I personally do not think the LGTBTQxyz community should be "celebrated." Many choose that life style and that is perfectly ok. But to separate one group to celebrated I can't agree with. It also depends on how you see the matter. I do not believe children are born gay. I believe they go through certain life experiences that swing them to that lifestyle. I also do not buy that young children show their sexual choice while young.

My very own Son loved to play with barbies and a girl vacuum up until the age of 5. I would of accepted him if he were later to be gay. He is now grown and not gay. He has never expressed interest in Men and now has his first child on the way. I believe some parents see "signs" their kids maybe gay and turn them down that route. Some awful parents even reflect their own feelings on their children.

The Alphabet Community: Tolerated? Absolutely! Respected? As long as it goes both ways then yes! Celebrated? Absolutely not. I am not putting one group on any kind of pedestal.
