  • I think what you’re saying is completely correct and I agree completely, kids know they’re straight when they’re young, so of course it stands to reason that they know they are gay or any other thing too.

    I do have young relatives who changed their mind also though, and I worry too much of you “you just know, it’s so obvious” can have a negative impact too, if a growing child decides to change their mind on what their sexuality is, they should not be worried that it might appear disingenuous or abnormal.

    It can be obviously one thing at one point and later it can be obviously a new thing, sometimes it can be not obvious and that’s all fine and part of the human experience. Generally I’m saying: we should all be allowed to decide whatever we like about ourselves and our identity, and change those decisions whenever we like too.

    What I’m trying to clarify is: let’s not let people changing their mind about their identity be used against the argument of you know whether or not you’re gay when you’re young.

    Though I think it’s fair to say that the above post does not say “you know” but rather “I knew”…

    Anyway I’m rambling now, out of fear of being taken out of context, so I’ll stop :)

    What are we describing when saying a square banana?

    In good faith I understand this as: the square of it’s length.

    But I prefer to interpret it as, a banana squashed until it is 1atom thin and shaped in a square (which to my imagination, is an enormous square)
