So I just read this article about a 7 year old boy is transgender and wants to be a girl scout. I told my mother about this and she told me it was sad. I didn't and don't understand this. I…Continue

"Why is such a big question, but like you I doubt that's the case, I'm just saying it is possible. My mother in fact, who is not a lesbian btw, is kind of anti-masculinity herself. Fucked me up some, but not my brother...strangely. Why? I…"

"why would lesbians be against men anyway, kids still have a natural instinct to do what is good for them and for others?"

"Well they wouldn't actually have to say anything explicitly. It could be enough with poorly concealed frowns or displays of disappointment whenever the kid would do something boyish they dislike. Sensitive kids would pick up on this and get…"

"I can see how this might seem suspect, given that the mothers are gay... But on the other hand, isn't it more likely that a gay couple would pic up on the signs and come to accept it earlier on and then decide to make this, possibly lifesaving…"

"yeh, I'm assuming that lesbians would be good parents here, I hope people want the best for their kids and morally its best to help them found out who they are by first identifying the stereotypes around them"

"well, the assumption that they would be saying things like that is pretty far-fetched, i'd say. if they have a child who is a boy, they probably won't be telling that boy that boys are all gross ad evil, and that he has to become a girl,…"

"  if the other child is 7, he probably has no idea about his sexual orientation. he probably has no idea what the word sexual even means! i know i didnt when i was 7. it's likely that he is following the natural idea that young…"

Shane replied to Faith Perez's discussion Should you encourage gender choices at a young age??
"Right.  But the motivating thought on the part of the child is of sexuality - he feels that he is the wrong gender.  Is this a choice?  Or is it something that the child discovers about himself?  This is the issue I wanted to…"

"I guess it also depends where that influence is coming. If a boys lesbian parents start telling their son that boys are gross and evil, its potentially shaping his life. Removing that from him."

Rhiannon Lawrie replied to Faith Perez's discussion Should you encourage gender choices at a young age??
"I think kids should be influenced into their own gender, it isn't sexist for girls to have barbies and boys to play with bionica or whatever. Its natural for kids to conform to the stereotypes so they know the difference between boy and girl,…"

Tyler Hogan replied to Faith Perez's discussion Should you encourage gender choices at a young age??
"I'm not talking about his sexually orientation. The "choice" I'm talking about is concerning whether or not the child should, himself, have the choice to undergo gender reassignment surgery. As scene in the link aforementioned."
Oct 27, 2011
Shane replied to Faith Perez's discussion Should you encourage gender choices at a young age??
"I think you both should be careful in how you word your thoughts on this.  Asking whether the child has the "mental capacity" to make this "choice" implies that one's sexual orientation is based upon a personal…"

Tyler Hogan replied to Faith Perez's discussion Should you encourage gender choices at a young age??
"First of all I would like to point out that both of the parents of the boy are lesbians. Which I have no problem with, but I find the fact that a 7-year-old boy came up with this notion all on his own, with no influence, a bit questionable. That…"

Faith Perez replied to E_Lewis's discussion Is Being Gay a Choice?
"In Chrsitianity, the Bible says at least three times that being gay is wrong.   Okay so I have nooo idea if anyone has pointed this out but I just felt I need to make the statement. After a long long long time of studying the bible I have found…"
