The GayBC’s Book Targets Toddlers

I was sent a link to a post on Twitter that shows a video of what appears to be a 4 or 5-year-old boy who is sitting on a woman’s lap as the woman is reading an interactive children’s book with him while going through the alphabet. Nothing wrong with that, right? Except, instead of learning his ABC’s he’s being taught his GayBC’s. Wait, what?

A picture/word book titled The GayBC’s was written by Matt Webb, a gay graphic designer by trade, teaches LGBTQ vocabulary with illustrations and poems to bring gay teaching to readers ages 4 through 8 so that they can be able to “discuss identity with their loved ones.”

In the book, young children can learn the alphabet to ensure parents are having a dialogue with their children about their sexual orientation at a very young age. Here are some of the alphabet words the book uses.
