Times are different now. Back when I was in school, gay culture was seen as an underground and hidden kind of thing that was persecuted and spat on by 90% of the mainstream populous. I mean heck.. AIDS was blamed on them back then. Now, gays are out in the open. They're fighting the discrimination and they're out there. Kids are going to encounter gays and lesbians and often times, the biggotry that surrounds them. They're going to need the nescissary information in order to understand what's going on. They should NOT be shielded from this no more than they should be shielded from Black issues, or Muslem issues, etc..
It's much easier to teach tollerance at a young age rather than at an older age when they get more set in their ways.
