Homosexual activists understand the power of words.
Please visit my channel to watch a one-minute video clip in which popular atheist author Richard Dawkins admits that homosexual activists "hijacked the word 'gay'".
The word "homosexual" is more appropriate and accurate because it, unlike the word "gay", actually describes the behavior/attraction/relationship being discussed.
The word "gay" helps homosexual activists push their agenda.
I watched this in the hopes that i would find some decent information on the effects of LGBT parenting on children, but while watching it I realized that A LOT of this information is taken out of context. It would be nice if you provided the source where you got this info. It's so hard finding relevant information! And, btw, research has shown that children reared by LGBT parents are mentally and socially stable, more so then that of a home with opposite gender parents that drink or smoke.
ignorance. Thats what this video is made of my friend. I have a friend who was raised by two mothers and he turned out just fine, what you would call "normal". Be raised by a gay couple does not effect them at all.
"Kids do best when they have a married mother and a married father". Sadly, they didn't talk about the fact that each parent is married to another person....
I'm sure two commited, loving people marrrying each other is far worse for the "sanctity" of marriage than, say, Britney Spears marrying a high school sweetheart for 55 whole hours, or that Kardashian chick marrying for a whopping 72 days....
"significantly less" ........ "more likely" ........ "less chaste" ...... honestly, how immature and naive must one be to upload a video which such speculation? ........ lol, i pity the uploader, your straight parents have damaged you my friend
So we should wonder then how homosexuality can even exist if the heterosexual marriage is the only way children turn out - as measured by society - normal.
The truth is sometimes harsh............true none the less! Kids reared in atmospheres of crime, drugs, alcoholics, physical abuse, sexual deviants, poverty and any other social ill has two strikes against them from the start and their chances of ever escaping those abominations are extremely low. Birds of a feather, flock together....!
OMG i am currently doinga lit review on effects of homosexual parently and you information is fabricated or manipulated or the researchers are biased in their approach. the only one piece of valid research stated any different between children from homosexual parents and hetrosexual parents. (notnaming ) but every other piece of research confirms my belief that homosexual parents has no more or less effects on children as opposed to hetrosexual parents. Homophobia = ignorance
For those who care to read it, I cant post a link. Youtube wont allow it. But finding the study is easy, simply look for: "how does the sexual orientation of parents matter american sociological review". By Judith Stacey and Timothy J. Biblar.
And btw, its not all bad what that study says. The study you mention is a study about 21 other studies. And study you talk about does not show at all that gay parenting is bad. It just shows that studies done so far where not thorough enough. People were afraid of stepping on left and right wing toes. And their methods are being questioned. Try reading it, it actually suggests more rights for gay parents. page 178, bottom right corner.
How dare you, dear poster of this video, talk about facts when all you have is the "highlights" of a biased organisation.You claim to have reviews of 21 studies... Where? Link to them please, instead of making these claims.
credible information from the american psychological association...lgbt parents are actually, in most cases, better parents than heterosexuals....read it up, people.
Parents don't influence their childrens sexuality, the belief that it does is bull, just look at most gay people most of them were raised by straight parents yet most of them still turned out gay so how can that be explained also what about children raised by bisexual parents will the children turn out bisexual and what about children raised by transgender parents will the children turn out transgender, of course not, a parents sexuality and gender has no bearing and influence on a child.
Every family is different and every child will face a different struggle because of it. Married, remarried, single or divorced. Low-income, high-income, in between jobs or workaholic. Religious, ethnic, conservative or progressive. Controlling, carefree, open or reserved. There is no image of a perfect family but there is an ideal: loving, nurturing, safe, happy and healthy. As long as children grow up understanding that their parents love them unconditionally what does gender matter?
So they're different in the fact they are more evolved and comfortable with not conforming to a strict pseudo-christian code of social norms? They're open minded, explore themselves and become sexually mature and responsible adults? Yeah that's terrible, protect them please! We need more right wing conservative idiotic moronic bible thumping hypocrisy regurgitated out of the mouths of corrupt political agenda pushing republicans to produce more social atrocities like yourself. You're a winner.
Wow. Your argument is shit. I can tear it apart in two seconds. Your argument is all about conformity to what you see as "normal" society. Yes, maybe kids raised by gay or leisban parents are more likely to engage in a same sex relationship, but that doesn't mean they will. And maybe they will just to see what it's like and then decide "Nope i'm straight" that's how it was for me. So really you just need to shut the fuck up.
Are you seriously stateing that homosexual parents raise their kids to become more likely to turn out homosexual? If you would know something about the subject, then you obviously would have known that enviorment and nurture is not what makes a person homosexual.
