Okay! Let’s talk about it!🗣🗣🗣
“I don’t want my kids to see that! 🤬”
Im sorry but is two men holding hands actual pornography?
Is a wedding between two woman too inappropriate to be on daytime tv or children’s show? (Mad kids got two moms and mad kids got two dads, are THEY too young to know their own fucking parents you fucking fuck?)
Is a trans person existing immidiayely sexual?
Seeing queer things in media is less about influencing your child, but more about giving the understanding that everyone that exists on this planet is different. And all people deserve respect. Do you know how much bullying would decrease? Suicide rates of lgbtq youth? The murder and mistreatment of trans people (especially black trans women)? The understanding that WE ARE POEPLE! We’re not some kink or fetish you need to sensor your child from until of age. Maybe if they knew we existed much sooner, and you raised them with love and compassion instead of hate and indifference, they wouldn’t be completely bigoted assholes. Do you also kno that queer kids can go, “oh shit, I’m not by myself. There are more people like me” AND THEN CHOOSE NOT TO KILL THEMSELVES.
Had I seen that as a kid I would have not have thought something was wrong with me. And not everyone grows up with accepting parents in loving households where being themselves is encouraged. Like I, my parents are lovely, but religious and highly opinionated, so their disdain is extremely apparent. Till this day I still struggle with actually loving, accepting, and embracing all of myself and all of my queerness because I was taught that I am wrong. So not having media to connect to, especially as a minor, will make you feel completely isolated, like you should hide, like you should feel ashamed, feeling like you exist only on the edges of society; not really quite part of the norm.
Just imagine, imagine a world where heteros and queers were actually equal. We all get the same exposer in media (POC and woman included!! Not just white gay men!!). We all have the same rights. No awkward stares of people “trying to figure out what you are”. The absence of disdain and looks of disgust when in the presence of a same sex couple, trans, or non binary person. Just imagine a world where love, understanding, peace, and harmony are at the helm instead of hate, bigotry, and division. Just imagine queer people existing without fear. Imagine not internalizing homophobia and having to unlearn it in your 20s/30s. Imagine your queer kid growing up knowing not to hide. THERE IS NO COMING OUT! Imagine straight people not needing to be an ally because there is love and there IS NO FIGHT!
There is no “gay agenda” 🙄 🤦🏽♀️ . But us trying to normalize our presence shouldn’t offend you. Us wanting to be treated like normal people shouldn’t offend you; BECAUSE WE ARE NORMAL PEOPLE. But you NOT believing we’re normal people, that, that right there IS the problem. I am not an alcoholic beverage, I am not a tobacco product, I am not pornography, I am not a DMX album. Putting a parental advisory on my existence and calling it explicit is dismissive and damaging. I had my first kiss at the age of 6. IT WAS WITH A GIRL!!! STOP TELLING KIDS THEY’RE TOO YOUNG TO KNOW THEMSELVES!! But the hypocrisy of it all is when your first grader comes home from school and YOU ask if they have a crush and expect it to be of the opposite sex. I used to come home and just make shit up. Telling my mom i had a crush on a boy named De’Andre simply because he wasn’t ugly, knowing damn well I like Kiara. Be damned if they tell the truth. Be damned if Tasha got a crush on Kiana. Be damned if Brian shares his crayons with Luke because it makes him smile. Queer kids exist and y’all would know that if we weren’t conditioned into silencing ourselves for the comfort of others and then “coming out” later in life because we’re “old enough”. FIRST GRADERS HAVING A CRUSH IS NOT SEXUAL! A 13yr old GIRL KNOWING SHE LIKES GIRLS IS NOT SEXUAL!THEY ARE CHILDREN, THEY ARE PURE AND THEY ARE INNOCENT!!! 🤬
Get the fuck over yourselves. Your kid seeing two men holding hands is not the equivalent of gay porn. Two women kissing should not be a fetish. Stop sexualizing our relationships. You believing queer relationships equate to lusty bedroom stuff and not loving companionship, is a problem. You deminish us, paint us out to be predatory, then ignore us. Y’all are fucking ridiculous 🙄😒.
