A mother has published a book about how her five year old son likes to dress in sparkly pink dresses. He's also been on TeeVee in various dresses and princess outfits.
Just to make it clear, I'm freaked out by the mother exposing her son to the media monster and making money off of his unconventional fashion decisions.

In 13 years (or less) you'll be trying to get in his skirt.

No, I'm not into Fats, Blacks, or Fems, and he's got two out of those three already going on. And by the time he's legal I'll be collecting Social Security and have a Medicare card. Very few young people find these things a sexual turn on.
The real issue is his fucked up parents. They are bonding with him over what would otherwise be a temporary phase. Children want attention from their parents, and children repeat behavior that gets them positive attention from their parents. I had a blanket at his age, and a lovely female relative of mine I ran into at the grocery store today always wore a tiara when she was five. Our parents didn't encourage or discourage these foibles, and we both outgrew them. It's pretty clear the boy is going to be a Gay adult; they should be showing him sword and sandal films and encouraging an interest in video games so that he outgrows the cross-dressing phase. That, and maybe entering family counseling to help everybody deal with the social issues the family will face because of having a gay member. In addition, they should show him that traditional female behavior norms suck so much that most little girls eventually realize they don’t want to be traditional females!
Putting the boy on national TeeVee in a dress, writing a childrens book about his cross-dressing, and exploiting it for financial gain is child abuse! I seriously question their fitness as parents because they’ve done this. Children are cruel, and they will throw these TeeVee appearances and the book in his face when he’s older. I expect his peers will drive him to attempt suicide at a fairly early age, and his parents are incompetent boobs for not foreseeing this.

I love how Fnord is an expert in all things totally removed from his life -- blacks, child rearing, what it's like to be a woman...I think I'm going to declare myself an expert on what it's like to be a dude who cornholes other dudes.

Headkicker, if you were a traditional woman you would be a stay at home wife and mother whose existence revolved around being a demure servant to your husband and a June Cleaver type mother to your children. Since you and every other female on this board have made other life choices, I rest my case about most girls realizing traditional female role expectations suck. Plenty of parents have sons that went through a cross-dressing phase and have seen them through it without traumatizing them or turning them into drag queens.

Some women like the traditional role. Many work out of economic necessity. I worked part time so I could spend time with my kids. If I had the economic means I could find plenty to do with my day that is a lot more interesting than practicing law.
You oversimplify because you know nothing about being a woman and the choices we make. I don't presume to know what it's like to be a gay may, closeted, open, or otherwise. I also realize that within the gay community their are many different choices and ways of expression.

I don't know, fnord, the idea of a grown woman wearing a tiara every day sounds like it could be great.
