As I recall, it wasn't even that big.

Having two loving parents, gay or not, is exactly what a kid needs to get over the teasing...

I just don't see this rampant homophobia that you think will plague their lives. I live in an area with a big mix of backgrounds and wealth, and I don't recall seeing or hearing any genuine homophobia (and we do have a few gay couples around).


I completely agree. I think that what we are disagreeing about is whether it is social engineering any longer.

I am pretty sure that kids don't learn to be gay...

I just think in the eyes of many who want to change society that gay adoption should be promoted in that one day it will be seen as acceptable which may be one day it would but as far as i'm concerned end's do not justify means.

It would at the end of the day amount to social engineering and the children that would go through the social adjustment stage would have one hell of a hard time.

Yes kid's taunt each other but the kind of taunting those kids would get would be at another level.

You can groom kids into pretty much any form of sexuality.

And 94% of prisoners are men. Clearly only women should be allowed near children.


Evidence?
