fear in the form of anger

This is amazing.

I think it's ridiculous that so many people give the reason: "How will I explain it to my kids that two women are kissing?"

Really? That's your biggest concern?

I don't know about everybody else, but I fully intend on teaching my children about other sexual orientations than just heterosexuality... is that so wrong? Furthermore, it doesn't even matter what you think is wrong or right, it's just a reality. Why wouldn't you want your kids to know? By not educating them, you're only teaching them that it's wrong or shameful.

Gah.

I think it's ridiculous that so many people think that what this couple did is okay. I personally think nobody should french kiss in public (get a room for goodness sake) regardless of their sexual orientation. Parents wouldn't have to explain anything if people would be considerate of others and save their displays of affection for their homes.

And some parents may feel that it is wrong and shameful, and that is their perogative. I'm sick of people thinking that we should just accept smoking in public, or people practically having sex in public simply because they feel it is their right to do so. What about our right to not be exposed to cancerous smoke or people's sexual desires?

Yes, truly ridiculous. It is one thing to accept homosexuality as a way of life and accepting people for who they are but it is a completely different thing to be thrust in to their lifestyle by way of inappropriate behavior in a public, family oriented, environment.

You may in fact teach your children about all sexual orientations but would you like for you child to see it or encounter it before you have discussed it. Not only that, those girls kissing is not different from the Janet Jackson incident. All children no when have breast but being exposed to them in a public, family oriented, environment is completely different.

I didnt appreciate that incident and I dont appreciate seeing people, particularly homosexuals make out. Especially, when I have to explain to my children what is happening. Why two women are kissing or two men are holding hands is not something I want to converse with my 4 year old about.

I think that people should be mind and considerate in places families attend.
