A gay kid doesn't think about sex any more than a heterosexual kid does. What does a heterosexual 12 yr old girl think about? Her crush on Justin Beiber. Does that mean she is thinking about sex acts? Probably not. What does a homosexual 12 yr old boy think about? His crush on Justin Bieber. Does that mean he is thinking about sex acts? Probably not.

I wouldn't want my 12yr old girl having a crush on Justin Bieber either to be honest
When I was a kid I never had a crush on any girl at that age
I always wanted to play, go to the park, play dodge ball or go to the library to read
I don't know how they did it but my parents raised me to be very curious about science, the world, the universe.... everything, and be a kid and have fun.
Now parents are watching Glee or American Idol while their kids have crushes on Bieber
Life is just a distraction to them
I want my kids to grow up like I did!!!!
I feel that homosexuality is against the natural laws of the universe. Many gay people have pointed out to me that in the animal kingdom, homosexuality is quite normal. That is a weak argument, animals also eat their offspring and often engage in cannibalism. By their logic, am I to also accept fallicide and cannibalism in humans? I mean if animals do it, it must be fine for us.

Well, when you become King of the World, you can make everyone be just like you. Until then, there is lots of diversity in this world, and as long as they are not hurting anyone, everyone has a right to be here, and to be who they are.

And, if you didn't have a crush on any girl by the time you were 12.....well, I won't go there.

I get it - you were a late bloomer. No problem, it happens to a lot of kids. They catch up with everyone else eventually. The point is, you don't have to be having or think about having sex, when you are a kid -- but your gender/sexual identity usually starts to form around that age.

How about everyone turns gay over night. End of human race. End of story. Stop telling me something that will inevitably lead to the extinction of our own race would be "acceptable".

How do you know I was a late bloomer?
What if with all the TV, sexy ads, movies and shows and music that kids get bombarded with makes them premature bloomers?
What if because of me growing up with alot less of these distractions made me bloom at the age I was meant to?
Because I think that's EXACTLY what the case is

Please, how is that a cop-out? Is that not equal rights between you and I?
No it is not equal.
It is not Human equal - - as in who you love - - who you are emotionally and physically attracted to.
It is absolutely a cop out.

With puberty, comes those feelings about the gender you are going to be attracted to. It's not necessarily hard-core sex yet, but it's definitely different than before puberty. Boys those ages have been having crushes, and girls those ages have been having crushes since way before TV, movies, or "sexy ads".
Puberty is usually the time when gay kids start to have an inkling that they are gay. It's not about the sex act.
