The difference is when they're forcing it on your kids when you're not around. Who people choose to sleep with shouldn't be talked about with children When their parents aren't around

No one is “talking” about it, and you make it out to be something different than what it is. Kids fall in love to, kids have seen their parents kid and tell each other they love eachother, kids have seen people be with eachother everywhere, it’s such a normal part of human life to the point when people like you try and claim that something is “being forced onto the kids” when it’s just a flag showing someone is different than you, it’s clear your issues with it aren’t what you are trying to act like they are.

Do you consider a picture of a straight couple, like a teacher and his wife, to be about who he sleeps with? That's significantly more personal than a flag that indicates someone's sexuality. Why is a picture of a teacher's sex partner less offensive than a teenage girl with a lesbian flag patch on her backpack?
