Sebastian, 12, was called “gay” – the answer is brilliant

Swedish lad Sebastian Holmström, 12, was called "gay" by another student at the school.

In the afternoon the day before, Sebastian coloured his hair without the knowledge of his mum, the colour he had chosen was pink. He was very satisfied when he showed off his new hair do to his mum and concluded that he was looking fabulous – his mum, Maria Ölund agreed with him, Aftonbladet reports.

Sebastian was teased for his new hairstyle at school the next day. A other student walked up to him and called him “gay“. But Sebastian had a reply.

– What is to you ? Are you interested in me, ‘he replied.
– When the guy just said “No, what the hell,” and walked away, says Maria Ölund to the Swedish newspaper Aftonbladet.

The next day was Sebastian left in peace.

– Today, no one said “gay” to me, he said when he came home from school.

I think Sebastian had just the perfect quick response to the kid that called him gay, even think it’s very brave by the 12 year old. I just wish I had the same courage when I was 12 and someone called me gay. What do you think ?
