I have 4 year olds. I completely disagree.
As to the point of the thread, I'd prefer if parents decided what their kids watched over an area wide censorship, but I'm also a bit state's rights fan. If Alabama wants to do that, go right ahead.

You guys think gay is cool and normal, that’s fine. I have no problem with it but I don’t think it’s normal and don’t think normalizing it for small children is the right message. Sorry not sorry

It’s not that I’m afraid of telling them about it they’ll find out soon enough but I won’t be able to do so without making some point about how it’s not normal and just don’t want that to be anything they have to think about for as long as possible.

That's where I'm at too. Gay people exist and so does gay marriage. Life goes on, and it's better if you don't get all weird with your kids about it.

That applies to both sides. Most people only like hearing views that align with their own.

Well, you could, but you’ll chose to rant at the child when they ask instead of handling it the obvious way.

If you were put in a room and hooked up to equipment that could measure your arousal levels, could you be attracted to Brad Pitt?
There are tons of examples of people making choices that they shouldn't be enticed by. Tons: addictions, prostitution, transgender, ghey, abuse of elective surgery, pedo, cutting, and on and on and on. People excuse it away, for whatever reason. But its still a mental disconnect
Putting 'positive' examples in movies and TV doesn't make them any less of a choice, or any more acceptable. Pretty Woman didn't glam up the reality of what 'choosing' to be a prostitute is enough to make it a topic on childrens TV. And how many clients do you think pros are actually aroused by? And yet they are still able to interact
The ghey is a result of a mental disconnect, rooted in a rebellious, forced acceptance thought process. Similar to a girl with daddy issues. That's never gonna make an Arthur episode either. The very fact that almost every TV show and ads now requires a ghey character, is proof of the 'accept me dammit' attitude
Once again, there are multiple identical twin studies where one of the twins made an obvious diversion from the other. A choice. Science has completely abandoned a biological factor in the ghey. They are now looking at epigenetic possibilities (introduction of chemical changes in the womb).
BTW, how many straight weddings has Arthur featured? Probably none, because its strictly an agenda push, not just another aspect of life

At least one in the very first season. I didn't bother to look any more than that.
Got married in a church too. Quite the agenda.
Can't imagine having to explain that kiss to fragile children.

Utter nonsense!

They can run what they want and people can decide to watch or change to another station. What I object to even as a PBS supporter is public funding.
They are not objective in their news analysis programs . Like CNN, MSNBC and Fox little news is covered but a lot of opinion and analysis is. It is very one sided and is reflected to a greater and lesser extent in their programming. Fine, support yourselves however you wish but keep your hypocritical paws off of the tax dollars f those who don't agree with your political philosophy.

Good for them.

Came here to say this. They have also had episodes on Hanukkah and Yom Kipper.

Hopefully next Alabama will ban big gulp sugar drinks like New York City so you fat fricks will lose some weight.

For those twisting themselves into knots trying to explain why this isn’t a difficult conversation to have, you’re wasting your time. It’s not that the conversation is hard; the problem for them lies with having it.
The parents bitching are hoping that, if their child makes it far enough in life before being exposed to homosexuality, it will be innately ingrained in them that homosexuality is bizarre. Those parents are lying to you in saying that they don’t know how to discuss it with their children. They do. But to discuss it the way they want, they would have to say that the characters their kids love are committing an abomination and deserve to spend an eternity tortured by hellfire.
And the problem is that those parents know that their child will think two men loving one another is more reasonable than those men being tortured forever for loving one another.
Those parents are terrified that the image in their children’s heads of the loving Jesus will be replaced by that of a petty, vindictive god who tortures people the children love and believe are good.
But if you shelter them long enough, then it’s just those evil other people who god hates, not anyone we care about. So see? We worship a loving god because he loves all the same people we love, right?

as a society we shouldn’t be pushing gay, lbqtq, trans propaganda on prepubescent children just to make ourselves feel normal; there’s just something creepy and pathetic about doing so
