Magic Johnson's 20-year-old son hit the Sunset Strip, hand in hand with his boyfriend ... and his parents couldn't be happier for their kid.
Earvin Johnson III -- aka EJ -- is one of Magic's 3 kids.  The Lakers legend says, "Cookie and I love EJ and support him in every way."  Magic goes on, "We're very proud of him."
The feeling is mutual ... 'cause EJ told us he's been "hoping and praying" for his dad's team, the Los Angeles Dodgers, ever since Magic and his business partners took over the franchise.
He's also a huge Lakers fan ... obviously.
EJ -- who's a student at NYU -- has a close relationship with his parents. Back in August, Magic tweeted, "Thx to my son EJ for hosting me at NYU. Look forward to taking him to dinner tonight in the city.

Rick Fox, can you change your avi back to what it was man.

But damn that dude is super over the top in terms of flamboyancy. Sheesh :lol:

I wonder how Magic really feels. Not the PC version
 
No hate but I know for any father that got to be the worst thing ever to have to deal with.

Plus especially when ya pops was a legend, Somewhere Tim hardaway smiling watching his son live up to his name.

It wouldn't bother me that my son is gay.

But it would bother me that my son is rockin fur capes walking down city streets like the world is sweet.

Even if he were straight i would be like "WTF is that cape about, brah?"

Once again, nothing against the kid being gay, but that pic makes him seem like just a really annoying person to be around.

C'mon, bruh. What if he changes the world for the better? What if he cures cancer, or fixes the economic problems? That's still you're son, man. You don't wanna be like Eminem's mom or Tywin Lannister, just have the world hate you because part of their success is your lack of love for your own flesh and blood. You'll still be mad at them and they'll be over you, just enjoying life and talking bad about you whenever they're on TV.

Chinua Achebe just died a couple weeks ago. You need to read "Things Fall Apart".You can hate your kids for being themselves, but they're just gonna go on living life and eventually you'll have to answer for that in one way or another.

I feel you, but I just don't believe you. If you're son were a serial killer you wouldn't be like "well at least he aint GAY!!!". That's just a really easy thing to say.

Would you rather your son be a pedophile who only smashes little girls, as opposed to a gay dude who smashes dudes his own age?

Would you rather your son kill his grandparents, your parents if they are still alive (if not, just imagine they are) than be gay?

What if your son was REALLY gay, but was also REALLY good at hiding it around you? If he just up and killed himself one day, would you feel bad since you didn't know why he did it? What if then 30 years after his suicide you found out he was gay? Would you take that sadness back?

If you killed your son for being gay, but didn't kill yourself, then went to prison for life would you be OK with how your life turned out? I'm not even going to get into getting raped by your gay cellmate when he finds out why you're in there.

Please tell me how that is the "worst thing ever to deal with" for a father? I'm sure it must make Magic absolutely sad to watch his son live openly and be utterly happy with himself. Surely, it would be harder for a parent to have to deal with their son being a closeted homosexual. Good on Magic for being supportive. I would be supportive. It takes a huge backbone to be able to be openly gay. It doesn't take much of a backbone to insinuate that this is the worse thing a parent could have to deal with. May you never have children.
