I wouldn't ever share this with anyone irl (apart from DH and v v close friends), and never with DS but I have always suspected that he is gay.
He is only 9 and shows no interest in anyone in 'that' way (and is bemused by his classmates' obsession with 'boobies' and 'fancying'), and I've just had this sense since day one, almost, so it's not a new thing.
He's not camp or anything like this, I have no 'reason' to hang my hat on other than this feeling, and I have literally felt like this since he was in utero pretty much. Don't connect it with sex at all - I don't think about it like that really.
It is absolutely NOT A BIG DEAL and I tell all the DCs that men and women can love men or women and that gay couples can have kids - we know a couple who are having twins via donor sperm so it's come up anyway. I don't really mind, I'm just wondering if anyone else has had these feelings (or has them), about their DC - and if they turned out to be correct?
