    We aren’t the ones in favour of unrestricted guns

    Which was banned by Bush - and only performed in very unusual and limited circumstances

    So, you are against selling candy cigarettes? How about realistic appearing guns?

    Isn't it sad that the LGBT movement has co-opted the rainbow to the point where we cannot distinguish if a rainbow element on anything is a token to the LGBT movement or not? They could have created their own thing, but they decided to co-opt something beautiful and uglify it as a symbol of their sexual perversion.

    You are using a general dictionary to define medical terms? Oh! Well! I guess the medical dictionaries were off line for some reason

    First off, a general usage dictionary is not incorrect. But you may want to read further down in the conversation where I cite a medical dictionary. Please don't half-ass and read. Do the work.

    I ask what actual impact will a rainbow Batman have that a rainbow unicorn would not? If candy cigarettes did not encourage smoking then a rainbow coloured toy should not make a difference

    https://truetreatscandy.com/the-sto...ed banned,cigarettes led to cigarette smoking.

    Yes, this "everything is digital" era we are living in, is interesting that way.

    It depends on intent. It depends on whether the rainbow on the product is a token to the LGBT movement or just a neutrally considered design choice. There is nothing inherently wrong with a rainbow. As I said, rainbows are beautiful; but we have a mainstream movement in the form of LGBT that has co-opted it and uglified it as a symbol of their sexual perversion, and thus you cannot blame those who are against that movement of being suspicious of anything with a rainbow design. All of this could have been avoided if the LBGT movement would have came up with their own unique design.

    It's not pale gray, old lady; it's a different font family to distinguish the element of my post that I was referencing.

    So then you either think that it's perfectly healthy for a little boy to go around pretending that he is a little girl, aided by tucking his junk with this “tuck friendly” swim suit, or you do not think that it's healthy and you simply do not care.

    I don't see how supposedly intelligent corporate owners can sign their name to 1/2 % of the population acting like they can crush them if they don't fall into line.
    Target, IMO is an upper class uber-white alternative to Wallmart, so the guilt must run deep, because that market is fickle and deeply into "competitive child rearing", and can turn on a dime.

    Are you referring to the 12% who have knotted knickers every time LGBTQ is mentioned or are you referring to something else

    The whole thing about these swimsuits is that they were never ever marketed to children :roll:

    I believe the tuck friendly swim suits were for adults only. I couldn’t give two craps if an adult male wants to tuck his junk while pretending to be a female.

    Does a kid know the difference?

    and LGBTQI are a part of the population - whether YOU like it or not. They are people not perverts. Plus we have 1.7% of the population born “intersex/DSD”. Those kids are often bullied and misunderstood- if this spreads happiness in a world where happiness is in short supply then we should not be upset

    It does though ask the question of why bother when all you have to do is swim in icy cold water :p

    I agree.

    BLM

    Trans rights

    Workers rights

    The 1%

    Climate


    It's almost as if people have to fabricate stuff to be outraged about to create a victim class to win elections.

    Why do sexual orientation and how one identifies need to be celebrated?

    A man prefers sexual relations with another man. Do they need a trophy? A parade?

    Seems silly to me.

    They are people who are perverts. Intersex is not a sexual orientation; it's a birth defect, and shame on the LGBT movement for lumping them in with their movement.

    As for a kid knowing the difference, well, that depends on the parents. Sickly, there are parents who are very liberal / left, and, wouldn't you know it, there child is trans. There are people like actress Marcia Gray Harden who claim, "All my children are queer." You have parents who groom their own children into the LGBT lifestyle. You have kids like 10-year-old Desmond Napoles who is a so-called "drag star of fashion . . . [who] loves RuPaul." This is not "live and let live," which is a disgusting philosophy in and of itself; it's worse. And for kids like Desmond Napoles, yes, they would probably know the difference. And for the kids who don't know the difference, when they get older, and they see the connection between liking a rainbow and identifying as LGBT, well, maybe they'll be more likely to question if they are LGBT, too.
