Born This Way


How and when did I know my son was gay?  Hard to pinpoint.  Just last night, he told me his earliest memory is his birth.  His birth?  How is that possible?  Apparently, the emotional scarring from this memory, he argues, made an unforgettable imprint in his mind and is the reason he is gay.  He also assured me with pride that my failed attempts to breast feed were not my fault.  A small complication:all girl parts are just gross to him.  Had I known, I would have advised him to keep his eyes closed.  Why don't they go over these things in, What to Expect When You're Expecting?  He doesn't look malnourished, so I think we did alright.  More later on 'Born This Way'.
