was a 1987 book by sexologist Richard Green. Following a 15-year study on the development of homosexuality, Green argued that the most effeminate boys who experience gender dysphoria in childhood (then termed "gender identity disorder in childhood" or, colloquially, "the sissy boy syndrome") identify as gay or bisexual in later life.[1][2][3][4][5][6]
The book has been criticised by queer theorist Eve Kosofsky Sedgwick and John Paul De Cecco, editor-in-chief of the , as offensive and stereotyping, and perpetuating fears of effeminacy in boys.[7][8]
