Why, thanks for disseminating the queerphobic talking point that seeing queer people makes children require therapy, Mr. Wholesome-Pixar-Movie-Guy. (Yes, I know the statement can be read differently, but it resembles the right-wing’s narrative to a T, so there is no reason to assume he meant anything different.)
No you’re actually spot on. Douche bag was even talking to a conservative paper.
Docter told the Wall Street Journal bluntly of the reasoning behind the creative overhaul, in which the Walt Disney Studios subsidiary found that some parents didn’t want media to broach topics they weren’t ready to discuss with their children
It’s really not hard to discuss someone being gay with your kids… unless you’re a bigot.
I’m not expressing a novel point of view here, but a large set of parents (many of whom falsely believe they “have no problem with gay people”) are terrified that their kid might be gay. They falsely believe that hiding the topic of homosexuality will ensure that their kid is “normal.”
Yeah that’s the wild thing about this whole argument, it’s always because the parents are uncomfortable with the discussion. Children barely give a shit, you tell them the facts and they’re like “oh okay” and carry on with their life.
Children often just fully do not understand joke intent because they take things at face value and do not yet understand context or subtext so they take information in a very black and white way.
They would accept the fact that gay people exist if you just tell them, they don’t understand the world context revolving around it or why it might be controversial, because all of that shit is taught.

If they can just keep that information hidden from their child until they’re 18 then they can’t become gay!
That’s how it works right?
