Will tomorrow's children have to come out? I'm thinking ahead to a place
   
where people of all flavors are accepted. Don't laugh - just look at how young people across the political spectrum view the subject. There will be holdouts for a while, but at least here in the USA the tide seems to be turning.

So what happens in that new place? Presumably most people will still be straight, and most parents will expect their kids to be straight. Not demand that they be straight, just assume that that is the default. How will tomorrow's GLBT children grow up? How will they know who they are? Will models like Prince and Prince make things easier? Will GLBT kids always have to struggle to define themselves?

They will grow up to be ankle grabbers. Whats your point?

1. Ok I'm going to give you my view from the point of being 23
 All the problems currently in the world are caused by "old people" and by that I mean people who where born between 1930 and around 1959. All generations have some "bad apples", who are bigots but the "old people" have the good majority and have been in charge for far to long.

Better that than the "losers" in charge.

I think that no matter how far in to the future you go, whenever you have one kid acting contrary to his or her gender you will find another kid willing to knock the crap out of 'em because of it.

When one percent of the population has a trait that ninety-nine percent are genetically programmed to find repulsive, that one percent is going to have difficulty.

Laws may prevent them from being physically harmed, but it's an impossibility that they will ever be accepted as normal.

Humans are not immune from instinct, the strongest of which is survival of the species, and sexual perversion is seen instinctively as a threat.

That's why Barak Obama hates old people and wants to use National Socialism to kill them off.

A perfectly good reason to ignore anyone who is 23.  They're mostly dumbasses.

Well, if they're hot chicks . . . maybe not "ignoring" them.

Chase her.
Chase her even when she's yours.
That's the only way you'll be assured to never lose her.

I'd just like to point out something here. The gheys are ashamed of their perversions and they only "come out" when they finally get over that shame by fooling themselves into eliminating the line between right and wrong in their own minds. It's not society that causes the shame or sets the line, it comes from  within.
