I agree. On my rugby team it seems at if the "straight girls" tend to be overly girly off the pitch in order to combat any sort of assumptions that if they play rugby, they must be a lesbian. Then that opens up a whole new topic of discussion.

I think this need to do so would be more stressed in a female athlete that is in the public eye.

I know several gay and lesbian couples with children with a stay-at-home parent.
I agree. I generalized. Thanks for pointing that out.


My original intent was to not create a battle of the sexes. I probably should have been more vague with my question and not include gender terminology at all. Also, it would have been better to stay away from negative words such as needy.

What drives a person (of any gender) to be drawn to an innocent childlike persona? Does the caregiver need take over?

What draws a person (of any gender) to be drawn to a caregiver persona?

ETA: yeah, poor title.
