  1. Sexualization of children? End Child Pageantry | A Psychological Nightmare (psu.edu) Behind the business of Asia's child beauty pageants - BBC News
  2. Again. FACT: LGBTQ youth DO exist. At What Age Do Kids Identify as Gay? - Family Resources (familyresourcesinc.org) AT WHAT AGE DO KIDS IDENTIFY AS GAY?
  3. Heterosexuality isn't invisible at all in schools! The total opposite really. I kind of understand. Most heterosexuals are conditioned in such a way to be totally blind to heteronormative culture which is everywhere, and totally dominant. To them that is normal so they simply don't see it. The kids that happen to feel "different from the others" certainly feel the rampant, blatant heteronormative culture and sadly it makes them feel alienated, often depressed, and tragically much more suicidal ideation or even actual suicide than non queer youth. Messages even from ONE caring adult that their life still has value regardless of their difference can have a huge benefit. Yes such messages might also come in a book, in a movie, perhaps even a Pride flag.
  4. You can try to make LGBTQ youth invisible like some political demagogues but try as you might they still do exist.
  5. But no interest in protecting LGBTQ children or children from families with LGBTQ parents.
  6. I'll go on record with this. There will never be any consequences for ignoring that report.
  7. MIsuse of the word grooming by the anti LGBTQ right wing. https://www.adl.org/resources/blog/what-grooming-truth-behind-dangerous-bigoted-lie-targeting-lgbtq-community What is “Grooming?” The Truth Behind the Dangerous, Bigoted Lie Targeting the LGBTQ+ Community Far-right and extremist voices have launched a significant attack against the LGBTQ+ community in 2021-2022, demonizing people via repeated false claims that LGBTQ+ people are “pedophiles” who are “grooming” children in order to abuse them. This false and malicious narrative has been weaponized to label the LGBTQ+ community as “groomers” and has fueled a slew of hostile legislation and policies aimed at erasing the discussion of LGBTQ+ related issues in schools, removing LGBTQ+ books from schools and public libraries and, especially, to ostracize, defame and harass transgender people.
  8. As far as LGBTQ civil rights certainly they should extend to LGBTQ youth as well. Also consider that many children have LGBTQ parents and they need their families value affirmed too. Compare to racial civil rights. Are those only for adults?
  9. The grooming attack line is pure anti LGBTQ right wing propaganda
  10. There's that woke thing again. So according to you LGBTQ civil rights are woke thus bad? Can you even define woke?
  11. A sense of humor can be charming.
  12. There is no calm way to respond to such utter tripe so agree to disagree.
  13. This isn't about predation or grooming. That's just part of a right wing fear mongering agenda that has nothing to do with reality.
  14. I wouldn't have done that event if I was Central. Corporations are looking for good PR not to inflame controversy. But the core idea of messaging to LGBTQ youth who do certainly exist that their lives have value is excellent and fair minded people should support it.
  15. Depending on what age of the children really. Straight pride is always code for homophobia. Straight people aren't marginalized by societies. Straight youth don't commit suicide because they're straight.
