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?

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