Like fellow mom Sarah, whose son wore a Daphne from Scooby Doo Halloween costume, Cheryl Kilodavis' son Dyson also yearned for a wardrobe outside his gender norms. Having already made the local news rounds, the Kilodavis — which includes father Dean and brother Dkobe, who are all supportive of Dyson — made their Today debut this morning. Like any other kid, Dkobe likes "playing in the trees," says Dean, "he just likes doing it in a dress. Big deal." Cherly's self-published book about her son, My Princess Boy, was picked up by Simon & Schuster and went into wide release just before Christmas.

Five-year-old Dyson Kilodavis, dubbed "Princess Boy," says he likes to wear dresses and pretty colors and sparkly things "because it makes me feel happy."
Cheryl Kilodavis, the author of My Princess Boy, and her son Dyson, who wore a pink and black tutu, were interviewed by Today host Meredith Vieira this morning. Cheryl Kilodavis says the response to her son has been mostly good and Dyson tells other children who don't accept his wardrobe choices that they aren't his friends. She also proclaims 2011 as "the year of acceptance" following a year marked by many deaths to due antigay bullying.
