While rationale people know that there is no harm to children involved in homosexuality, the unfounded association of homosexuals and pedophiles along with fear of homosexuality can often be found in the rhetoric for legislation and policy decisions (like not allowing teachers who are homosexual).
- eru 17y ago> (like not allowing teachers who are homosexual) Do you really have those kinds of laws? I heard that homosexuals weren't allowed in the military in the US, and that seemed bad enough. How backwards can it get?
- thwarted 17y agoIt may not be a matter a law but of policy (legal or not), as I said. Some interesting links: http://www.google.com/search?q=teacher+fired+for+being+gay http://www.google.com/search?q=teacher+fired+for+being+gay http://www.abanet.org/irr/hr/yared.html http://www.abanet.org/irr/hr/yared.html Kind of old: http://www.aclu.org/lgbt-rights_hiv-aids/gay-teacher-wrongfully-fired-aclu-charges http://www.aclu.org/lgbt-rights_hiv-aids/gay-teacher-wrongfu... So, to answer your question: it can get pretty backwards.
