[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I mean this seriously, but what does being gay have to do with it? Do you worry if he dresses a certain way he will be pegged as gay? If he was going to dress in the way I am thinking of that means, he wouldn't need his mom to advise him because he would most certainly have his own sense of style and be picking out his own clothes.

So that being said, I think you are safe taking him to any standard teen store or section and letting him pick out what he wants.[/quote]

So, what I mean by mentioning that he's gay is that, my experience as a lesbian in the 90s was that when I first came out, I wanted to dress in a coded way that indicated I was a lesbian.  Because it was new.  Also, for most of my gay male friends they dress with more care and attention than most of my straight male friends.  And the point is that I don't know what that means for a 13 year old boy.  Because I'm a fuddy duddy mom in my own bubble that does not include young stylish people much at all, much less young stylish gay men.

But, the PPs who said I need to get him involved are correct. The thing is, i've always basically bought him so many clothes that he could find something he liked in them, and not wear the rest, but with decent looking men's clothes instead of little boys clothes from Target and Nordstrom Rack, this is going to get expensive unless he at least tells me what he likes somewhat.[/quote]
