[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Pride events can be overtly sexual.[/quote]

So are movies, TV, and life. You mean seeing homosexuality.

I know, terrifying to see gay people kissing. Your child will be scared for life. [/quote]

NP here. It’s not the kissing that’s the issue. I have zero issues with sexuality, but I do have issues with men wearing only g strings tossing condoms at 8 year olds. [/quote]

So the condom-tossing actually happened to my 8-year-old when my kids (then aged about 4 and 8) and I went to the Pride parade in Baltimore. The 4-year-old didn't know what condoms were and didn't care. The 8-year-old might have known what condoms were; in any case, I said, "Those are condoms, men use them" and we picked them up and threw them back into the crowd. The kids are now in middle school and high school, respectively, and as far as I can tell, no damage has been done to them.

I saw lots of happy teenagers in rainbow clothes on the Metro yesterday. Indeed, happy teenagers in groups, unaccompanied by parents!

My 16 year old DD went with her friends for the first time. They went by themselves by metro and had a Blast!  She came home decked out in rainbows![/quote]
