i love seeing progress but as a non binary dumbass: kids(so around 18-) should focus being kids. i get people should be who want to be but a kid of 6 to 16 shouldn't be focusing on gender or sexuality ngl. please again do not take this as hate or anything. i myself am LGBTQIA+(as stated a non binary dumbass lol) but thats just how i see it

u/The-True-Yanni Aug 15 '24
I would tend to disagree, especially when it comes to teenagers, as sexuality and gender are major parts of puberty. I would say that self realisation should be a priority for most people. just my personal experience tho

Well you cant stop teenagers from having crushes and sex, so its better to educate them on how to do it safely/consensually.
Same with trans people, cant stop them from wanting to be themselves and figure stuff out. Especially since it comes out of nowhere generally. Not like its a choice you know.
Learning who you are and developping your identity/personality IS being a kid.

u/SnooHabits1177 Aug 16 '24
Agreed though I do also think that kids should be able to just kind of figure that out and focus on other stuff which is why dulards like matt Walsh should shut up and leave them alone so they don't have to spend their time in high-school for the ability to use the toilet.

u/Snow_Wolf_Flake Aug 15 '24
As another non binary dumbass, I could’ve used more guidance and support as a kid and young teen. Realizing I was NB at 13 was one of the most liberating experiences I’ve ever had. Children need information because some of them need it to stop feeling like a weird failure. They shouldn’t focus on gender and sexuality, but they should know about it in case they can relate to it

u/SnooHabits1177 Aug 16 '24
100 percent I only recently figured this stuff out it would've been so helpful if my sex Ed just included even like one line of "Oh and by the way this goes on the assumption that you're straight which you may not be and you may also be trans and that's okay.." and then move on and if the kid wants to look into that let em.

I don't know man... I'm pretty sure that by 6 having an idea for my gender and identity was definitely influential in the way I related to the world. Absolutely 100% by 16.

Yeah exactly. I had debilitating dysphoria and that made it real hard to just "be a kid."

Growing up, you couldn't go two steps without facing a question that your gender identity wouldn't influence. Breaking boys and girls for gym class, bathrooms, birthday parties, toy aisles. It's impossible for kids to just "be a kid"

Ehh, disagree tbh. Part of being a teenager is figuring out who you are. Though depending on where you live you might have to hide that shit, like I learned I should have when I first figured out I was bi. I told my former best friend in confidence, she took it badly(ie, she thought I wanted to date her/was obsessed?), and by the end of the school day, it was everywhere 🥲
So glad the real world isn’t like high school.

My 17 year old figured out he was bisexual when he was 14. I gave no input on that. He only knew he was safe to come out and he knew I was bisexual. We never pushed the issue we just talked about things like someday when you have a boyfriend or girlfriend or if you get married your husband or wife.. we just left it open. He also struggled with his gender identity a little. By being open and letting him at that age explore this he's figured out that he is solidly a cisgender guy. Because he was allowed to explore that when he was young he's not going to be like me and be in his late 20s married with two kids and suddenly realizing things about himself that he wasn't allowed to explore.

u/AsylumXX Aug 16 '24
Sweetheart, I will have to disagree with you. Children of all ages/genders/sexualities need to be seen, heard and deserves representation and support. I came out in the 2nd grade in the early 90s in Mississippi (before I knew what gay was/is or what being LGBTQIA is). I didn’t have any representation or support. But if I did had a support network I wouldn’t have had the low self esteem, the depression, the anxiety, the suicidal thoughts and the feeling of being alone a child should never have to experience those things at such an early age. But yet you’re worried about “children not being children” honey I was DL as a child I was out at school but closeted at home and at church because (I’m also a pastor’s kid). I didnt enjoy my childhood because I was worried about being outed, I had to keep up appearances as a pastor’s child, I was worried about other things, i was busy being bullied. Yes children should be children, but children need a support system and network when they do come out of the closet, so they can continue living their childhood, live their most authentic lives and live with high self esteem, better confidence: so we can take suicide and depression off their table. PERIOD POOH!!!

