Funnily enough, I had a completely different video planned for today but as you may have

If you're not already following me on Twitter, my handle is @JessicaOOTC, which stands for

JessicaOutOfTheCloset- which is my Instagram name. Because: Gay. And Fashion... Mainly

As you may have seen on my Twitter, my last video, looking at historical inaccuracies

in the recent film Mary Queen of Scots, was demonetised for content.

Content that you're taught when you're about eight.

But no, history is just too exciting for youtube… or some such tosh.

I'd say it's pretty safe content but I don't get to make the rules, I just have

to live by them and then mass email YouTube to complain about it. I'm thorough that

If you'd like to lend a hand in this situation, and believe that it is indeed 'tosh' please

(A) complain to youtube and (B) consider buying a piece of my merch, because it's adorable

- limited edition 'some such tosh' merch available until the 25th of May, terms and

conditions apply, I'm joking there are no terms and conditions, it just sounds fancy.

Speaking of the demonetisation of educational content and misguided adults overreacting

about what children's brains can deal with… I decided to hell with it, let's make another

'Why LGBTQ+ relationships should be taught in schools.'

If you disagree with that statement, keep watching to the end because… you'll get

chocolate. And it's important to hear different points of view.

Despite being a disabled AND gay content creator, I don't often get hit with the 'not suitable

for all advertisers' stick. I generally keep my channel and social medias 'family

friendly', both because (1) this Britishness is not an act, I am this much of a Victorian

in real life, I don't swear and I don't like talking about downstairs things and (2)

As someone who knew I was very gay from a very young age I think it's vital that there

is content out there that is accessible for baby queers. As a child I desperately wanted

to be able to see gay content that wasn't based on sex or physical intimacy-

Or weird tense lesbian relationships where the new bad girl at school corrupts the other

one with all of her sexual prowess and eyeliner and then someone has to die.

Just like straight kids enjoy cute, innocent portrayals of disney princes and princesses

who meet, get married and only then kiss for the first time yet say 'ew' when they

see adults kissing… I wanted a cute, innocent portrayal of two princesses who go on adventures

'Sexuality' does not equal 'sex' 'Homosexuality' does not equal 'oh my

Which brings us to the main problem we're talking about today: the thought that even

the idea of LGBTQ+ people existing is too 'mature' to be talked about in schools.

Because, obviously, people don't become gay or trans until their 18th birthday(!)

And gay parents don't exist(!) We're gay, then we have kids, and we become asexual until

the 18th birthday of our youngest child. At midnight. On the dot.

No wait, asexuals are on the rainbow spectrum!

This is currently what we call 'a drama' in England following protests by parents at

Parkfield Primary School in Birmingham over the 'No Outsiders' project, which teaches

Let me repeat that for you: it teaches tolerance of diverse groups.

It's not sex education. It's nothing to do with sex. It merely teaches that minority

As part of this project, pupils are taught about the positive values of diversity, tolerance

and acceptance, in a wide-ranging curriculum encompassing LGBT+ rights, same-sex relationships,

Hilariously however, parents decided to protest this with signs reading 'say no to no outsiders'.

So you're okay with a child being ostracised because of their sexuality, gender identity

You might argue differently but that's what you're saying.

You're saying that isolating a child, putting them in the corner, bullying them, is fine

if they are a minority. It's fine to do that to a child who is not white, it's fine

to do that to a child who is not straight, it's fine to do that to a child who is not

Tension between the parents and the school were escalated when local Labour MP Shabana

Mahmood intervened and appeared to side with parents opposing the lessons for religious

- again, all these lessons are saying is that gay people exist and you shouldn't hit them.

Tory MP Andrea Leadsom then got involved and said it was “absolutely right” for parents

to be able to withdraw their children up to a certain age from LGBT+ classes as parents

should get to decide when their children “become exposed to that information”.

I didn't realise my gayness was nuclear radiation but now I do I'm hoping it gives

me a cool mutant power! Like the ability to turn everything sparkly around me.

What Leadsom's words 'expose' is how little understanding there is of what the

queer existance is about. Spoiler: not just genitals.

I love my wife. I love my wife like a straight girl loves her husband. That love is not 'different'

or 'weird' or 'hypersexualised'. It's just love. Love is pure, and it's beautiful

and it's harmless. When we have children they will be born from that love and they

will feel as securely, warmly adored as if they had a mum and a dad because there is

But Andrea Leadsom doesn't think that small children should see that love?

I guess what she's trying to say is that, in order to be a good parent, the second my

wife gives birth I must hand her divorce papers, move out and love her from afar but not talk

to her until our child is a legal adult. At which point we are allowed to get remarried

and be happy together… probably until we become grandparents. When we'll have to

get divorced again… until our grandchild is 18. Wow. This is going to be a lot of legal

work here, Andrea. I hope you've taken that into consideration… (!)

Whilst the parents who protested the lessons are Muslim, Leadsom's weighing in shows

that this isn't an issue confined to any one faith. And also that faith isn't an

excuse. You don't get to hit someone and then say “oh, it's okay, you can't tell

me off for that, my religion doesn't like that person.”
