Just How Do Kids React Really to Gay Marriage? Video Shows You Their Reactions
They might just be kids but there is no mistaking that these young children provide the most honest and truthful reactions and opinions to just about any subject matter presented to them under the sun. In the latest installment from the Kids React series, American filmmakers Benny and Rafi Fine delved on gay equality and same-sex marriage. The reactions they got from the kids were, basically, overwhelmingly positive.
And if there's something worth proving, today's kids can definitely handle bigger, adult issues such as gay equality and same-sex marriage.
"Gay and lesbian shouldn't be hiding."
"It's normal now."
Capturing the reactions of 13 children between the ages of 5 and 13, Benny and Rafi aimed to specifically target the kids' emotions and thoughts on the subject matter.
"The opinions of children about these issues can give incredibly valuable insight into where our society currently stands and where we are headed as people. It's important to discuss these topics openly in hopes of a better tomorrow through dialogue and conversation."
The 13 children were shown two types of videos depicting marriage proposals between gay men and lesbian women. It took some time for the video contents to seek in, but when the kids ultimately got the message, anti-gay marriage advocates might suffer a heart attack with their reactions.
"Anyone should be able to marry anyone!"
"You can't tell people who to marry."
"That was so adorable."
"I don't get why anybody would be mad!"
"The first time I ever heard about it I was like 'okay, that's kind of weird', but people should be together if they like each other a lot."
The video has been watched by three million times and still counting as of Wednesday morning. Watch it here and ask yourself how you would react if you were in their shoes:
