Pete Buttigieg Advises 9 Year Old Boy on How to Be Gay

Nine years old.

Hm, given that romantic feelings for either sex wouldn't have even started until he was seven or eight, would it be fair to speculate that at this moment of his very young life he's much more interested in Peer Group Validation than sex with anyone?

Presidential candidate Pete Buttigieg shared an emotional moment in front of thousands of supporters Saturday when a 9-year-old boy asked for his help coming out as gay.

"Would you help me tell the world I’m gay too? I want to be brave like you," the boy wrote on a card that was read by the moderator during Buttigieg's rally in Denver.

"Wow!" Buttigieg responded.

The crowd began chanting "Love is love!" as Zachary Ro made his way to the stage.

Zachary handed Buttigieg a bracelet he'd made and the candidate slipped it on his wrist.

"I don’t think you need a lot of advice from me on bravery. You seem pretty strong," Buttigieg told Zachary. "It took me a long time to figure out how to tell even my best friend that I was gay, let alone to go out there and tell the world."

Their stance is that it's literally never too early to start propagandizing children who have not even had a millimole of sexual-characteristics-defining hormones in their body about how popular and brave they'll be for being gay.

And they mean it. It's literally never too early.

Bring 'em young.
