    He’s not gay. He’s not straight. He’s not anything. He’s 9. He hasn’t started to hit puberty yet so wtf is this coming from? He should be riding his bike and catching frogs, not thinking about shit like this.

    The fact that he is means someone put it in his head recently. Little kids are impressionable and inquisitive. A year ago he could have convinced himself he was a giraffe.

    He’ll be fine one way or another whatever he grows up to be. I just don’t understand why anyone would think that this is the kind of subject matter we want to actively engage with 9 year olds.

    Mom I think I’m gay

    Buddy you are 9. You won’t know what you really are for years to come. Here’s an ice cream cone. Go outside and get dirty.

    The problem here, and I've witnessed it, is many of those moms placate that child and, in ways they aren't even aware, promote the disorder. Again, this is only my opinion.

    Enabling is promoting. Kids look upward for direction.

    If it's okay with mom or dad, it's right.

    I remember she knocked on my door when she ran for State Rep. in 2015. The only Politician I have ever had do that.

    Clark county had not been fully overrun by Oregon democrat voters yet.

    I was pleasantly surprised at Vancouver's improvements in its downtown areas and along the waterfront last time I was there. Portland had gotten so shitty by 2020 we didn't even bother looking for a place to eat on that side of the river.

    Is their side still dominated by the ruins of the burned out Red Lion?
