The G.O.P's war against the LGBTQ community.
This ******* introducing a bill that would force adoption agencies to place lgbtq kids in homes that admit they intend to raise the children according to their biological sex. This ****ing country sometimes...
Originally posted by truejediIf you think raising a child by their genetic birth gender is abuse then sure. If it's a case of deliberately denying the child's expression, then definitely.
I believe it forces adoption agencies to allow adoptions to parents who have stated they intend to abuse the children, right?
The real problem is, I'm willing to bet there's going to be a lot of legal jargon to hide the fact or possibility of the second statement and base their argument on more adoptions = less tax payer money. Furthermore, I don't think it's abusive to raise a child based on how they were born.
LGBTQ kids raised in fundamental Christian backgrounds are absolutely abused. Told everything they are feeling is a sin, and punished for being who they are. The pray the gay away camps come to mind: but it's truly that, every single day of their existence whether they are at the camp or at home. Im imagining a scenario where one of these couples are adopting and the agency is forced to place a gay kid with them, knowing how they will be treated.
Originally posted by truejediI'm sure it's the adopted parents who decide. Not sure if fundamentalist Christians would want a gay child anyway. As for the child, children can't consent. 😂

Seriously though, fundamentalist Christians raising an LGBTQZ+ child by feeding them self hating dogma is emotional abuse.
On another note, I thought Republicans believed in separation of Church and state?
