People are offended by a gay character in the new Beauty and the Beast?

They're saying things like: [i]keep those kinds of things out of children's movies[/i] and [i]stop shoving the gay agenda down our throats[/i]. So heterosexual relationships are okay, but God forbid homosexual relationships because children will start worshiping Satan if they see something like that?

Also, how is including a character that happens to not be heterosexual shoving any agenda down anyone's throat? That's just a realistic representation of human diversity. That's like saying including a black character is shoving the "black agenda" down people's throats.

These are the same people that whine about liberals being crybabies. I wonder if they've looked in the mirror recently...

Im not gonna criticize the movie. But I choose not to let my kids watch it. Because while there's nothing wrong with being gay. Its just something is rather my kids not see. Oviously ill raise them to be str8. If they are gay is love them just as much but I'm gonna raise them to be str8

I don't think you really raise people to be gay or straight, it's just who they are.

Wow. I just ... wow.
You can't "raise" someone to be straight. All you're doing is keeping them ignorant of the different, beautiful types of people in this world. Good luck with that, because you can shelter them from reality forever.

@Killers: my boys are ages 6,3,2. When there say 13 and older. Then they will be introduced to certain things. But right now they they don't need to know about being gay.

I don't think a 6,3,and 2 year old would even understand that he is gay. @marriedplus3:
@marriedplus3: ...But why are you fine with them seeing straight relationships and not gay ones? That's the root of homophobia. They're both exactly the same but with different types of partners. They're both love. If you're uncomfortable showing your sons gay relationships, then you should be equally uncomfortable showing them straight ones. Just like straight relationships, gay ones are not all about intercourse. It's just two people that love each other, and if your children are capable of understanding that their mommy and daddy love each other, then it's not somehow inappropriate to show them that love exists among other types of people as well: people of different colors, genders, religions, etc. It's all the same and you should treat as such. Discrimination, animosity, hatred is not inborn, it's taught.

1.) What snake oil, quack doctor studies are you citing, because the studies I found show that homosexual parents are just as capable of raising a happy, healthy child as heterosexual parents. Many studies I found say that two parents are ideal, but the sex of the parents is fairly irrelevant because women can be masculine and men can be feminine.

2.) No, homosexual relationships are not a "biological perversion". They are present in many other species, and unlike humans, those species don't berate and discriminate against their homosexual brethren.

3.) You're heavily implying that homosexuality is a "problem" or a health concern similar to obesity. That's comparing apples to oranges. Homosexuality between two consenting adults hurts nobody, and is none of your damn business. They don't need help. [b]YOU[/b] need help.

4.) Jack off to Breitbart, and fuck off from here, buddy-o.
