My 6 year old son is firmly convinced he IS a fairy *g*. In fact, he had
a fairy costume for Halloween. It got some raised eyebrows, but HE loved
it. As far as sexual preferences, however, who knows? He IS only six. If
I had to guess, though, I'd guess he's gonna turn out bisexual, like his
mother.

I am assuming that by 'fairy' you mean gay. If my son were gay it would not
change how we care for and love him. I agree Elissa, our only want for our
children is to be happy, caring, sensitive, and be treated WELL and know
themselves.
