Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!
Rules:
- Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.
Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.
Example:
- Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
- Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
- No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
- Vote based on comment quality, not agreement. This community aims to foster discussion; please reward people for putting effort into articulating their viewpoint, even if you disagree with it.
- No hate speech, slurs, celebrating death, advocating violence, or abusive language. This will result in a ban. Usernames containing racist, or inappropriate slurs will be banned without warning
We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.
All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.
That's all the rules!

Oh wow. Even when they try they can't get it right. Many people know they're gay by 9, not all gay men want to do oral sex, and all most 9 year olds know is they're supposed to want this thing called sex. It's literally the grade where they talk about "it" and some braggart says they did "it".
And the God loves you line is just classic. According to conservatives God loves gay people which is why it's important to save them from hell.
This entire story is just a massive line of red flags.
My family loves to tell the story about my cousin and I running around the house when we were like 6 and supposedly he stopped dead in his tracks, looked at my stepmom and said "that dress is so your color."
Doesn't have to do with dicks, but from that day they knew he was gay and he very much is now that we're in our late 30s. I love him to death, he's such a great guy!
He finally came out to me when we went to an art exhibit because I always liked Tim Burton stuff and he kept commenting on paintings "why are the men all clothed and the women all topless? Why does Jack not have a bulge but Sally is full figured!?" That kind of stuff. So over dinner I was like "ya know... I couldn't help notice some of your comments? You know I love you, is there anything you want to share with me?" Lol
