A 7-year-old boy with a “longstanding crush” on Glee’s gay character Blaine as well as exposure to family friends in same-sex marriages says, “I’m gay.”
"Since that day, any time the word "gay" has come into conversation, he has happily announced to those around him, "I'm gay!" He says this very naturally and happily, the same way he announces other things that he likes about himself. Mention that a person is tall and he'll quickly add, "I'm tall!" If he hears the word "Legos," barely a second passes before he says, "Legos. I love Legos." Saying "I'm gay" is his way of telling people: this is something I like about myself."
His parents are proud and happy, although they realize sexual orientation is fluid and 7-year-olds are even fluider, so this classification might not last.
"Do I think this is the last word on his orientation? I don't know. He's 7. Maybe as he gets older he'll tell me something else, but it's just as likely that he won't. But really, that doesn't even matter. What matters is right now. And right now I have a young son who happily announces "I'm gay." And I'm so proud to be his mom."What's that old saying? Children learn what they live . . .
Why is a 7 year old watching Glee?
ReplyDeleteThis case proves that gay rights activists' plan to indoctrinate children is working.
I think that's brilliant. I mean, this doesn't mean the kid actually is gay or that he'll still identify as gay when he grows up. What it means is that, because of shows like Glee and because of all those who live publicly gay lives, this child has no problem with homosexuality. That's what gay rights activism is all about. Not "making people gay", but making people realise that "gay is okay". And children are the most important group to be taught that message.
ReplyDeleteTo the "anonymous" person who says "gay is okay" have you seen the statistics that show people who identify as "gay" are at higher -risk for all sorts of things such as suicide and mental illness? Are you saying that increasing mental illness and suicide is "okay" with you?
ReplyDeleteUh.... do your homework. The reasons LGBTQ children are more likely to kill themselves is because they are bullied, brutalized, marginalized... Are YOU "okay" with THAT? How about work for social change? How about wake up and accept that gay kids are just as awesome as non-gays.
DeleteOf course all children are awesome. And it is a normal stage of childhood development for children to be attracted to their own gender. What is NOT normal is encouraging children as young as 7 to claim and practice an abnormal sexual identity
DeleteGee, maybe the reason gay people are more suseptible to mental problems is because of people like the author of comment #3.
