do that to my son?"
