Ok let's put reason into this. Watching homosexuals kiss personally disgusts me it does not want to make me try it. If I was a homosexual it might turn me on but it definitely wouldn't turn me into it. It may give the message to Those that are homosexual that the behavior is part of the human condition and may have these people feel Better about themselves and to stop hiding in a closet. There is going to constantly be a percentage of the Human species that are going to be this way and the only thing that will affect nature is that they will not contribute to the gene pool unless they are forced by society to act heterosexually.

@JujuWoman "It adds nothing to the improvement of society" Except for fighting against the oppression that millions of people face against every day. Aside from this, I don't think a single positive storyline about transgenderism ever being aired on TV before. It's amazing how ONE small plot from ONE tv show is enough to disturb you that much! Get out of your bubble and remember that there are people who fight every single day to achieve just some recognition from society. At the end of watching the show, I'm sure you were slightly disturbed, and then forgot about it, going on with your day. At the end of watching the show, that "0.3%" has to go out and face a world that wants to do nothing but spit in their faces.

I HATE when people say that watching a show about someone LGBT or listening to music by someone LGBT will make you LGBT. This is a show that promotes tolerance for people and their relationships. Especially considering the show has a high school setting and is watched mostly by people in that age group, I can't think of a more relevant or fantastic message for a show to have. If they are happy in a relationship and it is safe and loving, it's none of your business. Doesn't Bill O'Reilly want us to believe he is a very important and busy public figure, and wouldn't you imagine this means he has better things to do than whine about a show that doesn't hate gay people as much as he? If you hate people because of the way they love, you are truly the stupidest person ever, and that says more about you and your problems than any problem you perceive the gay person to have.

cont. If my child ever asked me about relationships and what it means to be LGBT, I would say the same thing as if they were to ask me about straight love or relationships. I would say, "People often spend time together and sometimes they fall in love." If they're happy together, it should never matter their sexual preferences. They deserve to be treated with respect, they deserve their time in the spotlight for their talents no less than straight people do. Any suggestion to the contrary is hateful and ridiculous. The show is promoting respect for your peers. The show will not make your child gay. The show wants you to know that if you have a problem with someone just because of their sexual preferences, it's not their fault. It's your fault and your problem.

This is, of course, absolutely ridiculous. She is acting like a big, horrible, graphic explanation is needed when your 8 year-old child asks you about boys wearing dresses and singing on TV. This requires no different explanation than the one required when your child asks about straight love or people's personal relationship preferences, whatever they may be. This is especially true in the context she put it, basically saying her child is too young and naive to understand complex relationships and to explain would be tedious, graphic or inappropriate. If your child is too young to understand or be confused by the show, they won't ask about it.
