So there was was a post earlier concerning Pride counter protests. Possibly these are growing in number and I thought it might be worth a look to determine why.

Pride parade protests have grown in number too so there's that. They are also popping up outside the typical urban areas. Finally, they have made a point to include children. So probably all that should be considered.

We have moved far past the old "we don't want your kids" promises and "whatever you do in your own bedroom is your business" approach.

A glimpse

When our children grew tired of marching, we plopped onto a nearby curb. Just as we got settled, our elementary-schooler pointed in the direction of oncoming floats, raising an eyebrow at a bare-chested man in dark sunglasses whose black suspenders clipped into a leather thong. The man paused to be spanked playfully by a partner with a flog. “What are they doing?” my curious kid asked as our toddler cheered them on. The pair was the first of a few dozen kinksters who danced down the street, laughing together as they twirled their whips and batons, some leading companions by leashes. At the time, my children were too young to understand the nuance of the situation, but I told them the truth: That these folks were members of our community celebrating who they are and what they like to do.

"As much as I want them to spend time in queer spaces so they can be with families like their own, I also want them to know that they shouldn’t limit their understanding of what relationships or expression look like to whatever’s most familiar. I want them to see that they can make their own ways in the world — and know that they’ll be supported and celebrated by their community. If we want our children to learn and grow from their experiences at Pride, we should hope that they’ll encounter kink when they attend. How else can they learn about the scope and vitality of queer life?"

It takes sick degenerate contemptible people to include young children in their 'queer' fantasy world. Naturally, some of those people would be found at the Washington Post.

Leave the children alone!
