      Have you considered repainting your walls recently? I’d recommend using your grey matter.

      It’s not at all what you claim it to be. It has nothing to do with sexual activity. By the way it’s framed, it sounds tantamount to “queer people exist. here are the troubles they’ve faced.”

      It also sounds like there was, at best, a supportive take. Telling kids that it’s ok to love who they want to love is not the worst thing in the world. It isn’t indoctrination, it’s education.

      I haven’t watched the video mentioned in the article, but it sounds like the kind of education one might receive about a black jazz musician who grew up poor in the South and the difficulties they might have faced. What made them who they are and where they might have drawn inspiration from. It’s cultural and like it or not, there is a large and growing queer culture.
