THIS CHILDREN’S BOOK ABOUT GAY PENGUS IS FIGHTG A BAN FLORIDA
At the epicenter of an anti-LGBTQ+ moral panic, you’ll often fd gay pengus. * children's book about gay penguins *
Is a predisposn towards homosexualy ed by geic make-up? Has the homosexual agenda fally filtrated our beloved zoos?
Yeah, yeah, I know some people have their reasons (beyond my unrstandg) to be opposed to homosexualy and that’s what the ck is all about. The PETA people who thk pengus shouldn’t be kept ptivy to beg wh, the “only straight married upl should be allowed to adopt, ” the homophob generilly. And if you thk you uld w parenthood better than Neil Patrick Harris and David Burtka (Spoiler Alert: a GAY uple), I triple-dog dare you to prove ....
But of urse, the ntext of a society that still suffers om a certa amount of entrenched homophobia, any acknowledgement of alternative fay stctur is implicly polil. And wh regard to And Tango Mak Three, my opn (and y, this is only my personal opn, but I do stand by ), if you really thk that readg a betifully illtrated and tenrly reunted picture book story about two male pengus jotly takg re of an egg and then raisg the rultant chick together is eher promotg homosexualy or uld even (oh horror) turn children to homosexuals then om where I am standg you probably have your own ep and dark issu wh sexual inty. And ed, even if the two male pengus might have been homosexual, even that possibily is my opn rather signifint as homosexualy is a blogil and zoologil fact which do at tim tends to happen (no matter what the anti same sex relatnship crowd might vehemently claim to the ntrary).

One of the big arguments people agast gay marriage or relatnships throw around is that you don't see animals homosexual relatnships so mt not be natural.
)Now, for the "gay pengu" aspect: I wonred if this was the thor's tent, or simply the perceptns of certa rears projected to the story.
In my opn, IS mean to be a book about gay parents and adopted children--more than that, of urse, is a book about FAMILY and LOVE. Sendly, some of the word choic dite "gay pengu" vs "male pengus who hang out together. Personally, I am lighted that there is a well-wrten, sweet and adorable animal story out there that uld fill a gap (albe, I'm hopg, a narrowg one) for children wh gay parents--or, ankly, ANY children to able to be exposed to jt one of the wi array of ways that fai are created.

However, is a shame that, the few s as mentned above, the thor had to take a b too far to "gay pengu" terrory and th alienate a huge rearship om this very sweet and TRUE animal story.
Until a zookeeper gave them a real fally they were 'jt like all the other pengu fai' as lovg and nurturg parents to their Tango Mak Three is a betiful story and a lovely way to troduce children to homosexualy a normalized fashn. Another fay like any other, yet the first photo sparked a luge of racist and homophobic ments. I thk the most unnventnal fay I've e across was a documentary about a uple who were gay female-to-male transgenred.
