Disney's popular website Pixie Hollow just welcomed a new fairy to its mystical ranks -- and surprise! It's a boy.
Disney has introduced its first fairy-dude to the formerly all-girl world: A boy by the name of Slate. (awfully butch name for a fairy!)
Is this for the little 'gay-boy' market they haven't tapped yet?
How come he has two right feet and looks like he's go to pee real bad?
Technically, they're calling him and his ilk "sparrow men," not male fairies, but they're definitely catering to people like my boyfriend, who dragged his mother to the Disney store when he was four to try on replicas of Belle's yellow dress from Beauty and the Beast.

So...Yes.
I would think the little gay boys are already content with being the fairies with pretty dresses.
I wasn't arguing, Diva, just nitpicking your fairy terminology.
Anyway, he looks like a cheap avatar.
It reminds me of those stupid doll gifs middle school girls used to be obsessed with back in the AOL days.

^ Some high school boys got into them, too.
Somewhere, on my parent's hard-drive, is a doll gif of Dolly Parton as Miss Mona.
Do they really call them "sparrow men"?
That's just darling.
Not "Tinker Boy"?
"Sparrow men"?? I smell a new euphemism!
"^ Some high school boys got into them, too."
I always did those dolls. My favorites were Velma Kelly and Mimi Marquez.
