If you disagree with tradition, normalcy and values fine...but dont call others who dont endorse your radical pro-gay agenda. And calling people bigots?I would venture to say your grandmother and grandfather were not backers of this new concept. Were they bigots?????

1. Frozencat, there was no need to start this dialogue. "How heteronormative" was totally unnecessary. Also, "a colored" is most definitely not a politically correct term, which is surprising, coming from you. Had you used quotes, it would have implied that it was a term that your bigoted family members used, and that you were just repeating their words exactly. If that's the case, I'd suggest editing your post for clarity. Also, there's no need to bring up the LGBT issue. Travis was talking about shy kids, for Pete's sake. 2. Travis, being pro-gay isn't that radical (Uruguay just legalized gay marriage, by the way, so it's catching on.) Also, you throw around the term values a lot. Well, there are values other than yours, so try using different wording, because you're implying that people who don't share your belief system have no values. 3. Back on track: It does play a huge part in their adult lives, and it's sad. I've recently heard (from 2 credible sources) that an entire class of now-legal medications will be taken off of the market in the near future because of a slew of date rapes in Hongdae, where they have been used (by Koreans on Koreans) as makeshift "roofies." Socializing teens and letting them learn how to interact (when they're still young enough sex isn't really happening) would probably reduce this at least partially. I'm not saying that there would be no sex crimes, of course. Yes, it is not a huge proportion of Korean men who do this, but it's enough that there is legislation in the works to remove several medications from the legal market.
There's a point when you say things like it's human nature for boys to like girls. I mean, if you missed that part, it might seem like it came out of left field. Lack of knowledge of the last 89 years notwithstanding.
