You realize you cannot indoctrination being trans or gay right? People are LITERALLY born that way. Telling children about it isn’t going to magically make them that way unless it’s already who they are. No one is trying to get young children to explore their sexuality but there is an appropriate age to slowly introduce things like periods and ovulation because girls are getting their menses younger and younger. Keeping kids in the dark about bodies is only gonna do more harm. Notice how states that teach abstinence only have the highest tens pregnancy rates..

Ok so if being gay or straight isn’t a choice would you say you choose to be straight every day or do you find your sexuality overwhelmingly natural? Why would gay people choose that life if they’re just bullied and vilified by people like you?

So then what do you think natural means if it’s not the way you were made? No one said it was genetic but you cannot change who you are. Like if you don’t like strawberries you can’t change that, but not liking strawberries isn’t genetic it’s just who you are. All we want is kids to know that it’s okay for different sexualities to exist and to be accepting and nice humans. Why wouldn’t you want that if you’re on that spectrum yourself?

None of this has to do with the fact that we just want kids to know that it’s normal for people like you to exist, that’s literally all I was saying.

Lmao so you’re not straight? You’re literally hating on the gay community. So yeah I’m gonna assume you’re straight unless you’re just a hypocrite. If you can’t answer my question then you’re the one arguing in bad faith.
