The mother is my mom's eldest sister.

My Uncle (the father) is a well known policeman in our homecity and a strict but loving father to his 7 children (5 girls and 2 boys).

The boy in question is my cousin (first degree) and this story happened 20 years back and at an early age of 7, he was the "queen" of the house :)

The boy grew up to be what he is now, a REGISTERED NURSE and currently working in UK.

I raised this question coz I never knew what my uncle's thoughts were about his youngest son. My uncle is a man of few mwords, he rarely smiles.

And I have a son too, aged 12 and lives with my mom, my daughter and a couple of my cousins' children are gays as well... yup, it runs in the family...I'm not ashamed/embarassed but I'm a little bit concerned myself, but not worried.
