Gay Penguins

Parents have the everyday stress of protecting their children from the more inappropriate things in life. Sometimes they are not able to do just because of so many types of media children have access to. Among these are computers, phones, and...books.

Some books are banned for different reasons. To ban a book means to not have it schools and libraries. Some banned books i can understand why they have been banned but  some are PLAIN STUPID.

According to these guys the book 'And Tango Makes Three' is on the ban list. This book is about two male penguins who are given the privilege of hatching an egg together. 

This is a true story and if you follow the news they had even separated them and tried to get them to mate with a female penguin. After this didn't work they just accepted the facts and let the gay penguins be together.

The book follows six years of their life and on this website someone says "homosexual story line that has been sugarcoated with cute penguins" . This is stupid. Nobody is sugar-coating anything. This is just something that a lot of people don't hear of, so someone went and wrote a children's book about. And there's nothing wrong with homosexuality. Children are eventually gonna experience it so why not show it to them in the form of penguins.

This book has been on and off the ban list for a while. I personally believe it shouldn't be on the ban list. If it's what these penguins want it's what they want.