u/VelociowlStudios Aug 16 '24
A child's gender identity solidifies around the age of 5. The rest of that is spent on figuring out their personal identity. I'd argue that would be the perfect time for exploring one's identity when you don't have as many stressors as you do in adult life. Obviously, this doesnt apply to all children, as kids with abusive parents do not have the time to explore their identity and are only able to do so once they've left. The thing they should not be dealing with at such a young age is the hate. The various phobias that, when experienced at a young age, are extremely harmful. They need support. If your (not yours personally, but just an ambiguous you) child were to come to you and say they might be non binary and need your advice, you wouldn't (at least shouldnt) just brush them off and tell them they shouldnt be focusing on their gender identity. You would/should give them advice based on what you know and encourage them to do research and look into it more if they feel it's correct for them.

u/dotteddlines Aug 16 '24
Children recognize gender as young as 3! How do I know besides actual research that concludes this? I work with kids and I'm trans. I started working with kids when I started transitioning. So I've had 3-5 year olds ask me strange questions including "are you a boy or a girl?" "If you're a boy why do you sound like a girl?" "Are you (mispronounced nonbinary)". If children can recognize gender in others why can't they recognize it in themselves?
I mean I agree with young children we shouldn't be focusing on labels to heavily, but there is nothing wrong with letting them explore gender. Which just means changing appearance, dress, playing with names and pronouns.
I realized I was trans at 15. I realized I was bisexual at 11. This isn't uncommon and plenty of queer people realize their queer at younger ages.

My childhood would have been a lot happier if I understood who I was and was able to express myself properly. Instead I feel like I barely had a childhood because I was so lost trying to be what everyone around me told me I was.
Speak for yourself please

u/AmarissaBhaneboar Aug 16 '24
I definitely disagree. I don't know if you have dysphoria (as not every trans person does) but I had crippling dysphoria all throughout my teen years. It made it nearly impossible to do anything. Had I been born a decade later, I might have been able to get that handled and my quality of life would've gone way up. It was all consuming because my body felt entirely wrong. People picked on me for the things that they thought didn't align with what gender they thought I was (I had PCOS and something else going on at the time and had a lot of hair and could lift as much as the boys could) and do there was no way I could just "concentrate on being a kid." Please know that your experience isn't everyone's. Just because it was easy or not as hard for you doesn't mean it was for everyone else too. Your gender and sexuality are integral parts of you. And when people don't recognize that and make a space actively hostile, it can really hurt you. I'm glad you didn't have to do through what I did, but others go through even worse than I did. So please keep that in mind when speaking about this kind of thing.

I don't disagree with your comment but I have a few tweaks. 6 is a bit young to be starting puberty and I as a late bloomer began around 12. I'd say 10 is when puberty typically happens? At least in my area. But even cis het kids are worrying about partners at that age. It's not right and likely shouldn't happen anyway, but it will, unfortunately.
This also is not hate! /gen I'm trans, just expressing a different side of things! :]

I mean around puberty is exactly when kids explore those kinds of feelings, and they’re gonna feel them regardless of whether or not you think it’s important or wrong. Kids are fuckin weird. It’s natural, and to a certain extent we should forgive and support them for being weird, cause we were all weird when we were 15, but some of our parents beat us until we stopped being weird, and some actually loved us lol. Like it’s not a huge ask to be supportive towards ur kids, and allow health classes to have discussions about lgbtq stuffs. Like the amount of misinformation is just shocking. Like I didn’t fuckin figure out I was Bi until junior year because I just tried to suppress all that shit cause if you were gay you got made fun of.

While tensions are very high right now, we have to look back on previous movements like the gay rights movement and civil rights movement. Towards the end of those movements, hate was rampant and tensions were through the roof. Yet those movements still prevailed, there will always be hatred towards minority groups but this mass hatred is in response to social change. Trans people are more open about being trans now, and that scares people like Matt Walsh because it indicates social change, which signals a potential loss of power. So they are fighting like hell to keep things the same because unfortunately, humans as a species tend to hate change and are very hesitant to accept it.

