if you think you’re ready to have children, but you wouldn’t love them if they were gay, trans, disabled, etc. then you aren’t ready to have kids

i would love them no matter what but I wouldn't enable it until they're old enough to actually make their own decisions

i’m assuming that goes for your straight children too? No dating at all until they’re old enough to make their own decisions? You can’t have a dating rule for your gay kids but not for your straight ones

wdym by not enabling it?? 😭😭 kids experience and feel these types of things. Obv thinking ab it is gross but like forbidding them from dating or exploring their sexuality at all is just going to make them grow into an unhealthy and sexually repressed adult

i'll let them go on dates at the appropriate age, but i won't enable a gay lifestyle till they know what they want. i'd prefer they experiment with normal stuff first. but i will always love my child no matter what they do or who they are.

a child? newborn to school age. Teenagers should be taught but it should not be enabled. Kids younger than that should experience childhood not sex.

no i will not forbid them from dating (once they turn 14-15) but i will encourage experimenting with normal relationships first, and if they want to be gay when they can make their own decisions thats fine. im not gonna encourage them to be gay because they thought they were at 13, for example. gotta let the brain develop.

that sounds like it would be really discouraging for your child to hear from their parent after coming out :/ and the kid getting into a straight relationship just for the sake of proving they're not straight would be pretty unfair for their partner. I know that you're just saying what seems reasonable to you but if you're encouraging them to "try out" being straight but you're against encouraging them to be gay then you aren't supportive of them

i will be supportive of them in the lifestyle of their choice once they know what lifestyle they want

a 15 year old dosent know what lifestyle they want and I do want them to experiment normally first, so they don't mess up their brain development. once they know what they want and i know they know what they want, they will be supported and they will always know they're loved.

You're talking about this with the existing bias that being gay is abnormal. and being gay isn't going to disrupt their brain development 😭 sure, they could be wrong and grow up and realize they actually aren't but they'll figure that out on their own. What do you assume is a "gay lifestyle"??

i mean statistically speaking it's not normal. i'd not wrong, but it's not normal either. and it does change the way you're brain develops, that's a scientifically proven fact. i'd rather them grow up and figure out they're gay than do gay stuff and grow up to realize they're not. a gay lifestyle is doing gay things. so if you're a male, having relations with other males is gay. vice versa for females.
