A Fetus is not a person under the 14th amendment.
Christians are Forced Birth Fascists against Human Rights who indoctrinate and groom children. Prove me wrong.
No it doesn't.
1) It's literally a young adult book, and it being in the database does not mean it is being used as teaching material or that librarians actually are letting kids "as young as 8 or 9" read it.
2) This Book is Gay is basically baby's first introduction to the LGBT community and its talk of sex apps and the like is in a context of discussing how people in the community have found ways to find each other given that it's kinda hard to spot it on sight. But again, it's aimed at young adults, not kids.
Y'all should be required to read whatever books you complain about before you're allowed to have an opinion, tbh. But then again I'm not surprised you lot automatically assume anything to do with queer people must be sexual.

Well yes, we know you wouldn't because you lot desperately hope by erasing queer people from the public eye you can prevent your kids from turning out to be one of them.so I would not want my kid of about 8-9 year old to hear about that at that age.
It doesn't work like that and all you end up with is a bunch of kids that are even more confused and likely to act in unsafe ways because they're not able to properly contextualize their feelings due to a complete lack of information. Oh, and they end up hating you for being shitty parents, to boot.

Basically, you don't have a leg to stand on for your pro-erasure attitude. Just like all the parent activists.

So you can't prove it, then?
Don't come crying to us when you need someone to take care of you in later life but your kid's cut off all contact with you for being a shitty and intolerant parent, then. That's usually what happens to homophobes with queer kids, lol.

No hun, I'm not doing your homework for you. Put up or shut up, Mister Hooke.
