My girlfriend teaches 2nd grade and they went on a field trip. One little boy said he wanted to sit next to his "partner." At first she thought oh little boys chillin. Then she thought about it. She said he didn't "patnas." Like men say that's my patna....he emphasized "Partner." So she went to where they were sitting and these 2nd Grade boys were holding hands.
She said she damn near pulled their arms out of socket. Now she writing up a statement for them to go to counseling or something....
Your girlfriend, and anyone else who thinks this was "gay", need to get their heads out of the toilet. What is wrong with you uptight people?
Do you same people think that little girls who do the same thing are gay? Fathers hold their sons hands, brothers hold their little brothers hands, the same way mothers do with their daughters. Oh, wait!!! Clear signs of incest going on!!!
Oh, look!!!! Two girls hugging!!!! Call the morality police!!!!
Maybe we should all live in our own mobile cubicle.

I can see it being alright but what gets to me is that the boy was calling the other boy his partner.
That's disgusting.
But then again that's what happens to those who grow up under a liberal society.
Oh, and this thread and the reaction of the OP's girlfriend highlights why homophobes SHOULD NOT be allowed anywhere near children. These people are OBSESSED with homosexuality and see homosexuality in everything and anything, no matter how innocent, no matter how harmless, not realizing that, um............there is nothing wrong in being gay!
We're talking about two 7 year olds. Why poison their minds so young when, first of all, you don't know why they were holding hands, but secondly, even if they do see themselves as "boyfriends" or whatever, what's the problem? It's not as if they're going to go to the alter and marry at 7. It's innocent. They're children, friends who enjoy one another's company.
What's sad is how its younger folk, 18 and under, who have less hangups and more maturity surrounding situations like this, than actual grown adults.
That's not what I'm saying. By "a liberal society" I mean a society which seems to accept and almost encourage ridiculous actions and behavior.
Nothing that the OP said occurred was ridiculous.
