| What does "gay" have to do about it? She didn't say a thing about him being gay. People are projecting that on to this. Also- aren't professional male ballet dancers largely straight anyway? | |

| Sorry: did you honestly think she wasn't implying that Prince George would rebel at being forced to participate in something so gay??? I thought was the whole POINT of your pearl clutching! |

| She didn't have to say it. Historically, a young boy being interested in ballet would be teased: "what's so gay." It has long been a direct association, so that is part of the reason people are reacting strongly to what she said. Why should any young child be teased or discourage for ANY creative interest? | |

This level of disingenuousness (is that a word?) in this thread is amazing, and more than a little frightening. |
