Growing Up Gay?

So, nowadays kids are coming out in elementary school. I admire them, I couldn't even identify who I had a crush on (maybe because I had this whole queer thing going on) and ended up dating a guy for a few weeks in 6th grade because my friends thought I should. Turns out, that's a bad reason to date someone. (Or, as I learned later in life, to stay with someone. Don't avoid divorce just because your friends like your relationship-- they aren't living it!)

Recently I received a link to this blog. I haven't read much of it, but I really like the idea of someone working to understand this new phenomena of children developing in a healthy way that allows them to express their feelings without (as much) fear.