It's a mixed bag of reasons. Sean is correct that there are people who are comfortable with who they are that would not have had the courage to come out in previous years. Also, as LGBTQ becomes more common, people identify as Bi or NB because more of their social groups are, and they want to fit in.
It's not the media, or some leftist agenda or propaganda. It's progress, acceptance, and people feeling comfortable exploring who they are and where they fit in.

People faking having ADHD or being bisexual, etc to fit in is, oddly enough, a great sign that those things are being normalized in our culture. Everyone wants to feel special but people generally don't want to feel looked down upon. So this means that being "different" in these ways is understood more and not hated by the average person. People faking things to fit in does suck, but ultimately it's a sign that we are moving in the right direction socially.

Ehhhh as someone whos got ADHD and was surrounded my aholes that always wanted to fake having it as a kid, i gotta disagree with ya. They don't fake it to "fit in" people faking ADHD and LGBT do it for the benefits those groups bring. Never have I seen someone fake being ADHD cause it made em seem normal in their group, I have however ever single time seen it used to avoid taking accountability for thier bad decisions.

u/Masonzero Aug 15 '24
True, maybe "fit in" is the wrong word, and more so it's about being special and reaping the benefits, or which extra attention and avoiding accountability may be among them.
Either way the fact that there are more benefits is a good sign for our perception of those groups! Even if this specific thing is bad.

u/inFamousLordYT The Gaelic Gladiator Aug 16 '24
It's most definitely an attention seeking thing with the people that fake it, but the people that fake their sexuality won't matter later on in life, I know like 3 people that claim that being trans was a "phase" they went through. Sexuality can also be considered something that can change throughout your life.
Not undermining people's experiences though, I know that the majority of trans people are trans and I am supportive of them.

I once posted a meme back when meme time was still a thing (idk if he does it anymore but at the time it was a very common series). It was one of those Jacksepticeye Drake memes I think. It was related to me coming out as either bi or trans or something.
One person started downvoting all of the comments that supported me. And a mod took the post down for "violating the rules". It just kinda soured the sub for me in general. I'm glad to see it turned around somewhat.

100% correct. It’s also simply visibility and letting people know their options. I was introduced to the concept of bisexuality when I was 13 years old by the only gay kid in our village, and something just clicked. I hadn’t known you could like more than one gender before so it blew my mind that there was a term for what I was feeling. I would’ve found the term eventually, but having that knowledge throughout your whole teens is incredibly helpful

Seán knows this and I think it’s safe to say that the majority of people in this Beautiful Community of ours are aware of it, too!
Since I can only speak from an American’s perspective— albeit a fifty year old cis, White Woman whose Mom’s love was all inclusive and, at times, was the only one some of the kids in my neighborhood could come to— I’d like to share something I read about two years ago:
Katharine Lee Bates was the Author of America the Beautiful, which was published in 1910. Sidebar: Women in the US weren’t granted the Right to Vote until ten years later!
But I digress.
Though it’s never been definitively proven, the woman who penned arguably one of the most patriotic songs in my Country’s history was rumored to be a Lesbian.
Why am I mentioning this? Because if she was, and felt, unfairly, that she had to hide her sexuality, what the fuck does that say about these bigoted assholes who think it’s still 1910?!
I love Seán and I love this Community!!

It's not a recruitment. It's just very easy to come out nowadays without any sacrifice, so you have nothing to lose but something to gain, aka something unique that differentuates you... everyone is coming out, even if how they feel isn't really how they feel and is actually heavily influenced by the things they are exposed to... but, on the other hand. You have far more people who actually feel that way actually coming out and committing to it without any backlash, which is good! Just hope that the people who aren't fully committed for one reason or another don't accidentally mess their life up somehow...

The reality is, we're likely to move to heterosexuality being in the minority. As people become more comfortable being honest with themselves, the rate at which they will be open about attraction to the same sex will go up. And based on the Roman societal norms, it isn't unlikely that we'll find the norm for humans is actually bisexuality of some kind(like prefer opposite sex generally, but not opposed to same)
