Isn't that just terribly sad? That if I said to someone like this that I think it's great that my parents talked to me about sexuality when I was young and showed me things like Sesame Street, all of which helped me be more tolerant and accepting of others, Ken Blackwell would tell me that that's a bad thing.

I can stan for three things at the same time, yes? Cause, look at these fierce women and muppets.
