True Motherhood Confession: "I Wish My Sons Weren't Straight. I'd Love a Gay Son"

A few readers have shared their true confessions, such as "My boyfriend has no friends" and "When I visit my parents, I sleep in their bed."

Today, a woman reveals that she has always wanted a gay son...

Judith Newman has two young sons, Henry and Gus. (Cute names, right?) She adores them madly, but as she wrote this month for Cookie Magazine, she just has one pang of regret: She wishes one of them were gay.

"I don't mean to stereotype," she says. "Maybe with a gay boy I wouldn't be better dressed and accessorized, and maybe my home wouldn't have exquisite window treatments. But let me ask you one question: Have you ever met a gay man who didn't understand the importance of good lighting? I would always look 10 years younger in my own home."

Read her full story here. It's definitely tongue-in-cheek, but I'd love to hear what you think...

Tell me your thoughts! And fyi, we have a bunch of wonderfully romantic posts about falling in love with people of the same sex, coming up!
