The Boston Straight Pride Parade Actually Happened And People Were Not Happy

Which part is illegal?
I have a source for every single one

Gay people have zero protections in many places in quite a few the are specifically targeted by legislation

 

Sums it up perfectly

 

One of the dumbest posts I have ever seen on this forum.

 

In the present case, it most certainly is.

Congratulations on your English comprehension.

No, it's news to said couples who revel in the delusion of marriage which was legitimized by a fraudulent SC ruling.

 

Gays can marry and there isn’t a thing you can do about it...

 

Yeah, making it the woman’s choice really shows disrespect for them....

 

Are children being taught that Tourettes sufferers exist, and are no danger? How about Actuaries .. are they taught that Actuaries exist and are no danger? Or people with double jointed knees?

Adult sexuality should not EVER be under discussion amongst children. Period. But if children 'must' be sexualised (because creepy ****ing adults can't stand that last taboo), why in hell would you ever need to mention some very minor iteration of it? Lots of things 'exist' but are taught about, so don't even try that one again.

 

Progressives tell us women DON'T have a choice. You seem to be confused.

 

Of course.

 

He’s just trolling

 

It's illegal to discriminate on grounds of sexuality.

But more to the point .. how would an organisation know someone is gay unless that information was offered? It's illegal to ask for marital status in recruitment, and it's illegal to demand lifestyle information, etc etc etc.

 

Have actuaries been systemically discriminated against for millennia by *******s?

And it’s not, any more than talking about mommy and daddy or reading Snow White is discussing sexuality.

 

Why is it 'bad'? They don't care for homosexuality, so of course they want to see less of it in future.

 

If they don’t care for homosexuality then I suggest they don’t have sex with someone of the same sex. That was easy. You’re welcome.

 

It's not 1950! You're fighting battles that are long won.

Good. It should not be discussed. But there is still no justification for introducing 'non-sexual' gay material. All that does is confuse kids. Many parents actively oppose it, so such material is then a direct contradiction of the teaching they receive at home. If it related to something that occurred in 50% of us, it would be justified. But when it's like .. 3%, it's unsupportable.

 

Sure. Just as you're free to not vote for Trump. Or be a religious conservative. You won't mind if there is a lot more of both in future, right?

 

I don’t care how many religious conservatives there are. As long as they don’t push their agenda on me I couldn’t care less how many people want to believe in an invisible man in the sky.
As for Trump or any future presidents like him, it ultimately doesn’t matter to me. I don’t lose my mind over who is president because my life isn’t all that impacted by whoever is president. I continue on living my life unaffected by whomever is in office.

 

It was only a few short years ago that gay marriage bans were being passed in multiple states. So no, NOT long won.

Oh, nonsense. It doesn’t confuse kids at all, because it’s not complicated. Some kids have a mom and dad. Some kids have two dads. Some have two moms. They get it.

And the reason to include gay characters and families in education is because they are part of life. So EXCLUDING them is the political move — just like it would be political to deliberately exclude the accomplishments or existence of women, blacks, Jews, etc.

Too ****ing bad. Many parents oppose evolution, too. Many parents are racist. Should we coddle all of them, too? Of course not.

More importantly, an increasing number of students either have gay parents or know gay people. The school should not be treating gay people as if they don’t exist or are inferior or something to be ashamed of.

The school’s job is to teach reality, not hide from it. Promote being gay? No. Recognize that gay people exist and this is unremarkable? Yep.

 

1) if it's before today, then it's 'long won'. you don't keep fighting battles already won. that's something else.

2) of course it's confusing. kids aren't equipped with sufficient sophistication of thought to process that stuff, so you are literally messing with their heads.

3) we can't and don't include 'everything that can happen in life' in education. we never have. this fact alone puts the lie (big time) to such an argument.

4) you have no business doing or saying anything at ALL about a parents' position on anything, as long as it's legal. it's not a school's job or right to comment, either for or against. doing so necessitates a preferred ideology, and that's .... well, you know where that can go, dontcha? it's exactly how and why gay people were discriminated against back in the day. you want more of that? or less? if less, then TOLERANCE is required, and absolute separation between schools and any given politic or ideology. just because it's going your way today, you're prepared to throw the whole lot under the bus. nice.

5) there are an increasing number of children of divorced parents, also. should we teach kids it's okay to get divorced? this is the problem when schools start dictating ANY of that 'life skills' stuff. that's not their job.

6) no it bloody well isn't their job! their job is to teach academics, and academics ONLY. personal and life skills are parents' responsibility .. and CHOICE. if parents want their kids to be Nazis, they should be allowed to raise nazis. None of my business, and none of yours. And DEFINITELY none of a schools business. again, because it's going your way at this moment, you want to throw all progress and tolerance under the bus. unbelievable.

 

Um, wow. Okay, Let’s just leave that out there to marinate.

No, it’s really not. My kids and their entire cohort grew up aware that sometimes a man and a woman marry, and sometimes a woman and a woman marry. Nobody was confused by anything. There is literally no evidence of any sort to support the “confusing” argument.

Um, schools teach a lot more than math. They teach history. They teach civics. They teach reading and English by having students read actual books. You seem to be suggesting that gays and any other group you are uncomfortable with be excluded from all those things.

Don’t want to inject “sexuality” into kids’ education? Then we would have to remove everything that reflects or promotes heterosexuality — no more “Snow White”, no mention of husbands and wives, for God’s sake, no depiction of anybody kissing!

Do you see how silly that is?

I agree. But neither is it the school’s job to coddle every parents’ prejudice. Schools will teach that blacks are equal to whites, even if some parents think otherwise. Bigotry toward gays is not some special, more privileged form of bigotry that schools must respect at the expense of their educational mission.

To repeat: Promote homosexuality? No. Pretend it doesn’t exist? Also no. Act as if it is wrong or shameful? Also no.

Schools should treat divorce as it is — a common state, without a value judgement attached. Remember that many students will either have or know divorced parents. Do you really think the school should engage in divorce shaming?

Same with gays. Recognize that they exist, with no value judgement attached.

 

10% isn’t minor. It’s 35 million people.

And yes, most kids know what Tourette’s is
Most kids know what double jointed is
Actuary is a career path

Zero of these have ever been proclaimed to be dangerous, none of them have had decades of propaganda against them.

Children should not be sexualized and teaching that a princess can marry a princess does not sexualize them.
When they become sexually active they need to know the risks and dangers of such.

You have gone from semi-reasoned to not so much.

 

That simply isn’t true, I have provided you several examples and can provide many more.

In adoption I am sure both parents are there.
Same with renting a home, taking your child to the doctor.

One slip up saying my husband, if you are a male, or my wife, if you are a female, and the individual knows.
Have a picture on your desk, your boss knows — your coworkers know.

Some people also see wedding rings and ask about your spouse.

 

Why do the protesters in Hong Kong need flaunt their demand for political change? Why can't they just stay home and vote, like everyone else?
The Gay Pride parades are like a protest against the establishment.

All of government is stupid. I don't want to pay taxes for whatever government stupidity you support, but I have to.

Schools are the religious institutions of the state.
