Assuming they haven't killed themselves due their uninformed shame or gender/sex based bullying by uninformed peers. Or just had their mental health seriously and unnecesarily damaged by then.Final point on this topic. Nothing wrong from a moral or romantic perspective, but there are some negatives and downsides they will endure such as not being able to naturally conceive children with the one they love or higher risk of HIV (for a male).
Now if by the time they hit puberty they have struggled with a particular gender identity and tested it as far as it can and definitely want to change gender or date someone of the game gender - then fair play and fully in support of that choice. They clearly have gone through the range of emotions and reached the conclusion that they are gay etc.
What a really odd thing to say.Had a friend who came out and despite him being relieved he could finally form a romantic relationship after a while the whole family aspect to it and even the sexual began to depress him.. he clearly had feelings for guys but the thought of not being able to properly have a family from a biological standpoint was a issue for him despite there being alternatives such as surrogacy and adoption. Likewise the thought of never really being able to enjoy unprotected sex without in the back of his mind having the higher susceptibility to STD also worried him.
I just don’t think we should interfere with that process too early as at the moment scientifically we can’t really 100% determine what impacts an individuals sexuality. Nor do I agree with leaving it to parents altogether and not teaching kids about LGBT at all. All I’m asking for is some compromise between different cultures and values. At the moment there are two schools of extreme thought .. your religious zealots who are totally against LGBT teaching in any form and at any age and the super liberal western imperialists like in this thread who are happy for their kids to cross dress aged
3 and watch porn at 7 because they’ll come across it anyway.
Kids cross dress all the time as a part of play. And literally nobody apart from paedos think 7 years olds should watch porn.
This thread is about school kids being made aware that there are a range of sexualities and gender identities. That is it.
