Perhaps

I can remember my oldest, when asked who he wanted to marry when he got older (he was 5 or 6), replied without hesitation, "Scotty" (his best friend......looking back it makes perfect sense). And Scotty's mom was not amused but I knew that boys at 5 and 6 would rather spend time with men and boys. Like Oldfart said, they are learning to be boys. They may try on "feminine" behaviors and traits to see how it all feels. It's wonderful you don't get all warped about it.


In my 3 year old classroom one year 5 out of my 8 dads were on the local SWAT team. I loved nothing more then to torment them with pics of their little boys dressed in tu-tus, hats, heels, and purses:p Some of them were so homophobic. I'm evil I know:D

ROFL I wish I could have seen their faces! My cousin is a redneck and when his little two-year-old started dressing up with mommy's pearls they thought it was cute for a while but my cousin put a stop to it when his son kept saying, "I am beautiful, aren't I, Daddy?" LOLOL

skipthisone at his age girls are not cool the ich factor as he gets
older may get interested in girls or not but ether way wil need suport from his family

by the way Barbies a stick and is not sexy
ken maby ok if he dumps the blond
:D

I wouldn't worry about it. I grew up playing with dolls at that age. I grew up pretty norm...

...second thought, maybe you should worry.

LOL

Honestly though, don't worry about your boy. Let him have fun now.. it's innocent.

Just be sure to get it on video tape for later years. He will laugh his ass off when he sees it at 30.

skip I wouldn't worry to much most 5 year old boys don't like girls that will change as he get older

I agree with Booger, I don't think a 5-year old's perspective on things sexual is much to think about. Fortunately, at this age, the Cartoon Network still has more influence then the genitals.

Now if he were 7. :D :D



On the other hand, if he'd said something about seeing a sheep with it's head caught between two fence posts and feeling a degree of excitement at the possibilities ... nah ... forget that stuff ... go back to the Cartoon Network. :D

ROFLMAO.... out of the mouths of babes...

thankfully (knock on wood) my son hasn't done anything like that to speak of...

The worst thing about it for me is he has a weirdo aunt who encourages him to be more a-sexual.

But she can't encourage him to find Ken sexy, ya know what I mean?
