I think it's not being accepting of non stereotypical boys and girls that leads kids to think they might be the opposite sex. Every story of a trans child I've ever seen started with 'I liked playing with girls toys.... I liked dresses not jeans...'.It's idealistic nonsense I know, but hammering people into conformity is why people are like "Oh, I'm gay, that must be it".
I could ramble on about presentation stereotypes in the gay community and how it's possible they represent repressed feelings of dysphoria or "otherness" but I don't think there'd be much point.
Can you explain this? Does it mean that you think effeminate (for want of a better word) gay men are actually women, they're just repressing it?
