You ask how I am raising my kids to be homosexuals. From watching straight people enforce a sexual orientation on their children, I learned how to say no. One of the most amazing things about cisgender straight people is that they don't think they have a sexual orientation or a gender identity. The Don't Say Gay bill was recently passed in Florida and it states that children should not be exposed to discussions of sexual orientation. I think it would be great if schools stopped teaching gender as an innate expression of what is in one's pants. I believe that young children can learn about love and family and different family structures without having it framed in ways that are overly sexual or romantic. Straight society likes to play that way. The irony is that mainstream straight culture enjoys aggressively sexualizing young children in ways that would make people think we are child abusers. Most people don't even notice that heterosexual grooming is a constant phenomenon. What is heterosexual grooming like? A set of practices and expectations based on a child's assigned gender at birth encourages the formation of a romantic and possessive relationship between the child and their parents. Straight parents seem to be obsessed with the idea of a romantic bond with the parent if they have a penis baby or vagina baby. This is really upsetting to me. In the context of family, it sexualizes children. Yuck. Gay marriage is likened to bestiality, so maybe we all need a thicker skin, right? If you are a straight person who is feeling defensive, I suggest you explore that. Is it because you are used to being part of a multi-generational offense for Team Straight without even noticing? Straight and cisgender people benefit from and uphold the system. You can actively opt out, but it takes a lot of work to do that. Many parents think they say gay, but they don't, and they never do when talking about their children's sexualities. They may love and discuss people of the same sex in their life, but they also think their kids are straight and cisgender. Most kids will be raised straight until they come out. There is still a high chance that your children will end up straight and cis, but they are more likely to be gay than they are to be a doctor or a lawyer or a professional athlete. The most disturbing thing about heterosexual grooming is how young a child is when it begins and how aggressively it is carried out throughout the course of a child's life. When infants from heterosexual families are brought home from the hospital in tiny onesies with slogans like Daddy's Girl, this business starts. Daddy says no dating. My heart belongs to my mom or Boob Man. I know, I know, this is all in good fun, if your idea of forcing a sexual orientation on children before they can say "Dada" is a good idea. When children become verbal, it doesn't stop. Some people think that toddlers are major heterosexual flirts. The way some adults talk, these kids always seem to know to make eyes at anyone with a different set of genitals. My bisexual brain can't comprehend how they fine tune this ability at such a young age. It is almost as if parents are creating a world where there is only one way to be and they project that onto their children. Many parents think they say 'gay,' but they don’t do it often, and they never do when talking about their kids’ sexualities. They may love and discuss LGBTQ adults in their life, but they imagine and believe their kids or the kids they know are straight and cisgender. Even in the most liberal of households, most kids will be raised as straight until they come out as otherwise. In elementary school and adolescence, this blind indoctrination continues with daughter/daddy dances, overprotective father culture, and teasing kids that they are each other's boyfriend/girlfriend if they have friends who are opposite sex. Mainstream Hetero society decided to take all of their twisted Freudian business and treat it like a public to-do list rather than save it for therapy. I thought heterophilia forced on kids was disgusting, but it gave me the idea that I could raise my children with a preferred sexual orientation from the very beginning. Although I am bi, my wife and I decided to go full-on gay with our kids, and I think it is working! As soon as our daughter came home, she was obsessed with her breasts. As she grew up, most of her friends in preschool were girls, and we knew there was something more between them. We signed her up for softball so she could meet other lesbians. She's more of a high sexy person. We will let her go as soon as she finds a girlfriend or a wife. Oh my! Moms can dream. It has been awkward when kids talk about their straight dads and moms at school. It is difficult to make sure our son is gay. We already have a perfect husband for him, another boy his age. They kissed through the bars of their cribs. They couldn't speak yet, but why wouldn't we know they had a spark? We are doing everything we can to encourage his gayness, like only allowing him to listen to show tunes and Britney Spears. We just have to make sure that our kids understand that the only appropriate desire they can have is desire for their same gender. Hetero and cisgender people are not the only ones who assume the world because of our culture's preference for straight and cis identities. It's rare for people of the same sex to be told that they have a future. We were denied a legacy. Our histories are not known. Our contributions have been denied. Our lives are not good. Our love is not safe. Because of this, many people still think we have to be straight or cis to have a future worth living. I think some of the politicians and parents who support the Don't Say Gay bill believe if we don't talk about the LGBTQ community to kids, they won't figure. We know that is not how it works. No matter what parents do, you can be gay, bi, or trans. Even if my wife and I spent every waking moment trying to force a gay agenda on our kids, they may still turn out straight. That is not what this is about. Growing up in a world where you don't see examples of yourself because everything favors straight and cis people has consequences. You believe you aren't worthy of being seen or heard and that can lead to believing you shouldn't even be here. Kids will feel safe to be themselves if we teach them about our lives and history. That could mean that more kids end up coming out as part of the LGBTQ community and that will mean more people in the community. It's not because of learning about us. It makes them feel okay to be who they are, and gay, or straight, or any other identity, really, that's what we should all want for our kids, isn't it?
