My husband say that by letting him play in my hair I'm opening a portal. Is it wrong, will my son think it's okay to play in everybodies hair. Could this open the portal to gayness? Will this led him to want to do other things that are consider for girls?

Oh give me a BREAK... You and your child are bonding...
Now, If he says anything about that then you need to tell him... “Oh, he better never see you naked. He might get the wrong idea about body parts.” In other words.. If your hubby sleeps in the buff, he better get some PJs on.....
What about stuffed animals? Should your kid hug a football at night? What about action figures?
Hell, I played with Ken dolls down the street with a little girl. She liked to play with Barbies. Heck, I even braided my sister’s hair when I was 4. My sister and her friends dressed me up in girl clothes and makeup when I was 4….
Believe it or not… I like girls… Sheesh…

No, as long as the the other person doesn't mind it and he is being gentle, let him play with people's hair. There is not "portal" to gayness". And let him do things considered for girls if he wants to. If he is gay, he already is gay and there is nothing you can do about it. You will be hurting him if you made it seem like you don't love him for exactly who he is. My husband and I are totally fine with our daughter doing boy things- it's society who has defined what boy things and girl things to do are. He already can see all around him what society has already defined for him- you don't have to "set him straight." So cherish your son and by the way, that is normal behavior for ANY child to want to play with hair. Have fun with it! This is a great way for your son to learn how to be gentle...

OMG that is so funny. Open a portal to gayness? People aren't gay because they do hair. It is a biological thing. If your son is gay, he was born gay.
I have a guy friend that does hair. He is built like a lumberjack and is DEFINITELY not gay. The straightest guy on earth. He just likes womens hair and decided to make a profession out of it.
Let your son play with your hair. It is sweet.

Absolutely not. Being gay doesn't happen that way. If your son is ever to be gay, then he already is. There is no doing or undoing this. It's from birth.
And he's 4! Come on, playing with your mommy's hair is fun when you're that age.
If all of a sudden that stopped, he would become confused. He might put the blame on himself.
If you're able to, ask your mother-in-law for an embarrassing story about your husband doing something 'girlie' when he was young. That'll give him a taste of his own medicine.
Good luck

My daughter pulled my hair so hard when she was little, but my son loves it when I lay him on the bed and my hair is down and it falls around his face. He grabs it gently and plays with it. My son is not going to be gay because he plays with my hair, neither will yours. It may mean that he likes women later on that have hair like yours... Or it could also be the reason why a lot of men like long hair.... Hmmmmm.

What? Your husband is crazy. That has nothing to do with being gay. It is a completely normal thing for boys to even want to play with a barbie sometimes . Nothing at all wrong with it. I have 3 boys and when they were younger they would try and use my make up or things like that. They are now DEFINITLEY NOT gay.;lol Dont worry about that stuff.

There is nothing wrong with your son playing in your hair and that is not going to make him gay? My son plays with a dollhouse sometime, that does not mean he is gay? He is 4 years old, tell your husband to let him be a kid and leave him alone, there is nothing wrong with his behavior.

I only have 2 things to say about this.
1. Let your son play with your hair it's normal.
2. YOU ARE NOT BORN GAY!!!!!!!
That second one is for all you people that have the wrong idea about the gay issue.

The problem isn't a small child playing in hair but a grown man not being open enough to educate himself to the fact that being gay isn't "created." I'm not trying to be rude but you may need to just remember if your husband is going to be closed to science, you may face defending your own beliefs as well as your child's as he grows. I hope your husband will be interested enough to learn more about this if it troubles him.
