[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] Definitely I think heterosexuals have it easier in this world, OP, by several degrees of magnitude! This is why parents may resist on some level when a child decides to live their true life. Safe progressive bubbles are the exception, not the rule. People are harassed and die every day because of their "deviant" orientation in a lot of places in this world. As an international family with international friends, we are acutely aware of this. [/quote] OP here. [b]I am aware of many sorts of problems faced by people all over the world that have nothing to do with their orientation. The world is a hostile place, as I mentioned. We cant change the world overnight with the love for our child, but its the best place to start. Safe Progressive Bubbles are the foundation of every bit of progress that has been made in the history of the movement, ever. That is why I wrote this post.[/quote] PP you replied to. The bolded is true, and one of them is skin color. We have lived this. When moving to a new area, in addition to researching commute, schools and neighborhoods, I have some additional criteria for racial tolerance, because I cannot put my family at high risk of discrimination or worse. Another one is special needs, which we also have in the family. My point is that the accumulation of visible differences WILL make your life more difficult. People who are different cannot change that about themselves. They have to learn who to trust and they must stay vigilant. [/quote]
