I can't belive you people! In this age, people are still saying and thinking this way! No worry for humanity at all as long as you don't have to have compasion for your Brothers and Sisters? I'm just glad that I'm not the way you people are.
This is just plain sad. I feel very sorry for you.

I lived in Thailand for a while.

For those of you who have never been there. There are "ladyboys" everywhere in Thailand. They are male to female trannys basically.

They are totally accepted in Thai culture. There is just about no stigma against them and nobody hates on them.

I miss the tolerance and open-mindedness of that place.

PLEASE list you Academic Credentials, with professional links to back up YOUR ridiculous assertion; that parents determine their child's sexuality!!!!!!

Sexual orientation, homosexuality and bisexuality

Gay Is Okay With APA (American Psychiatric Association) (http://www.soulforce.org/article/642 - broken link)

Official Statement Concerning Homosexuality from the American Psychological Association | CLGS

Most professional researchers have come to the conclusion that sexual orientation is both genetic and hormonal based(mother's hormone levels during gestation).

Everyone seemed to support the parents to allow the child to "be who he is".

My point is the kid doesn't know "who he is" that's for the parents to develop and show him how he is supposed to behave as a little boy in society, no matter how badly he may wish to present himself in dresses, it's not what little boys are supposed to do, and get used to it.

Apparently this NEVER occured to you>>>>> Transgender - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

IF the boy is transgendered than he needs support NOT ridicule from Adults who should know better and get educated when they don't understand and/or have a clue about what they are talking about. The "mind" is a terrible thing to waste!.

That'll go right over his head...ROFLMFAO! .

B--- S---! What defines me as female is my female body parts, not my clothing.

Did you even bother to read the story in the link? SHE is NOT dressing him as a girl. HE is choosing those things for HIMSELF. The parents have simply decided there is nothing 'wrong' with it and are not therefore forcing him into boys clothes that he obviously doesn't care for.

Why didn't you answer the question? Why does 'different' seem to automatically mean 'wrong'?
