Riiight....!
So people who form relationships and, indeed have sex, *without* the desire or intent of having children are not "mainstream", yes? So our children should not be "faced" with that either...?

Men can kiss and fall in love, but to be honest is there a future in it?

What business is it of yours or anyone else's if there is a "future" in it??

Why on earth should kids be faced with non mainstream books advocating men kissing? this is not remotely acceptable in any culture I am aware of - its basically an extremely sub culture vyeing for space.

No, it's a group of people who have as much right as anyone else to kiss and form relationships with the person whom they are attracted to, and who simply want the "mainstream" to understand and *respect* that right.
If you teach children from an early age that this is not "mainstream" or it is "wrong" or "unacceptable" then they will grow up simply repeating the bigotry and prejudice of the previous generations.
And if any of *them* feel that way inclined, they will not feel guilty or ashamed for natural feelings that they have little control over.
