My eleven-year-old son – clever, articulate and lovely, isn’t sure yet about his sexual orientation. Why should he be, after all – there’s absolutely no reason why he should have to decide now or ever on a firm preference. He is, however, passionate about drag, and aspires to be a drag queen, principally, I think, on aesthetic grounds. He has put together an amazing drag look – a proper eleganza extravaganza – that he intends to wear at Halloween.
I love and support him utterly, as does the whole family, but I also want to protect him- he’s a sensitive child - from negative feedback, now and forever. Anyone else in a similar situation??
