Your "evidence" you speak of show the genetic mapping of the gay gene. In your honest opinion you don't think there is ANY impact towards a child that grows up with two same sex parents?

Who does the child call mother or father? Do the parents role play or do they act as if having two fathers and no mother is normal? If you have two fathers who goes to your girl scout meetings? For two mothers who helps the son with football?

I don't believe women can have the same understanding about males than men, and the same goes for men not understanding their daughters as well as a mother could.

It is your right to believe that two mothers can provide all the information and understanding that a son might need but I find it hard to believe they can help with the odd questions of puberty, help with sports/hunting/camping, not that I'm saying women don't do these things but I'm sure if I took the time I could find you the percentages that most women don't like hunting, camping, or sports. With that said there are men out there that don't like them as well.

What I find amazing is this was an opinion questi on and you are trying to throw facts proving one opinion wrong or another. If you follow my thought process for a second imagine flying. There are people who hate flying and think they will die every time they get on a plane. You can show them overwhelming evidence that it is indeed safe to fly but that won't change how they feel. The same goes for this. Your opinion is people are born gay the world they live in doesn't influence that a bit and that same sex parents won't effect a child and in fact will be the same as a family that grows up with a  mother and a father. Now my opinion differs slightly not even that I go against you, but you still feel the need to come across angry because we don't share the same view point. I don't understand why you can't have a debate without swearing or coming off abrasive with insults.

are raised by a grandparent or single parent   and they turn out fine. They seem to get all the information they need to become a well rounded individual.

The "ideal family"  the conservatives rant on about is an endangered species.

The idea that a gay couple has to role play to copy your idea of an ideal family is ludicrous .

Who goes to the girl scout meeting?  Your kidding right?

Really, what kind of parents go to something like that?

You are right, plenty of people are raised by single parents and by grandparents, but do you honestly think that they have it the same as a family with both parents?

I never had a father that could really play sports with me due to physical issues. That doesn't mean he didn't love me or push me to be better, but the simple fact is I would have loved it more if he could. The same goes for every child raised by one parent or grandparent. There will always be that "what if" feeling had they had a mother or a father.

I can not believe you think the "ideal" family isn't better than having a broken family.