Those of you who tend to believe in research are the ones who to put God in front of your believe, that gay couples can't raise kids!! God and sience are two different things, aren't they?? Anyway: Did you have any experience with samesex couples and their children up close?? Did you get to see the 'normal' love there is from parents towards children??? No...you asswipes hide behinde 'facts'! The only fact is that children from samesex families have no problems with homosexuality!
First of all, it's from 2001, and there's more recent research from APA and AACAP among others, showing that this isn't true, and also that lesbians' and gays' parenting skills have been proven superior to heterosexuals'.
Furthermore, the author of this report said "many of the differences are those that any democratic society should welcome.".
And lastly, search for Judith Stacey (the author) + children here on YouTube and listen to what she have to say. Thanks :)
Sorry to continue, but I just found it funny that you chose to use "...sons of lesbians behave in less traditionally masculine ways." That sentence begins with "When it comes to aggressiveness". In other words, sons of lesbians are less violent. Now is that really bad?
And the daughters... It sounds like you don't like gender equality. One of the findings is that the daughters of lesbians aspire for careers as lawyers, doctors or astronauts more than those of heterosexual mothers.
I did not mean to suggest that adopted kids struggle with parentification. That was misspeaking.
I meant to suggest that studies examining the phenomenon of parentification come to conclusions that suggest there is reason to be concerned that the children of gays are parentified (that is, that the normal roles of responsibility and boundaries are inverted, so that these children are responsible for their parents' well being instead of vice versa).
Is there any "proof" that children raised by gay couples are not affected by the experience, that does not derive directly from the population of children who were raised specifically TO BE EVIDENCE of this?
I'm concerned because studies that are not linked to political controversies come to different conclusions - re: the harm done by motherlessness, fatherlessness, whether adopted kids struggle with grief, identity issues, parentification, etc.
It is a proven fact that is not the gender but the quality of the parents that matters. In a study done it showed that 0% of children of lesbian parents reported abuse opposed to 24% of kids with hetero parents. Being gay harms no one. All that "info" you provided was pure bullshit.
You completely twisted her words Yes children of homosexuals are going to be different they are going to be more accepting Of everything There is an estimated 127,000 children awaiting adoption every year and you would rather them grow up with nothing rather than just let someone adopt them just because theyre gay Thats like saying you don't want Mexicans raising your children Even if they are missing that father role your forgetting that there are males that will still be in these kids lives
"A significantly greater proportion of children had engaged in a same sex relationship." - Again, so what? And again I'm not convinced this is true, but if it is then it's probably because the children are more open minded and realise that they are allowed to love someone of the same sex as well as opposite sex.
This video is ridiculous. "Daughters of lesbians behave in ways that do not conform to sex-typed cultural norms. Sons of lesbians behave in less traditionally masculine ways." - I don't think there is any evidence to support this, but so what if they do? Not all men are really masculine (and nor should they have to be) and not all women are feminine. I say you should behave in a way that feels comfortable to you, as long as it doesn't affect other people.
HMM? I WOULD SAY THERE ARE MORE ISSUES IN A HETEROSEXUAL PARENTING SECT THAN HOMOSEXUAL. GO TO YOUR LOCAL SOCIAL SERVICES ANDSEE THE TRUE FACTS OF WHAT HETEROSEXUALS HAVE DONE WITH THEIR RIGHTS FOR MARRIAGE AND PARENTING. ITS LAUGHABLE THAT U ACTUALLY THINK U HAVE A CASE AGST REAL MEN AND WOMEN WHO LVE UNCONDITIONALLY WITH TOLERANCE AND UNDERSTANDING . YOU GUYS HAVE FUCKED UP TRADITIONAL MARRIAGE AND PARENTING. LET SOMEONE ELSE SHOW U HOW ITS DONE.
You are realllly misinformed. It doesn't matter what gender it is. I was raised by heterosexual parents. in a catholic dominated redneck/cowboy town in southwest kansas. Everywhere i LOOKED there were heterosexuals. I am homosexual. So from the reasoning of this video I could say that heterosexuals create homosexual children.
as long as you have a home full of love, and loving parents that should be enough. I know a lot of kids coming from foster care, and from broken homes who would gladly be taken care of by gay parents. This clip was extremly one sighted..
@kulihihi Yeah fucking right ive seen time and time again from a personal experence gay parents make gay children ive seen with two children both turned out gay one child she turned gay. All of this fag culture is a result of the khazarian jews over-representing themselves this has been happening time after time again. This gay uprising is spawned for population deductions and if im kidding they put toxic bi-product of aluminum production and it makes you passive and stupid.
@wtfjaftw this you are saying are still one sighted. Even though you have seen a few kids grow up to be gays does not mean that all of them will.. look at all the other movies about kids with gay parents none of them seem to have to choose the gay side do thay? All of them gets a choice no matter what. Im raised by hetrosexuall parents, and my sister. Both are in love with the same sex. and NO its NOT gay uprising.
