It shouldn’t surprise that under the heading ‘Sexual Identity’ the internet-based Kids Helpline promotes gender fluidity and diversity to children and teenagers based on the argument it’s wrong to ‘assume being straight is “normal”’.

The Kids Helpline argues instead of being biologically determined (boys have XY chromosomes and girls XX chromosomes), gender fluidity and diversity prevail on the basis ‘sexuality is about how you see and express yourself sexually – like who you have a crush on, who you want to go out with, and who you want to have sexual experiences with’.
