If your primary-school-going son asks you what the meaning on being gay is, how would you explain it to him?

if your child has asked you about it, it means that he has heard of the word from somewhere, or may already have a bit of idea about what it means but is not sure. talk to him honestly. of course you don't have to go into too many details, but keep it age appropriate. tell him that being gay is another type of a girlfriend boyfriend thing that he may have seen in movies. it means a special connect and a special friendship that a boy shares with a boy. be very normal while explaining so that your boy knows this is absolutely natural
