There is no evidence whatsoever that homosexuality is linked to upbringing or trauma, so you can't write off homosexuality as originating in that manner.

Because you where born gay. Because people are born gay and trans. You’re just lying to yourself to fix this blatant hypocrisy in your head.

Define young people.


Grades K-10


Basic sex education on average starts at 5-6th grades. I don’t know what kinders, 1st and 2nd graders are always brought up in “OMG they want to teach homosexuality!?!?!?!!?”

Kinders? Seriously. They could talk about it forever and they would basically be “ok!” And not understand what was discussed.

Puberty is a good time for such talks as in general they are starting to wonder about it anyway.

Much as many many religious people think; if the amount of homosexuals increases; it’s only because they feel comfortable admitting to being one.

Ignorance is a bad thing.

Even though, as has already been pointed out, LGBT topics fall under the given umbrella, I would like to point out that by this logic things like trades, art, and computer skills should also be disallowed.

The vast majority of lbqt+ stuff tends to be in high school and pretain to clubs rather than actual lecture. A age where your horny enough to know which way you swing. The legislation reads like a conservative mother concerned her son or daughter might come out of the closet.

So in the vast majority of the situations, it's a bill designed to shut down certain groups from organizing in a public structure. Based upon an idea of moral purity.

A certain person on this site loves to say “That is your opinion” That’s all it is and it doesn’t make it right.

As mentioned about a bazillion times. We have examples in the animal kingdom. The fact we are born cisgender does mean we are only attracted to the opposite. Some just aren’t.

Someday; we will identify a genetic sequence which suggests homosexuality. We will also get the “faithful” going GREAT now we can fix them!

Well, you're wrong on gender identity

Study on transgender bran development

Sexuality is exceedingly complicated, though

23 and me sexuality study (which I did participate in). There isn't any real reason not to teach students about this complex topic IMO, and you haven't offered one beyond "it's not fundamental."

Gotta deny people are born gay because then you have to wrestle with the idea that if people are born gay then its by God's design and, if such, serves a God-given purpose and that doesn't mesh with God believing its a sin.

Been there, done that, boring couple years of my life.

Guess where LGBTQ falls under?

Social Studies.


Science and reading/writing too, I'd suggest.

Science simply because LGBT topics are critical parts of psychology and sociology, among other scientific fields.

Reading/writing because of literature written by LGBT authors or with LGBT themes, which is not just a recent thing either.

As Kannap said, that's not the only kind of hate. Someone who would shield their kids' eyes and hurry them along from a visibly queer person on the street is not not hateful just because the Nazis put us in camps.

I also chose one time in my life to embrace a gay identity. It didn’t really bring me any peace. I even went to a church that caters to LGBT people at all that really resulting in is perverted old men talking sexually to me when I was a teenager. I’ve never felt at peace within the LGBT community and the culture. I’m also glad that I have never engaged in any physical activity either because that saved me a lot of heartache and possible STI‘s.

I’m not gonna talk about this anymore because it’s depressing to me. See you in other threads

Final note, I would not treat LGBT people any differently than heterosexual and cisgender people. I would treat them with love and respect that I believe Christ commands me to. I would not start preaching fire and brimstone to them or misgender anyone.

No, what you are advocating is hateful towards LGBT persons as a whole, that's arguably far worse.

You are insisting on treating them differently. You are denying LGBT kids existence. If you believed for a second that you should treat them with respect then you would stop what your doing.

Don’t do anything stupid. If there’s any activities that involve things you disagree with, just sit it out and say nothing. It’s not worth the trouble
