Think of Monsieur, Philippe de France. His mother supposedly encouraged him as a child to become more effeminate in order for him not to threaten his brother the sinking. However no serious psychologist would these days support the notion that by bringing up a boy in an effeminate manner would have any influence on his sexuality. Philippe probably was a homosexual but lived a bisexual life considering he had children with both his wives.
Why do you want to know that?
Because his maternal grandmother, Duchess Sophie Charlotte in Bavaria, was once engaged to his father's first cousin, the famous "Mad" King Ludwig II, who most certainly was gay. I was just wondering if things sort of came full circle.
