There is so much fear and closed-mindedness in this thread, it's nauseating.
Really? Don't teach the gay until kids are old enough to differentiate! That's 5.That's when they know what they're going to go for. And also, what is this fear of sex that seems to make people want to pocket their children and coddle them forever? That worked great for the Abstinence Program in schools, didn't it (ohwait... hi there, teenage pregnancy...).
That's wrong. Most people discover their true orientation during their teenage years. Some people claim they were gay since they were born but that's far from being the truth because nobody care about sex until the "Fun Factory" is open for business. Also, either your phrasing is wrong or you think that orientation must be taught and it's not a choice to the individual, then again, that is wrong.
It isn't a coddling issue as much at a relevance to their life. They don't need to know about sexuality until they are ready. Also, keep in mind that teenage pregnancy was a problem far before the Abstinence program. In the 1800, they would send the daughter away to some secluded relative where she would give birth and was then force to give it to adoption. It played for many, many years.
Societies work far better when there is a sense of honesty about life between ones adults and children. Children know you fuck. Get over it. You can lay there grunting into a pillow or biting your lip all you want during intercourse. Your kids will hear it.
You don't discern that kid are anything between 4 and 10 and teen are 11 and older? Also, Why do you think parent often let their children do sleep overs? They can't hear you if they aren't here. Basically, responsible parent would force sexual material on their children and it's prohibited and down right criminalize in most part of the world. You should look your local bills of right or whatever you have that describe the laws of your country.
Give LBGT people positive role models. It's easy to do without coming across as flamboyant. In fact, it's been done before (as has been pointed out) subtly, in other shows/cartoons. So what the hell is the big outcry?
That is true. Dumbledore is a good example because his sexuality never came across in the books and movies. It was a wink at the mature audience and nothing more. What you are describing is nothing more then to forcefully spoon-fed that doesn't care by shoving it down their throat. Not Only do I think it's immoral but I'm sure it's illegal.
Just because a few of you have daddy issues because your father was afraid you'd catch 'the gay' doesn't mean you should continue on that cycle. You should instead fight to overcome it.
In this day and age, it's far from being a daddy issue. Gay is something often accepted and less marginalized as it was before. Theres vocal group going around, the pride parade and influential people that
claim to be are gay. All I see is a minority trying to get exposure at the cost of the children and that far more sickening when you realize that they don't judge nor think about sexuality.
