So, um, a tranny in the making?
I'm sure there's some element of that, too.
Dr. Joseph Nicolosi — someone whose ideas I recommend everyone here familiarize themselves with — calls homosexuality a
gender identity disorder. As he discusses it, there is not much difference between someone who is homosexual versus someone who is "transgender." Certainly not as much difference as many people would like you to believe. It's all a reflection of the same basic problem:
deep, psychological confusion regarding one's own sexual self, which is often rooted in much more basic psychological issues.
This is why the alphabet soup keeps getting longer: LGBTQXYZ . . . The people who are pushing this stuff keep adding more variations into the mix, more possibilities, more genders, making the subject of sex and sexual identity seem increasingly complicated, and thus bewildering to young people.
As Nicolosi says, you have to get them when they're young. This is why there is such a push to normalize not only homosexuality & transgenderism in general, but specifically to young people. It's perfectly OK to be gay! In fact, being gay or transgender is a wonderful thing!
I guarantee you this "boy" will be portrayed as otherwise perfectly normal, a fun kid to have as a friend. They won't show him wrestling with internal demons. They will not depict his inner turmoil nor the psychological problems which underlie his rebellion against his natural sexuality. All of his problems, to the extent that he has any, will be external — his struggle to "come out" to others, to be accepted for who he really is.
Why he is the way he is will not be addressed, because as Nicolosi points out, you aren't allowed to ask "why" when it comes to homosexuality. If you ask "why," you're homophobic. If you try to help a person struggling with gender identity to understand themselves, you're labeled a monster (as Nicolosi was). Yours is not to ask why, yours is simply to accept & support.
