but people who come from traditional cultures are more likely to know that a strong family life is important, not just for children but for the well being of society.
and the problem of "gay marriage" and "transgender rights" is not that this is about accepting such people: heck, we don't have a problem with them here in the Philippines: they are part of the extended family and accepted because of the strong family ties in the Philippine family.
But even here, in Manila, we are seeing the "gay lifestyle" of promiscuity, drug abuse, and sex tourism that is foreign to our culture. This is fueling the HIV epidemic, and the increase in HIV is being used by international agencies to push promiscuity as sex ed in our schools (an agenda that is also pushed in the movies and TV programs).
But in the USA it is worse: What is going on in the USA is not about acceptance, but about pushing a aggressive agenda of free love and destruction of the family that has roots in Marxism.
Nor is this about "multiculturalism", since the emphasis on strong family ties is found in most non PC cultures. This is by a Latina mother, but it could have been written by an Arab, Filipino, or Chinese.

Mayor Pete, it cuts both ways. As a Latina mama in touch with a number of other Latinas with traditional family values, I can tell you we are faced every day with people who are "polite to us in person" but who advance and execute policies that assault our values, harm our families, and hurt our children.
Enough Is Enough
I'm talking about policies that undermine our parental rights and duties by seeking to indoctrinate our children in progressive sexual ideology without our consent and sometimes in spite of our explicit protest. Consider just a few examples:
• The public schools in my area where reading assignments from the Language Arts curriculum ask: "What is heteronormativity and how is it harmful?" (Mind you: this is a question from the school district's recommended language arts curriculum for eighth graders, not from a single health teacher or counselor. It is not unusual for the LGBT theme to find its way into history classes, foreign language studies, and even STEM courses. The explicit goal is to normalize LGBT lifestyles throughout curricula).
• Pediatricians who ask to see our teenagers alone and then push to prescribe them contraceptives or ask them about sexual behaviors that we find offensive. Our teens themselves bring these pediatricians' inappropriate behavior to our attention. (One OBGYN slipped a prescription for oral contraceptives stealthily to a 14-year-old daughter of a Mexican friend of mine, after she had explicitly stated to his face that she did not wish to see her daughter on oral contraceptives.)
• Sex education classes in which our kids are taught unproven Freudian-Kinseyan doctrines that "sexual repression" will cause neuroses ("express yourself, don't suppress yourself"), and which preach about topics like abortion, masturbation, condom use, sex toys, "outercourse," oral stimulation, and rectal intercourse, with all the humor and scientific grounding of a Saturday Night Live sketch, while refusing to seriously address the short and long-term medical and psychological health risks of those actions.
• Public library programming where unicorns, rainbows, gingerbread persons, drag-queen story hours, and other symbols of progressive sexual ideology make an appearance, so that we must regularly steer our toddlers clear of the propaganda. With our middle-school children, it's much harder to opt out. Trendy middle-school books (published after 2014) that appear to have fairly innocuous plots frequently feature an LGBT teen or gay couple, ever-so-gently normalizing the ideas that are so conflicting to our consciences. (Avoiding these storylines isn't easy, since book-review websites regularly delete or block parents' reviews that warn of LGBT elements, so we cannot even alert other parents of the real content within these books.)
• And last but not least, the latest round of violence against children: efforts to entice children to question the reality of their sex through school gender-transitioning ceremonies, pronoun-sensitivity training, and other transgender propaganda. Parents have historically enjoyed the right to direct the education and upbringing of their children, under the correct presumption that parents--rather than school counselors, psychiatrists, teachers, government bureaucrats, or any other persons--are best able to act in their children's best interests. Now, activists are pushing courts to allow minors to receive puberty-blocking drugs and cross-sex hormones against their parents' objections.
• Mr. Mayor, it is hypocritical for you to cry foul about policies that "harm you and your family" while your side pushes for government intrusions into the parent-child relationship at the most fundamental levels.
