How long until a new Amish type sect grows in America comprised of evangelicals who can't tolerate equality for all?

A conservative group faced backlash on Twitter after it claimed the same-sex kiss televised live from the Macy’s Thanksgiving Day Parade in New York had broken the innocence of “millions of small children.”
ForAmerica ― whose mission is to “reinvigorate the public with the principles of American exceptionalism: freedom, prosperity and virtue” — accused Macy’s and NBC of blindsiding parents Thursday by airing the kiss between actresses Caitlin Kinnunen and Isabelle McCalla during a rendition of musical “The Prom.”

The group also accused the network and department store of trying to “push their agenda on little kids.”

It's only rammed down your throat if you open your mouth.

Two people expressing affection for one another. How disgusting.

The implied premise of the argument that children would "lose their innocence" by seeing a same sex kiss - but not an opposite sex kiss - is that something is inherently dirty and perverted about a same sex kiss.

The right uses just the thinnest and flimsiest veneers to cover their bigotry yet we have people around here who swear up and down that there is no bigotry on the right and that liberals are the real bigots.

I'm guessing its a Russian backed conservative group

Hate, wrapped up in an American flag and called "exceptionalism." Sad.

My only requirements for sex couple kissing is they both be good looking young women.

Meh. If people want to kiss let them. I don't have to find them attractive because I'm not doing the kissing, it's just a nice thing for them to do.

I'm sorry I do not want to see two guys kissing that is just gross.

Why? Is it because you're incapable of not putting yourself in their place?

Two guys kissing doesn't bother me at all. In fact, numerous studies show the only people bothered by homosexual shows of affection are, in fact, turned on by it, and their self loathing makes them react negatively to that.

How closely do you watch other people kissing?
They aren't doing it for your benefit, they are doing it because they like each other.

I agree for the most part. I'm not massive on overly affectionate displays in public regardless of the genders of all participants. A hug and a kiss in public is fine but people do go a bit overboard sometimes!
I'm guessing that I'm just a bit old fashioned on that though.

Normally I don't, but I'll gladly watch two sweet young things kissing and having PDAs.

See, that sounds a bit creepy! Just let people get on with their lives.

It quite normal for men wanting to stop and watch two young women kissing and having PDAs, if they didn't want said men looking at them then why are they doing it in public?

Eh? You think that if two people are kissing in public they are only doing it to get people to look at them?

Am I missing a huge /S here?

Well no I'm not saying that is the only reason.

 

[WelshBloke]

Well I've never kissed anyone in public and thought "I hope lots of people are watching this".
I can't imagine that you would be in the front of their minds unless there was some very specific scenario going on!
