Polydoros, 27, says he feels safer in Canada. But nationwide protests in September over LGBTQ-inclusive school policies disturbed him.
Many demonstrations were held under the same name, “1 Million March 4 Kids.” Organizers say children should not be taught about LGBTQ identities in school, which they say amounts to the “indoctrination and sexualization” of children.
Does anyone know when being religious stopped being gay?
I’ve talked to people my age all over Ontario and we just assumed it was the kids not being intolerant anymore but it seems weird for them to be enemies
Most popular religions seem to be anti-gay, so I don’t really know what you are trying to ask.
20 years ago gay was an insult
If people at school found out you went to church or believed in god then you’d get beaten up/be an outcast
Bro what are you talking about. Christians have been the majority forever. Not believing in God makes you the outlier, not the other way around.
Did you not grow up in Ontario?
I think it was closer to 25 year, maybe even 30 years in some parts. I remember people beginning to realize how bigoted it was to use gay as an insult prior to gay marriage being legalized in 2005.
20 years would have been before 2005 but Harper got elected the first time on the promise of making it illegal again so it didn’t go away after that
