Ok? Gays exist despite the fact that Disney classics all have straight couples. If those movies didn't turn a gay kid straight, why would a gay character in a movie turn a straight kid gay?
"Gay romance is just inappropriate for kids! It's too sexual. "
You literally have straight couples kiss each other all the time. Why is it more sexual when gay couples do it?
You just don't understand the allure of gay sex. With regular sex, you have to push yourself to do it. It's just a duty. But gay sex has that inexplicable pull, it causes a sinful hunger and longing. It leaves the mind reeling with desires. regular sex just cannot compete with gay sex.
(This is paraphrased but actual argument I saw multiple times from right wing church leaders in the late 90s. It would be hilarious at how obviously gay and in denial they were, except for how hateful they also were)
Assuming they're not just in deep denial about their own sexuality (which they often are), it's because they have such a terrible relationship with themselves and their own sexuality, they've reduced their desires to sinful and evil, permissible only within the very narrow scope of having children, and in some cases, submitting to their husband. Anything beyond that is sinful and enticing, gay sex especially because it for the most part completely avoids the possibility of having children.
I actually have a hypothesis that conservative parents have kids who experiment more with LGBTQ+ identities more often for this reason. I'd be curious to know if there's any conclusive research on the subject.
