Because it's only a matter of time before that happens. Other forms of outright bigotry have been slowly weeded out. It's only a matter of time before gays are no longer considered the second class citizens they are, and portraying them in children's books and cartoons will be no big deal. Just like mixed race people and couples.

Because despite your panic induced need to protect your kids from people you don't' know, and are therefore worthy of shunning, they will grow up in a world that condones outright bigotry less and less. They may decide to hang on to that bigotry you taught them, but there will be fewer kids who will, so the odds aren't in that favor.

I'm sorry to break it to you. Maybe you should get a leg up on everyone else and join the 21st century.
