One thing I don't agree with is that gay/lesbian couples can adopt or have kids (unless the child was born from a "normal" relationship before they turned/decided/found out to be gay). It's one thing to live one's life the way they want, but to subject the kid to "gay bias" while growing up is another. Comes down to what is "biologically correct". Again, this is just my opinion...

Completely agree with that. That should not be allowed at all.

If the choice was between abusive hetrosexual parenting & loving, caring homosexual parenting, I suspect all of would prefer the loving, caring parent. Just an example...

I understand the argument for conventional nuclear families - I have one after all but I think sometimes we need to look deeper than our own personal ideals to find what may in fact be a viable alternative

I know a lesbian couple looking to conceive a child...you'd never guess their sexuality if you met them, they have a great relationship, they will be great parents...it seems strange but the child (assuming they conceive) will be loved & have everything that any other child will have. Mum & ....er, Mum have thought through all the issues & have good strategies. I honestly believe they are doing the right thing & their child will be whoever it wants to be

I know another lesbian couple. No plans for kids, living life to the full & incredibly good looking - seriously hot...horses for courses!

I would have to agree as well...I mean you CHOOSE a lifestyle that prevents you from being able to have your own kids, yet you still want them? Not to mention what you mentioned. My ex's mom was a lesbian (which is why she divorced my ex's father) and it had a stange effect on her.

Hi guys,this is fun.I noticed someone mentioned irani homosexuals,or lack of.If your caught being gay,they cut your head off!.So the guys with homosexual tendencies bu***r the little boys!If you look back into history,they have been doing this for millenia.Vlad the impaler was given to the Turks as a way of stopping them invading romania.guess what happened to him? Thats why he liked impaling people!(He's the guy dracula's based on)This repression is more dangerous than openness.As for battlefield high jinks,I would go without a "roll in the hay" rather than be shot to pieces by a fundamentalist(the clues in the name,mentalist!) As would a gay soldier.I've got a friend,Big gay Dave,he's big and gay,He would kill for his nieces,literally! It's not down to sexual prefferences,it's down to who you are,If you're a twat,you're a twat whether you're gay or not. My girlfriend's friend is bi,he can't find a girl he gets on well enough with tyo settle down.It's up to him,he's not affecting kids ,or anyone else really.

I agree with you. Although Im no psychologist i believe that kids do naturally follow in their parents footsteps. Check out this poem by Larkin.


They fuck you up, your mum and dad.
They may not mean to, but they do.
They fill you with the faults they had
And add some extra, just for you.

But they were fucked up in their turn
By fools in old-style hats and coats,
Who half the time were soppy-stern
And half at one another's throats.

Man hands on misery to man.
It deepens like a coastal shelf.
Get out as early as you can,
And don't have any kids yourself.
