Your 'basic thoughts' are nicely thought-out and articulated.
That's a full week later. Looks to me like some greedy bastards were hoping to milk the shock publicity cow for all it was worth.
In my experience? There is no self-regulation among broadcasters. Unless someone else is screaming about it, they are not going to care.... unless it's about, I dunno, dissing white Christian folk, which I'M SURE they would be bothered by.
I can't believe one of those idiots is a father, firstly for the fact that it saddens me he bred and secondly for his attitude concerning his own child. What parent in their right mind would EVER, jokingly or otherwise, say they would beat their kid for finding the courage to come to them and tell them how they feel
That father. That father and all the people who are so bigoted and hate-filled that they CAN NOT see the child they raised and loved past that child's sexual orientation and life choices.
So, during the hours of work and school commute, you're going to try and spread your hatemongering ideals and then claim that you don't have the type of influence people are saying you do? That is total bullshit. BULL. SHIT.
Word. You DO NOT get to speech publicly and then claim it doesn't matter. You're dead-on about free speech being abused, but you know what?
Freedom of speech is in our first amendment. Our country was literally born under the idea that words are powerful enough to create countries, incite revolutions, and is SO IMPORTANT that our right to speak freely is one of the first rights given to America's citizen's.
So yeah, you fuckers, what you say matters, and you owe it to your country and your fellow citizens to use your right wisely. Which you aren't. In any way. At all.
So, if your son happens to put on one of his mother's dresses, it does NOT mean that he's gay. And if your daughter prefers to play with G.I. Joe dolls (admit it, men... it's not an "action figure" when you can take its clothing off. it's a fucking doll)rather Barbie, that doesn't mean she's a lesbian. It just means they're being curious, which is NORMAL CHILD BEHAVIOR.
Yep.
. And if by the time their child has grown a bit and is still convinced they are the wrong sex... then, and ONLY then, should they sit down and discuss what to do about it. Jumping the gun and getting your five-year-old son a sex change so that he can become a girl is NOT good parenting. What happens if, down the line, that child realizes that they were really meant to be a male? What do you do then? A parent's job is to not only allow their child to be who they are but to ALSO exercise authority when need be-- IN A NONVIOLENT AND EMOTIONALLY DAMAGING MANNER.
Agreed. With surgeries like that, it is really, really important that it's something that's been fully considered and, like you said, it not done at a very early age when a child is still exploring who they are.
