RE: It's LGBTQ Awareness Month. Why?

in #lgbt6 years ago

Because there are still people, like you, that do not understand that LGBT+ people´s lifestyles are as diverse as lifestyles of straight people.

Because there are still people that murder LGBT+ people just because they are not straight. There are still families that abandon their children just becasue they are not straight.

About children, all scientific evidence supports the biologic origin of LGBT+. Education is important because some children feel different at very young ages and it is important to tell them we will support all of them no matter neither their sexual orientation nor the gender with which they identify themselves.

For me, this argument encapsulates the divisive nature of the movement. I in fact - if I am understanding the use of diverse in this context - consider everyone of us to be as diverse as each other. The label LGBTQ+ need not play a role in this at all. By saying "this group" is as diverse as "this group" all you are doing is driving a wedge between the two groups. But if you simply say, we are all as diverse as one another, there is no groups. Only a lot of individuals who understand how much they have in common.

In my life I have known two school children who committed suicide. I do not know anyone that was killed for being non-hetero. Therefore, I think it probable that far more children commit suicide as a result of bullying than LGBT+ persons who are murdered for their sexual or gender orientation. My question would then be, why does this group not rally for the plight of these bullied school children? The fact is, LGBT+ is a hate group that is anti-heterosexual. You can get into this group, as long as you are not straight. So the LGBT+ community only cares about bullied school children if they are not heterosexual.

In the West, where the LGBT+ movement is most prevalent, LGBT+ people are overwhelmingly accepted. Far more so than people born with ginger hair in the UK.

This sounds like a brazen lie, but if you can provide this science I will be very curious to take a look at it.

Education is important because some children feel different at very young ages and it is important to tell them we will support all of them no matter neither their sexual orientation nor the gender with which they identify themselves.

This is the logic of someone who has had their opinion given to them. If you had thought about this honestly I do not believe you would be advocating for this treatment of children.

Children are very impressionable. They have to be, for in their youngest years they are learning who they are through the observation and interpretation of their environment. Thus, it is expected that during those young ages the child will experiment with who they are. But, in the past, if a young boy were to put in his mother's high heels and go walking around, the family might laugh and then inform the boy that he is a boy. Now, because of this movement, the child is told it's okay, you can be a woman if you want. Why don't you try on these ones too? But this only exacerbates the confusion.

If a child started thinking they were a dog or some other sort of animal, which I think happens more often than them being confused about their gender, would it be right to encourage that child to be a dog if that's what they want? Would you encourage them to do so? I really hope not. Because a child is not a dog, and a boy not a girl.

This to me is child abuse. As a parent, one's job is to help with your child's confusion. Not nurture it.

Translation: Because I'm ignorant of it (and probably insist upon remaining so), it must therefore not exist.

Your experience is not the sum total of all human experience. Anecdotal, at best.

LGBT+ people would be quite content for you to stop obsessing over their preference for sexual partners or what bits of fabric they wear. Accusing them of being hate a group is not only hypocritical groupthink, it's known as "projection" in psychology.

Read again this paragraph of your post.

If raising awareness then speaks to the educating of the population on the correct use of language when speaking with an LGBTQ person, or on better methods of how not to offend such a person accidentally when communicating with them; then please someone tell me why?

So you do not think that is important, but at the same time you judge the way I express myself? Isn´t that a bit hypocrite ?

My question would then be, why does this group not rally for the plight of these bullied school children?

That is not a valid point. Whole humanity does not have to focus in one single problem to solve it, defending LGBT+ rights is not detrimental to fight bullying. In fact, LGBT-phobia is one of the causes of bullying.

This sounds like a brazen lie, but if you can provide this science I will be very curious to take a look at it.

Some genes along with some hormonal changes during pregnancy are correlated to homosexuality. Stress during pregnancy and the number of older male brothers are correlated to homosexuality in men. And these are only some examples.

If a child started thinking they were a dog or some other sort of animal, which I think happens more often than them being confused about their gender, would it be right to encourage that child to be a dog if that's what they want?

Transgender it is not a confusion about what a people think it is. They do not think their gender is wrong, they feel it. They are women inside men bodies and men inside women bodies.
