What do the straights mean when they say the LGBT community is forcing themselves on them?

No one is trying to turn you gay. I don’t understand what you’re even talking about to respond.

If you have issues with gay/trans people in media that kids have access to.

1- be a better parent that is more involved

Or

2- don’t allow straight or cis gender people to be out in that media. Either is ALL acceptable or none of it is. Children have same sex and trans parents too. If they can’t be represented, why should yours?

Homosexuality has always existed in nature and there has been animals known to change their sex. So don’t give me the naturalist argument, because that’s not going to be in your favor.

Most people don't want their children to be sexualized in any way so it has hardly anything to do with whether that particular individual is gay or trans. There doesn't need to be any discussion around transgenderism in schools and there is no real benefit to children being purposefully exposed to people who identify as trans. When these things evolve naturally in personal relationships it's different but this should otherwise be considered a non-issue in schools and the media (and certainly the state) shouldn't be promoting or encouraging any kind of narrative.

@SW-User Trans people exist, kids have trans parents, there are teachers who are trans. These people aren’t going to hide for the sake of your children. That’s not sexualizing them. Who is even discussing transgenderism in school? Are you just making things up now? Lol

I’m fine with not discussing it in school, but remain consistent. Don’t talk about heterosexuality if you’re not willing to talk about everyone else. It’s either ALL okay or none of it is.

@666Maggotz The vast majority of kids don't have trans parents but that doesn't pertain to what I'm saying. I brought up education because it's relevant to what it is you're complaining about lol. For some reason you seem to be advocating that transgenderism be not just accepted but actually talked about and embraced by the media and by parents but there is absolutely no legitimate reason to do that...it's not beneficial to children and it serves no valuable purpose to attach significance to someone's sexual preferences or gender identity.

@SW-User now you are just assuming what I’m advocating, which is honestly annoying. It’s free to just ask. I’m advocated they be accepted if they are there. As in, don’t silence them. So many people seem to think trans people need to hide and not let people know they exist. That’s what I’m advocating, accepting them as a normal part of the world.

@666Maggotz You don't have to be continually exposed to something to accept it or acknowledge its right to exist. I accept that some people identify as trans but that doesn't mean I am obliged to know anything more about it or become acquainted with their way of being in some way. Essentially you're arguing that we blindly go along with whatever pro trans narrative there is the media and elsewhere but that is not what acceptance is.

@SW-User and what pro trans narrative am I supporting here? I was mostly talking about homosexuality anyway lol you are the one hyperfocusing on trans people for some unknown reason.

@SW-User Weird how no one had a problem when I had a straight crush in Kindergarten and first grade.

@666Maggotz it's getting boring to have to keep explaining things to you. You don't seem to understand what your own points entail lol. And you say you're mostly talking about homosexuality but you referenced trans people twice in the original post and have done here without prompting from me.

666Maggotz · F

@SW-User I also referenced homosexuals several times in my post. This post was for you to explain in detail your points. I’m only using you people to strengthen my own talking point.
Well your response was mostly talking about trans people. What else was I supposed to talk about?

Well it gets boring when you keep assuming what my stance is when I haven’t even told you what it was.

@SW-User I don’t want to discuss my points btw. I want a deep elaboration on your stance and the why behind it. My views are irrelevant.

Me questioning your WHY is just that… questioning. That’s the purpose of this post. To question you. To force out what makes you this way.
