when I was 6 years old, in first grade, I had a severe crush on a girl in my class; her name was Carol D.
I had no idea why I felt so attracted to this girl but the attraction was overwhelming.
I did one of the corniest things ever; I went to the grocery store with my Mom, as I always did, went to one of those vending machines that contains the two-piece containers that contain weird little items, I got one that contained a ring, and I gave Carol the ring one day at school the next week. This, at six years old.
I have no doubt the nine year old kid from the OP article believed he was gay. I'm not saying he was gay but I believe the kid thought he was.
Kids are MUCH more intuitive than most adults will ever give them credit for.
They are also much more malleable, and can be convinced of things of which they have no conception by too much exposure to adult matters.
Between the psychoactive drugging via the school system, the addiction to social media and the constant bombardment with the oddest of adult proclivities, now normalized, the culture devised by the American Left is driving the kids insane.
You quoted me; what does your post have to do with my post? I don't see the connection. Thanks
"I have no doubt the nine year old kid from the OP article believed he was gay."
I know many within the medical community; doctors, nurses, counselors, you name it, I know many.
I have heard stories for years from professionals relayed to me concerning children as young as 4, 5, 6 years old that announced to their friends & parents they believed they were gay.
Some of these experiences go back to the 1960s & 1970s.
Your comment seemed to attribute some of this phenomena to more recents times; how can cases from four & five decades back be addressed by your post?
