[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Do you know if it weren’t for every other 13-year-old girl (including my own) coming out, I would be a lot more supportive. Girls like girls are that age. You know, before anyone is actually having sex. If it were a bit coming out, I’d be more supportive. Many of these girls are suffering from social contagion. Not all, but many. Biologically, I fail to accept that 30% of girls are gay and trans.  That’s the breakdown of my daughter’s friends. Big eye roll here. [/quote]

The vast majority of kids identify as hetero and cis gendered.  Most kids in school find friends that are similar to themselves.  Since you wrongly believe that such a large percent of kids are identifying as gay or trans, that implies that your child's friend group is largely queer and gender non-conforming kids.  It sounds like you're in denial.

We live in a time when people feel more comfortable coming out and being themselves.  I think this is a great thing.  We will have far fewer gay people in unhappy marriages that look hetero on the outside in the coming decades.  Obviously it will still happen with the most religious conservative families that will drill into their children's heads that being gay is "wrong".

The most valuable thing my religious conservative family taught me with their hate is that the god they believe in is fake.  They live in a hetero normative bubble and ascribe to a religion where they get to decide that they are going to heaven for living the easy life of a cisgendered heterosexual and the people that are gay or bi or trans get to live a much harder life and go straight to hell because their god decided to make them different.  It's really no surprise that this country is losing it's religion.[/quote]
