and how do you know how grown up should act?
You tell me, I would love to hear from you.
not sure why u are asking this question because op is correct. disowning ur child because they’re gay or thinking gay people are perverts just because they are gay is very ignorant and childish thinking
its just that we make an assumption that grown ups should act wise and mature because society expects them to be just that, That is the norms that we expect of grown ups and yet we also fail to know that the norms that is raised to the previous generation was that gay people are not normal that they dont fit with the society they are raised into.. even though we are now encouraged to respect the lgbtq community, the previous norms was that lgbt was unrespectable and being associated with them will make you stand out and not fit into society.. Just like how we think in our current norms that lgbt is respectable the norms in the past was that that should not be the case... Thats why Im asking you how you think grown ups should act because I want you to realize that they did grow to what society has molded them to act base on their previous norms...
you can't blame them into thinking like that when its true they were raised in circumstances that makes them ignorant.. and its hard for them to change because that would mean or feel like they were being told that they have lived life in a wrong way.. put yourself in their position and realize that that would also be unfair for them
Yes, yes we can, how they were raised doesn't justify their bigoted actions. To say that it isn't their fault and act like they haven't done anything wrong is just disrespcetful to those who actually suffer and die because of people like her parents
exactly! stop babying grown adults…. my mom used to be very homophobic, because she was raised that way all her life.. however now she’s accepting. people are capable of changing despite their circumstances, they just refuse to do so.
so it’s not childish to be misogynistic because you were raised that way? it’s not childish to be racist because you were raised to be that way?
stop making excuses for these people.
i’ve known many people who have been raised to be a certain way who changed and stopped those ways of thinking. everyone is capable of changing their mindset. the human brain is more adaptable and smarter than you think.
we have every right to call these people immature and childish because that’s exactly what they are.
if they were so mature they’d be able to realize their ways of thinking were wrong
Being gay is equivalent to being a pervert, even my family thinks that. it's funny how straight people think gay couples are a group of perverts where as you(family) not supporting your children(lgbt) is right. Grown up are supposed to behave like a grown up.
