The most common argument (excuse?) I’ve heard is from parents, who are seem to be afraid to have to discuss the subject with their kids. If you listen carefully, some parents will even suggest their kids run a risk of ‘picking it up’.
Um,yeah....That doesn’t make a lot of sense to me either.
I’ve no idea how it works. People do a lot of things, and for the most part their sexuality is not on my radar. Whom they love just isn’t any of my business. At most I’m just happy they have found another human to share their lives with.
I will say this: Growing up, I was ‘programmed’ to hate homosexuals. This was pretty standard in far rural Texas. It was something you didn’t dare question. If I can leave that mindset, I suspect others will too.
