Wow that's just an amazing ****ing point you have there.

Wearing ugly shoes for example is totally the same thing as being a feminine little boy that gets bullied into depression/suicice.

You really are this ****ing reeruned, huh?

People who are poor get bullied into depression.
People who aren't smart get bullied into depression.
Depending on where you live...people who aren't a certain religion get bullied into depression.

The list is endless. Maybe...just maybe....we should handle the whole "bullying" problem instead of putting the onus on the gay kid.

News flash:

I wouldn't want my kid to be pooor.

I wouldn't want my kid to be stupid.

Again, you really are this ****ing reeruned.

The pink lipgloss doesn't seem to be an issue. Interesting

You're so angry that you can't even type correctly. Take a xanax.

Sure (and you're preaching to the choir on that)... and I think these days it's different, too. I don't know if being gay growing up is that much worse than all the other reasons kids get bullied.

IF there was a significantly higher chance of significant bullying/ridicule/bullshit for any given reason... then I wouldn't want my kid to have to go through that.

That's completely separate from how I'd raise the kid (I wouldn't coach them to be straight, for example) and there would be zero disappointment.... it would however suck to see them go through the bullshit.

Maybe because I have a kid with a lifelong condition....that I've never once worried about her sexual orientation and spent more time worrying about her health. Which of course she got bullied for.

So yet again...something that she couldn't control got her shit from other people.

I will honestly say that when my two sons were young I hoped they would turn out to be straight. Wouldn't love them any less or judge them in any way if they weren't, but I think parents have a natural inclination towards wanting what they define as "normal" for their kids. Fewer challenges in life. Of course that could end up to be complete folly as they might turn out to be gay and that brings out in them other traits that make them wildly successful and leading a happy life.

Yea, I'd just deflect after getting called out on that stupid point too if I were you.

Also, @ ending bullying. Good luck with that. I'm sure it will go about as well as ending racism, world hunger, murder, etc.

Staylor will tell you otherwise but I never once said I had a problem with that. Doesn't make you a homophobe like he said. I've just never thought about it.

And if you had a choice, you'd prefer she didn't have said condition.

JFC you're so close.

Did I use the word ending? I must have missed that. But because we can't end something...we should probably never work on it, huh?

More gaslighting.

How exactly do you suggest we "work on it"?

You can't change human nature. Sorry. Your utopia isn't realistic.

It’s completely normal to think this way. It’s also completely normal to want your kids to potentially marry someone of the same race in the hopes your genetic characteristics get passed along

Nobody wants a gay or trans kid. If your kid is gay or trans you figure it out and do your best to be a good parent but it’s nobody’s first option given the choice. Which doesn’t matter because you ultimately get little to no say in who your child wants to **** unless you’re one of these religious loons or one of these rainbow warriors that parade them around to alphabet events. Then you might mold their young mind enough to push them down a certain path
