If you think Lil Nas X is turning your child gay, you need to read this tweet

Of course homophobes wouldn’t let Lil Nas X ascend into music superstardom without panicking about his impact on impressionable young minds.

But if you’re one of the parents mistaken enough to believe that a gay rapper could “turn” your child gay, please read and give serious thought to this tweet.

“If watching Lil Nas X’s video turns your gay, just… show them ‘WAP’ and change them back… you know… since evidently that’s how this whole thing works,” Twitter user Ryan Shores wrote, before signing off with a strong choice of words, per a screenshot from the gay_irl Tumblr account.

(Tumblr user incompetentmedic had a funny response, too, writing, “Instructions unclear — my child is now bisexual.)

Romper writer Lane Moore, meanwhile, wrote an excellent response to the “Very Concerned Parents” who worry about their kids consuming Lil Nas X’s music videos.

The fact is, if you’re really worried about your kids suddenly becoming something other than who they really are, due to media influence, I’d ask you to acknowledge that it’s already doing that. So many queer people I know, myself included, never saw themselves fully in media, and even now, only very rarely even though the strides made have been wonderful. The only thing the increased visibility of queer artists like Lil Nas X will do is show your child that if they are queer, it is beautiful, and it is acceptable.

And to the artist born Montero Hill, we say, keep doing you!
