If you aren't offending people then you are doing something wrong. ;) LOL Just kidding, sort of heh.

I don't think anyone should be taught what it means to be any gender. People should learn for themselves through interacting with themselves and their environments and others. I don't see anything wrong with children going to Pride events, but going as a trendy thing to do seems like normalization - which really is fine as well. Its not really sending the right message, but its impossible to get everyone under one umbrella. I wholly agree that parents have a responsibility to explain questions the children have. Teaching about different genders and sexes is fine, but I'm not sure of the age of when its acceptable either.
