Why should anyone be forced to accept that?
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Accept what?
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Homosexuality. Many people, for many reasons, do not accept it - including these sports people. Why should they be denied the right to do their job on the basis of their private beliefs?
----------------------------------------------------------------------
That's as ridiculous as not accepting black people, people with ginger hair, accepting women etc. I'm pretty sure people are born gay, they don't choose to be, same as the other examples I mentioned.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Paedophiles say they are born that way. Murder is one of the most natural human instincts. Neither is acceptable to the majority of us.

Many people see homosexuality as a big a crime as either of those. And if that belief is kept private and they don't push hate or act on it then why should they not be allowed their belief? Why should they be forced to wear a symbol of something they are against?

I do think the Poppy is different to this too. You can have an ethical stance on war etc because, ultimately, war is a choice. Being homosexual isn't.

Why are you using paedophillia to compare with homosexuality? These are vastly different things

I will never be able to get my head around homophobia.

Especially from people claiming to be Christians. Have they not read the New Testament.

Even if people did choose to be gay though, who actually gives the slightest shīt?

Why? Is having natural urges to fack kids any different to natural urges to fack someone of the same gender? it is all just natural, and they are born that way.

Surely you can see the difference though. In terms of why society would accept one (between consenting adults) and the other (where there's a under-age victim)

Religious people, mainly. The sportsmen referred to in the article being examples. Equally, if people didn't want to wear a symbol to support LBGTQwhatever why should anyone give the slightest shiiit? But here we are, with sportsmen unable to play because clearly people do give a shiiiit about them not wearing a rainbow.

Whom chose the age? The same people who declared homosexuality a crime?

Because children are not deemed to have the mental capacity to consent to sěx. It is where the term 'statutory rāpeee' comes from.

Genuinely cannot believe I'm having to explain this to someone.

Must be surely?

I read about this yesterday.
My opinion is that it should be down to the players if they want to wear it or not, unless they are contractually obliged to do so.
I’d be interested to know if they could wear the same kit, minus the Pride element. I think it states that all team members should wear identical kits though (I haven’t read the article today).
There was a player that refused to take the knee in the PL, forget who it was. Is this really any difference?
I suppose it would boil down to the reasons the players gave for refusing to wear the kit. I don’t know if they have made that public, rather just a generic club statement. Apologies if the article today alludes more to this aspect.

Became obvious when he started comparing it to paedophilia.

Who decided that though? Many societies feel "kids" are mentally capable to make that decision.
The term "statutory raape" comes from law makers. The same place that made homosexuality a crime in many places.

You say one is silly and the other isn't, yet many societies disagree with you and say it is the other way round.

That is your opinion. The sportsmen also have an opinion, why should they not be allowed that?

Just let the players who don’t wanna wear it do so, then the whole world can see who the homophobes are so we can all laugh at them.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
The whole world? You live in a bubble. I'd say the only ones that are forcing it are just a few countries. Mainly, UK, western Europe, US/Canada and Australia.
