This is also why representation in media is so important. Kids need to see people like them represented as "normal".

The cumulative effect that the media has had on how Americans view homosexuality has changed so dramatically, even in my lifetime, and so much of that has to do with the media normalizing it.

It's also why conservatives are so terrified of it.
