An 8 Year Old's Take on Homosexuality

When we were in the Orlando airport last week, Ezra and Gila were doing some hypothetical talking. I am not sure how it began but here is the conversation I overheard:

Gila: Well the two girls will get married to eachother.

Ezra: Can't happen.

Gila: Why?

Ezra: The girl has the egg, the boy has the sperm. They fertilize together to make a baby. Doesn't work with two girls or two boys.

*Greg looking at Ezra in astonishment

Ezra: What? Do I read too much?

Without invoking any social commentary on this, I thought it was pretty funny.
