[quote=Anonymous]I think the lines have irreparably been blurred by extremists on both sides. I respect LGBTQ+...always have. If two women or two men want to get married...no problem. I respect same-sex marriage even though deep down I don't necessarily believe in it. I don't have to believe in something to respect it. Same thing with gender identity-- I respect those who have a gender identity that is outside the norm. I respect it even though I don't believe in it. Again, I don't have to believe in something to respect it. There is nothing wrong with the "you do you" mentality...as long as there is no harm done. The issue here is the all-or-nothing extreme mentality. There is a [b]huge [/b]difference between a book about two moms or two dads versus a book about gender identity and gender ideology. Huge. I'm not going to read LGBTQ+ books to my grandchildren that focus on gender ideology when they are in K-3. I don't believe gender identity-focused LGBTQ+ books belong in K-3 at all...except for the very basic ones that simply address that not all families have a mom/dad -- some have a step-mom, step-dad, two moms, two dads or even just a grandmother. But I honestly would not label these books as LGBTQ+ per se. [/quote]
