Boy-Girl

I got a call from my cousins Czar & Noel who are currently residing in L.A. Our last pone talk was sometime last month just before their younger sister got married. Today, we talked about family news, chismis and intrigues. Well, the usual stuff! We also talked about my beautiful nephew, the son of Noel.

Justin is turning 3 end of this month. He is a normal happy child full of mischiefs. We talked about how he loves shoulder bags. He would carry one around the whole day and before he would go to bed at night, he would lay it ever so gently on the bedside table of his mom announcing that he would be using the same bag for the following day. My cousins slowly started to worry about the bag thing, so they tried to keep away all the hand bags or shoulder bags from the boy's reach. Justin was so upset, but handled it quite well. When he asked for the bag and was told that he should not be playing with them anymore, he just didn't say anything. One day, they found him with a VHS cassette. The film of the tape was pulled out, so it looked like a shoulder bag. He was walking around the whole day with the VHS tape as his bag. I was laughing so much that I almost fell out of my chair.

He also loves his hair long (hence the towel-cum-wig all the time) and is always in front of the mirror trying to sing and act like ....BEYONCE! I had the laugh of my life when I heard about the story of Justin cutting Angela's hair (Angela is the daughter of Czar). He succeeded cutting her hair from one side, but had to stop it because he was already caught by his mommy. So, as of the momment, Angela's hair do looks like, Boy from the right side and Girl from her left side!!!

With this last act, I told my cousin Noel that he should already prepare for a capital to set up a parlor for his son in the future. I don't see anything wrong in accepting the matter right from the start. But then again, I am not the parent...

yup tama si R !!Homosexuality is not environmentally transmitted.It is transmitted genetically & it doesn't depend or it bears no relationship at all to the amount of time your nephew spent in front of tv imitating Starlets!Btw,H! Check more on father side! cuz it is believed -fathers and sons are related genetically

hi R! it is really too early to tell... and it is also possible na "effeminate" lang ang nephew ko. as far as I know, wala akong relative na gay... first degree cousin ko ang father ng bata. pero hindi ko alam sa mother's side ng cousin ko or sa family ng mama ng bata mismo...

sure we can meet later when you come back from manila na or maybe i will see you at the airport pa nga. depends on what time you are leaving.

but then, at 3, it's still early to tell... yun nga lang, the more you react negatively to it, baka lalong ma-push toward that inclination. btw, genetic daw yan. ask the parents which side it could come from.

hey AnP! It's exactly what I mean, help them out to realize what potential they have and develop it, instead of trying to hide the fact and slowly destroy their great talents.

have a great week!

i feel the same. should my son turn out to be gay, i'd make his life "easier" by accepting it so he does not feel the need to hide it.
