[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This is great!  Your daughter is very very brave, OP.

You should be proud of her for being bisexual.[/quote]

Why would anyone be “proud” or a child for being bisexual? That doesn’t make any sense.[/quote]

DP. Maybe proud that their kid is self-aware and not self-hating?

DP. Parents should absolutely be proud of their kids for being open with them and themselves, no doubt. But the original PP’s comment sort of gets at the crux of what I’m observing among my 8th grade DD and friends. It’s not so much about exhibiting gay pride as it is about declaring you’re gay so that you have something to be proud of. It’s like a game of telephone, and the kids have gotten the message that being straight is akin to being boring/homophobic/close-minded/Republican/… [/quote]

Nope. Being straight is fine.

Pushing the "gay agenda" trope is Republican/anti-LGTBQ+.

There are so many LGTBQI+ “pride” events.

[b]But it would NOT be “fine” to even think of a “straight pride” event, let alone actually attend one.

So it’s not really “fine“ to be straight.[/quote]

Oh dear, do you think we should have White History month too?[/quote]
