Hi,

Just came across these.

My Son, Cian. Yes, My Son Who Wears Dresses

My son wants to be a drag queen when he grows up!

I would question the motivations of a "viral" website hosting pictures of the kid from a photography company. The kid could have been "coached" to dress up for site & photo profits or promotions.

At 5 years old the kid shouldn't even know what a vagina is or care what one is yet. For him to even know the word, means he was taught it, coached about it, or the article is faked.

I tried to clean up the horribly orange video to get a closer look. Of course you know, the kid in the video isn't the same one as in the article.

Any idea why I get a sound track as soon as the page loads?  It sounds like the sound track from the first video, but when I play the first video it keeps playing over the sound track on the video.  It also interferes with the sound tracks on the second video.

You might have your browser set to auto-play rather to play when clicked on. So it's playing both videos on the page at the same time, not just the soundtrack. But if your computer or browser can't handle 2 videos streams playing at the same time, it may appear frozen, like it isn't playing, so you only hear the sound of the other video.

It's a common problem with many pages that have more than one video on a page, that some browser settings will try to play all of them at once. Google your browsers auto play settings to learn how to shut off auto-play.

With auto-play off or disabled, the media won't play until you click on it. You may also just click on the stop, play, or pause button to stop the other video you don't want to play.

Life is a lot more peaceful online with auto-play shut off. I hate opening a news article to have 2-4 videos start loading & playing, when all I wanted to do was read an article. Shutting off auto-play also stops a lot of audio/video ads or crap from playing, & saves on loading times because you're not loading a lot of media that you didn't want.

Sorry for the typos. They're corrected now. I tend to copy & paste solutions I wrote before, then edit or add to them to fit the newest query. I get dozens of emails & private messages a day about tech issues that I answer for free, so I copy/paste & then edit some of the answers often rather than re-type everything.

My sister visited me today, & it was a month since her last visit. With her arthritis & leg problems (also forced into early retirement), she don't get around as much as she used to. So I was busy with her when I replied.

I get a lot of emails & private messages. So it's hard to remember what browser or OS anybody is using. Tell me what you're using, & I can figure out how to to get it back to your default settings or tweak them if they're wrong.

Thanks.  I have set "media.autoplay.enabled" to "off."
