These events are what saves many children from suicide. Would you rather have a trans child or a dead child? 

A direct citation of research to support your claim would be appropriate.

I would hope that all children have no understanding of Lesbian, Gay, Bi-sexual, Trans or Queer (LGBTQ) sexuality or gender preference as they are children (and I would include hertero sexuality as well). As children transition to adulthood then that discussion should be available. but for children no. 

 

So when is the straight pride festival - In the interests of gender and sexual balance shouldn't all us old boring straights have the opportunity to parade our sexuality around town? 

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.

It's quite offensive to suggest people that obviously exist that they don’t.

It's sort of a psychological genocide.

No it isn't. It's all about ensuring that children can have a childhood and be protected from predatory adults. If activities previously reserved for adults should be allowed for children, do you also advocate abolishing the age of consent, and allowing children to go out and get drunk? 

[Jingthing]

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.

You are not being serious surely? So it's not LGBT celebrating but all about saving trans brats from topping themselves? Of course plenty appear to be suicidal after transforming and regretting it, or finding out not possible for them to have kids of their own. The whole business is confusion and mental illness, leave it until they grow up, if ever.

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.

Compassion for what? a minuscule percentage of mixed up kids who apparently will kill themselves without rainbows, drag queens and trans propaganda, how about some compassion for normal kids?

No matter what opinion someone has, Central is a shopping mall and they should not do controversial social or political topics....Neither these I agree with nor these I don't agree.

Very true. These people label concerned parents as "far right" in an effort to denounce and sideline them so they can go after their kids

It's grooming, and the perpetrators should be put in prison. They hide behind LGBTQIA rights to go after children. 

It is nothing of the kind.

Ageee to disagree.

There is no calm way to respond to such utter tripe so agree to disagree.

I'm genuinely curious, because I can't fathom how your mind works: if children should have access to the adult realm of sexuality, do you support abolishing the age of consent and allowing children to go out and get drunk?

That's a fact. Even the bottle of mouthwash I bought a while back had pride stuff all over it. What on earth for? 

 

Marketing people are so hooked on the latest woke fads that they don't care about alienating half of their customers. Bud Light and Gillette come to mind.

There's that woke thing again.

So according to you LGBTQ civil rights are woke thus bad?

Can you even define woke?

It was a legitimate question. If you believe that children are to be granted access to adult pursuits, why some and not others?

Fully agree.....

I am terrible sorry that I don't drink Bud Light, because I would like to boycott it....
I absolute don't need some pride advertising for a beer....I also don't need some less disturbing topics on advertisement of beer. They can tell me something how it taste or if it has a new flavor, but I don't need women, real one or fake one in bath tubes on my beer. I would also not want conservative christian values....I may not notice such a promotion but still when I look for a beer I want a beer and not some social engineering

 

Gillette: on ebay you can find original Gillette cartridges for India, only sale inside India allowed....you can order them there in India for much cheaper than in Thailand, so at least they make less profit on you.

Agreed. It's a shame that the LGBTQIA rights movement has been infiltrated by a minority of paedophiles, who go after other people's children and smear concerned parents as "far right".
