Seems like decades ago when the topic of "Should homosexuals be allowed to be school teachers?" was somewhat in vogue. Didn't last long. The media made it seem oh-so-bigoted-and-stupid to block homosexuals from being teachers. I mean, it's not like they were pedophiles! They're just homosexuals! And why shouldn't they teach??

Of course, we now have a situation where kids in kindergarten are taught about anal sex, the homosexual agenda is tops on the curriculum, kids are increasingly sexualized, and ("I was just joking") children's TV hosts are homosexual too.

Personally, I don't think homosexuals should be allowed to serve as authority figures for kids. Not in schools, not in scouting, not in the church, not at summer camp, not at ...

Childless adults? I would believe it.

We watch CBC on channel 9 and TVO on 32 from Windsor. From what I see on the websites for these kids shows and the BBC’s children’s programing, they are run the same way. A couple of hours of “hosts” doing crafts, birthday greetings and introducing cartoons. The hosts are young adults. I suspect that many of them will have children one day.

And how would the show be different if they were? Think about it -- Bert and Ernie, before Bert join Al Queda. Cookie Monster's eating disorder? Elmo tickling fetish. Watch the show critically and you think the muppets have more than a hand up their back sides!

Untwist your knickers, Ms. Roberts.

Both Disney and Nickelodeon are dominated by gays. Ever notice how many plot revolve around “tolerance”, “accepting differences”, and “not fitting in”.

I have no problem if a skilled and talented teacher who happened to be homosexual taught my children provided he or she was not radicalized or weaved their political agenda into the classroom.

Do you really think a homosexual who defines themselves by a perverted act is not going to bring it into the classroom?

One nice thing about liberals.. is they rarely have children. Either prefering homosexual relationshiops or childless relationships with the opposite sex.

In another generation or two its just going to be us and the mohammedans(and however many dhimmis the mohammedans can force convert and force to have children).

. . . she now lives in North London with her boyfriend . . .

I don't think shack-ups are any better role models for youth than gays/lesbians are.

You're forgetting about all the illegal aliens and welfare queens who are pumping them out endlessly.

If allowed, yes.

Throughout most of the 20th century (at least till the 80's), my guess would be at least 5 per cent of teachers were gay.

However, at that time, the "closet" wasn't open and it certainly wasn't cool.

And she added: "Still, at least we're better than Palestinian children's TV, which gets kids to sing songs about AK-47 rifles."
When the bar is at ground level (or lower), it's not difficult to get over it.

and you think they didn’t “recruit” because they were in the closet?

I used to watch Pee Wee’s Playhouse as a young adult and knew it wasn’t really for kids.
