I see a lot of people say they don't want the LGBTQ+ community shoved down their throat, but what does that mean exactly. Does that include seeing gay character's on TV, social media, movies or.............a beer can? Where are members of the LGBTQ+ community allowed?
To start I'd say there shouldn't be a teenaged boy in the girls bathroom when my 6 year old daughter needs to use it.
Isn't explaining the world to your kid part of being a parent?
Don’t want to go into the men’s public bathroom, locker room, dressing room etc and be surprised…..at seeing it get “shoved” down your throat (or anyone else’s).
I'm having to explain something to a six year old that's being forced on me. Two boys kissing isn't normal. I'm well aware of how to parent. I don't need any advice.
If you’re speaking of me, I used the phrase literally and figuratively…..sorta metaphorically speaking (fig).
Any where they want to go. You libs are the people trying to ram their agenda down people’s throats. If you progressives would quit trying to separate the races and the sexies and try to bring people together to help this country instead of trying to destroy it things would be a lot better.
it wasn't directed at you in any way. it was an observation addressed to a different poster - you used the phrase as it long has and continues to be used - routinely - and in this context: to describe the mere existence of LGBTQ+
Depending on the definition of normal, I agree. You don’t have to like anyone in this life, but I would hope you would support them having the same rights and freedoms that you enjoy.
I do other than being told that I have to accept the lifestyle as normal or else I’m the one with a problem.
Think those liking or admiring Joe are dwindling. This is t your fathers Joe Biden.
Some people think praying to an imaginary god is abnormal, but I’m perfectly accepting if that is what you want to do, including you praying in the middle of Times Square on Good Morning America, if the mood so strikes you.
But I’m not making you accept the imaginary god and calling you a hater for not doing so.
We were discussing the lgbt mess and when I said you know it is evil, your response was to change the subject and basically say, "Donald Trump is evil too" when Mr. Trump was not the subject.
Vice Versa ? Yeah. No way they gonna get an anus to fit in a penis
I think it's fine to be uncomfortable with it, so long as you don't restrict their rights.
Should I be called a hater and vilified for being “uncomfortable” with it?
Not by me. No one can help how they feel, it’s about the choices that you make in how you treat others that matters.
I agree with the no, but we shouldn't know you (applies to anyone) are uncomfortable.
Agreed. Not going to give you a dirty look or judgement if you decide to pray nor think anything in my head to the effect. Likely just ignore you as has nothing to do with me. Same with two guys kissing in public.
You are correct: SOME people do. According to Psychology Today, bout 7% of the world‘s adult population is atheist. Expanded further, to the superset of “non-religious”, the percentage is roughly 16.5% of the worlds adult population.

isn’t part of being a parent shielding your kids from what you think they shouldn’t see
The SCOTUS has found clothing choices to be protected free speech under the first amendment. If drag performers are getting naked, fine, but most of these bans are not about nudity.
You keep going off the rails introducing new irrelevance that doesn't support the issue.
I’m with you regarding sports. Anyone refusing the acknowledge the biological advantages of someone with male hormones competing against women is ignoring reality and undercuts the rest of their arguments defending trans people.
Under federal laws protecting against discrimination in education – including Title IX, Title VI, and the U.S. Constitution's equal protection guarantee, public schools cannot enforce a dress code based on gender- or race-based stereotypes about appropriate dress or appearance.
“I’m not sure what the best answer is but demanding that everyone use the bathroom appropriate for their birth sex only is not good for anyone.”
So what clothing is causing a problem here? Nothing in the original article you linked said anything about specific clothing being banned. It mentioned drag shows.Under federal laws protecting against discrimination in education – including Title IX, Title VI, and the U.S. Constitution's equal protection guarantee, public schools cannot enforce a dress code based on gender- or race-based stereotypes about appropriate dress or appearance.
