Part of the concern our society has with children even knowing what homosexuality is (let alone identifying as such) comes from a fairly understandable worry about children’s exposure to sex in general. However, is the fact that I have a civil partnership with someone of the same sex so much more graphic than Sleeping Beauty marrying Prince Charming? It doesn’t follow that explaining to children what being gay is means we need to explain what it might involve any more than they need to know what mum and dad get up to behind closed doors.
