    Right, but at that point “default” becomes a useless term. Elsewhere in the thread OP said they’d raise their kids “heterosexually” or smth, and if they’re consistent with wanting to raise their kids the “default” way, they’d also want to raise their kids right-handedly, as girls (because women make up slightly more than 50% of the population), in Mandarin, etc etc. Nobody’s entirely default.

    Sure, you could say that right-handed is the default. And? It doesn’t impact any other arguments.

    Going even further into extremes, over 99% of matter in the universe is helium or hydrogen. By that definition of default, helium and hydrogen are the default state of matter, and carbon-based lifeforms aren’t “supposed to” exist.

      Excellent arguments. I didn’t mean to imply I think children should be raised without mentioning homosexuality.

        No worries, I didn’t feel you did!
