Gay doctor flees Louisiana due to anti-LGBTQ+ laws: ‘I don’t have a choice’
A gay doctor who is one of Louisiana's only specialist paediatric cardiologists has fled the state due to recent anti-LGBTQ+ legislation.
A gay doctor who is one of Louisiana’s only specialist paediatric cardiologists has left the state after the introduction of a Don’t Say Gay copycat bill and a ban on gender-affirming care for trans youth.
Jake Kleinmahon, who was one of just three doctors specialising in heart transplants for children in Louisiana, chose to leave the state with his family, as they no longer felt safe.
Kleinmahon met and fell in love with his husband Tom in New Orleans, and the couple expected remain in Louisiana, even after retirement. However, he told CNN that the state’s anti-LGBTQ+ legislation made him and his family feel unwelcome and that he ultimately “didn’t have a choice”.
You're viewing part of a thread.
I never claimed all gay men are pedophiles, rather that they're more likely to be, which is supported by statistics.
Why do you keep dodging the question? You claim pedophilia is a sexuality, and that one isn't necessarily born a pedophile and can instead become one. So does this apply to other sexualities too? If not, why?
Me:
Is there something about being gay that means you can’t care for children?
You:
More like you care a bit too much for children.
Liar.
Man you're just desperate to not have to defend your beliefs aren't you?
Sorry, I don't indulge liars either. You made the ludicrous and disgusting suggestion that all gay men are pedophiles and now you won't even own it. Cowardly.
I never claimed all gay men are pedophiles and anyone can see it. Though in this case it is more than likely. You're desperately trying to twist this into an easy to debunk strawman, and getting annoyed not succeeding.
Yes, anyone can see it. I quoted you. You absolutely did. Now you're trying to gaslight. I am not twisting anything. You didn't say some gay men. You didn't clarify and suggest it was a percentage of gay men. Your comment implied it was all gay men, you know it, and you're being a coward.
Since you want to split hairs and argue about some hidden implications, instead of actual substance, the comment obviously implied that a man from a "risk group" for pedophilia (for lack of a better term), working exclusively with children, getting so upset about anti-lgbt laws likely is a pedophile.
Now that i've microanalysed my own comment for you, would you care to tell me whether sexuality is an inborn trait one can't change?
It implied no such thing. Nonsense. Sorry, you don't get to rewrite your lie and I'm still not changing the subject.
