The Mary Cheney lesbian baby birthing threads are deteriorating into two factions, those who think it's ok for lesbians/homosexuals to raise kids and those who don't.
Please answer Yes or No to the following question: Do you approve of Homosexual/Lesbian couples raising children?
No, sexual deviants should not raise children.
Funny, I would have argued just the opposite. I think if a gay couple wants to adopt a child, who otherwise wouldn't have a home, that would be fine. But I think it is cruel to intentionally create a child into that situation. I'm speaking morally here, not legally.
I've only replied to those who took offense at my post or wanted to debate the question instead of answering a simple yes or no.
Does the turkey baster get visitation rights?

Since Jul 8, 2006
"Heather has two mommies" was a public policy issue - about whether the topic should be forcibly taught in schools to children.
what Heather's mommies are doing at home, is none of our business. That's the difference we are pointing out, and which your broad question does not address.

Vanity posts do not belong in news/activism.
NO
FReepers complaining about this being in News/Activism.
yes, especially those from state orphanages/homes. I can't believe anyone on FR would rather confine kids to the state (that's the government) than to a gay couple.
The question is a society/culture question. You are making it political.
No
ROTFLOL!
Cute.
many heterosexual woman have babies through IVF, do we ask the same question then?
actually it is your "freakin'" business.
It is not just that a homosexual woman gives birth to a child.
Legally a homosexual woman who gives birth to a child is a single mother with all the baggage and statistices which single motherhood by design brings to the childs life.
More need for social program help, more likely to be in criminal trouble, mental problems etc.
In addition, there is a second question regarding the politics of sexual behavior. Homosexuals have to do a legal fiction in order to be the "second parent" on the birth certificate. Again YOU pay for their decision to give the child a further burden against normalcy.
It is not a matter of accepting or rejecting. This is an absurd question. It is simply a matter of what is best for raising children. Homosexuals raising children is simply unacceptable, to the child and to society.
Society rewards the institution not the individual.
Society recieves only negativity with homosexuals rasing children.
Ok, so you've stated your opinion in a previous post.
Now we see you'll be playing the role of the pro-homo cheerleader in this thread.
