Ooooo totally because I (straight) was totally influenced by my gay uncle and other gay stuff I’ve seen online 🙄
While we’re at it we should get rid of cartoons because kids shouldn’t see stuff like someone slowly falling with an umbrella and trying it in real life since they’re influenced.
Just because someone is exposed to something at a young age doesn’t mean they’ll end up making decisions.
We're not exactly exposing someone to something. We're exposing everyone to everything.
I hardly find the link with trans... same with the argument to "then ban straight content too". Gay guy doesn't pretend to be an anime girl .
trans is about mental disorder, dissociation between mind, body and frustration.
Yall also said the same thing about gay people. It was considered a mental disorder. All of these talking points are recycled, but then just slightly altered to fit trans people instead.
FUCK YOU, I never said that. Can't you just read what I write.
The amount of irony in this small comment is amazing.
