I have known three gays with kids (spanning my lifetime). All the kids are now grown and are VERY straight. I know two of them are probably more conservative than me, and that's REALLY gatting conservative. I'm not advocating here. I don't think gays should be anywhere near the responsibility of raising children. I know from these kids, rebellion was a good thing.

BTW, none of these grown kids have much of a relationship with their non-related "parents". Some of these households had a very high "lifemate" turnover rate.

I would think, in my way of thinking, that the cases you cite are the exceptions that prove the rule.

Homosexuals rarely keep longterm partners - alot of heterosexuals don't either, for that matter.

I firmly believe that environmental factors outweigh genetics - a fag is as a fag does... and it is a learned, not an instinctual behavior. Children generally do as they learn from their "parents".

I would not like to think about a small boy in a household with two gay men: after all, the adults are already violating natural law and cultural mores... why not break a few more? Like pedophillia and incest?

And there is no telling how many times the kids were molested by the parade of illicit "partners" and threesomes and s & m and scatological and other sexual deviants travelling in and out of the orbit of the "parents."
