re: #263 Obdicut

No problem. I just mainly don’t want you to think I was smearing your intentions. I wasn’t, in the least, nor ever would. I know you have only the best of hopes for your kids in all ways.

The very sad and obvious reason to not want a gay child is knowing that they will be vilified for what they are by so many people, and one can’t shield them from that.

Hopefully that will soon change.

I don’t want a promiscuous child. Exploring every possible desire necessarily requires promiscuity. My child may have latent desires for all sorts of things. If they exhibit heterosexual tendencies, I will encourage those and discourage all others. If they exhibit solely homosexual tendencies, I will do my best to guide them in that respect as well. Sexual experimentation outside of a committed, long-term relationship is something I’ll discourage as best I can within the bounds of good parenting.

I never said I don’t want a gay child. I said that a heterosexual child is not benefited by an encouragement to explore other avenues.
