How often do flamboyant boys turn out to actually be gay later in life?

No, and pink and blue mindedness is only in the United States. It's a pity children in your country can no longer play, act or can be children. Without being stereotyped and labeled like this, or given A.D.D, Prozac medication or placed into aversion therapy, for acting and being a child.

No wonder why in the USA, there are millions of pregnant twelve and thirteen year old's, one in four American teens living with an untreated STD. Or are seeing a psychiatrists and psychologist after trying to commit suicide or suffering from childhood obesity. From not actively playing outside interacting with other children, like all children do globally.

It's shocking reading the large amount of questions from American kids. Some who are as young nine year old, who shouldn't even be on Y!A forums. Asking questions about relationships, sex and there sexuality.

Asking how they can tell there Christian parents they are pregnant, they might or have a STD, or might be lgbt, etc.

This young boy you mentioned is only seven years old, let him play, act and be a seven year old as long as you can. Before he too becomes another number within these US rates and figures, you can Google.

First, let's get something clear: I think homosexuality is pretty much a good thing: fewer babies that people aren't really ready to raise. BUT maybe child abuse does have an impact in determining sexual orientation. What do I have to go on ? Let's take stock: 1) 'facts' from the internet. (I'm not about to run down to the library and anyway, it would amount to much the same thing.) 2) anecdotes from my own life. 1: that would be some serious work. Work I'm not about to do. I'm guessing that you aren't either. So what do we have left ? What we've been told (an anecdote of a sort. OK, hearsay. Pretty much the same quality of input as the Nazi propaganda that was telling the Germans that Jews were insane. Can't really trust it. So yeah, you and I have been told over and over that homosexuality is a genetic condition. Twin tests ? Evidence ? Without #1, all we have is 'everybody knows' or 'well, I knew a couple of gay guys and they were both abused...', some crap like that. I can say that it seems clear that abuse doesn't lead to homosexuality 100% of the time b/c I've only ever met one person who wasn't in some way abused as a child. Of course, even your post lists child abuse as 'one' of the reasons, not the only reason. I can also say that calling a whole bunch of people idiots b/c their unresearched belief is different than your unresearched belief and then telling them that they need to learn to do some critical thinking won't win you any points with them or me. But, by all means, if you have some convincing proof on the issue, by all means, hook us up. Post a link to a site that proves, once and for all, that homosexuality is genetic and that's that.

Apparently its all conditioning and up bringing within the first 5 years of the child being born. That being said, a child being brought intentionally to be homosexual has no guarantee of being such. All I know is that I'm a man that has been pretty girly all my life, still pretty girly except for a few crucial facets. I like girly drinks, music, movies, Fashion- i like babysitting kids and constantly find myself cleaning up after and taking care of other people. That being said there's nothing i like more than pleasing my girlfriend, if u know what i mean ;).

So ya, there are some very feminine guys out there, even children, but that doesn't mean that they'll definitely grow up to be gay.... just most of the time.

I think there's some truth to that. My best guy friend since second grade is gay and came out in high school. He was always a bit feminine, interested in and involved in theater, cried fairly often and was more emotional than most of the girls I knew. And...he had a Backstreet Boys cd when they first hit the music scene when we were in 6th grade or so. I hate stereotypes and try to avoid them, but was just a bit too coincidental.

You know, when I was young I'm preety sure I was flamboyant too LOL. But then I got older and started repressing/supressing it, so I'm not at all flamboyant anymore (tho I'm sure I'm gay). It took me a long time to accept that, but anyways. I think most peoplelike that are actually gay. It's interesting why that happens tho! (also, I feel the need to say, most gay people arent the steroptype flamboyant kind, so just b/c some act like that when they're little, it doesn't mean that most people who are/will be gay are going to act like that).

More often than not, children who act flamboyant turn out to be gay later in life.

Sorry If some people don't like this answer. But its the truth.

Not that I have any sort of data on this but fairly often. He might also be transgender.

Then again, he might just be a weird little kid - there's plenty of straight yet very effeminate men.

But he's probably not going to grow up to be an NFL linebacker. :)

It's not ALL the time. I know two kids like that, one of them's ten, and he's obviously gay.

Lol, he actually told all of the kids in my theater group once, he was just like, "I'm gay." And they were like "so do you like Sarah or not?" And he was like "...I just told you I was gay..." And they just completely ignored it. I think I'm the only one that actually believed him lol.

Okay, that was a pointless story.

And the other guy I know who's like that is my ex-boyfriend.

So... not always.

It could totally happen. There's a gay boy at my school and many parents asked his parents if he was gay...in kindergarten!!

when my brother was 6 years old, he loved to play barbie with me & my sister. he used to beg me to paint his nails. he also used to dress up lyk girls. but as he grew up, he just grew out of it. so...its pretty normal for that to happen. DONT WORRY!!!
