[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think the mom, and most if not all of the PPs, are confusing sexuality and sexual identity with gender identity. If the mom is dressing the girl as a boy and saying she thinks the girl wants to be a boy, she is seeing her as transgendered, not as straight or gay. She should do a little research - if this truly is projection which shapes the child's identity, she may end up with a straight son, not one "for the team".[/quote] OP here. My friend is a gay woman who identifies as "butch" and came out as a young adult. She has friends who have "gone to Trinidad" for sex change surgery and is an educated person. No way she is intellectually unclear on the difference between gay, transgender, gender identity and sexuality, though some on this forum ( such as the gay basher who felt compelled to post) may be very unclear on these terms, doubt many in LBTG community are unversed in them. So, the question remains for those who have some life experience in this. Thanks[/quote]
