I never understood how pre pubescent children can say they are gay, or transsexual.

I read of a case of a child, in which the mother said her little girl, at age 3, said “I’m a boy”. Based on a 3 year old’s declaration, her life has now been transformed so that she is made to think she’s a boy.

Sad the little guy killed himself. Very sad. I’m sure the media will blame it on our allegedly homophobic society.

It's not about sex for the kids. It's about not fitting into established conventions. The boy liked to wear girl's clothing. That doesn't mean he was a homosexual. But children and others aren't good with distinctions like that.