I live just the same way as i did when i liked men. And i still love them. So if you dont like people loving each other keep it to your self. And not the internett. Find something else to doo...
Quack statistics. You go on their website, and they have 2 studies: one from Witherspoon Institute, which is linked to the Opus Dei religious fanatic organization The Da Vinci Code (!). The other is to the so-called Harvard Law and Public Policy mag, which is linked to the rightwing Federalist Society. Great, nonbiased reporting there! What--KKK Journal of Pubic Policy wasn't available? Rightwing douches.

kids are designed to develop best in a stable family including their own biological mother and father. there are people who can still lead normal lives in situations such as: single parenthood, gay/lesbian parenthood, abusive parenthood, and orphanism, but they are at a HUGE disadvantage. even little things like their father's smell being in the house can make major positive psychological differences
Published this January in Journal of Marriage and Family. A review of studies, a new study, and coverage of what makes earlier conclusions and assertions that same sex parents make worse parents wrong. One of the authors is one your friend quotes, Dr. Judith Stacey. You can look her up on Youtube. She talks about how her research has been misrepresented.
@jans4555 Research can be manipulated to prove the desired results. Look at global warming. Very intelligent people have been misled while those who are twisting the truth get grant after grant. Is smoking good for your health or bad? Scientists have proven that both are correct! Ultimately we each have to choose whats right or wrong. I feel homosexuality is hurting my queer and lesbian friends in ways they dont understand. They disagree, but we are still friends.
@k10star - um, where do you get your science information? Smoking is bad. What is good about it? Global warming is real, unless you use Fox news for your facts. Homosexuality hurts no one. And I don't believe for one minute that your gay and lesbian friends are really accepting of your homophobia. I hear this all the time "I have gay friends and they know how I feel". My respnose is "Yea? Do you know how they REALLY feel? Or are they just keeping the peace?"
@k10star Did you know that in the study done by Stacey and Biblarz, they actually tell that the studies now used by anty gay movements are way to biased? Speaking of unreliable science... Here we go. In fact, the study done by Stacey and Biblarz is more in favor of gay parenting then against it.
@k10star No. It's homophobic people with prehistoric ideas like you that hurts them. And if anyone has a record of twisting things it's gotta be religious based institutions.
@jans4555 "How does the gender of parents matter"?
If gender is irrelevant, why don't gays just marry the person they actually make a baby with, instead of going to so much fuss to try to prove that it's somehow harmless to "give" the child to a stepfather, instead of just recognizing, honoring, and respecting the child's relationship with his real mother.
That gender is not interchangeable is fundamental to the debate.
@vicorii - because they love someone of the same gender. Because that is what is normal for gay people. Being gay is not a choice. It is a variation in nature. We've all seen what happens in heterosexual couples where the couple feels pressured to get married due to a pregnancy. Children deserve to be wanted and have parents who love each other. Using your logic, why should people be allowed to adopt? Gender is not interchangeable? What does that even mean?
@MomSpeaksOut A divorced man may stop loving his wife, but that does not give him the right to cut her off from the children and "give" the children to someone else.
The courts have already decided this.
Because children have a LEGAL RIGHT and a BASIC HUMAN RIGHT to have a relationship with both parents.
Adoption is supposed to be a response to a crisis. It is NOT HARMLESS. It is merely less harmless than the alternative.
Children are not for selling. Trafficking is a crime.
Full article at Journal of Marriage And Family Timothy Biblarz of the USC:
"The bottom line is that the science shows that children raised by two same-gender parents do as well on average as children raised by two different-gender parents. This is obviously inconsistent with the widespread claim that children must be raised by a mother and a father to do well."
@jans4555 I guess it depends on what you mean by do well. Dozens of studies all say that overall, kids raised by a loving father and mother do better than those raised by single parents or parents of the same sex.
@k10star - the entire American Psychological Association doesn't agree with you. Provide references to the studies, the journals, the researchers and the peer reviewers.
As for your counselor friend with "special training" he certainly did not learn that at any accredited university. So - where did he receive his training and what is his degree in?
@jans4555 My friend has a Masters from an accredited university! Its amazing is how many researchers are trying to conceal these findings. Even the APA is backing down on the concept of a gay gene after looking for proof for over 20 years. There are at least 9 studies funded by pro-homosexual groups whose findings show that children raised by homosexual couples are 4 to 10 times more likely to be non-heterosexual. Go to drtraycehansen com
@poolerboy0077 I have not have not had time to check current search engine results, but if you search for USC Sociologists the 21 studies they used were available at the USC website. There are newer projects with even more compelling findings but you have to get past the headlines. Most of this research was funded by pro-homosexual organizations and they tend to hide their own findings. When I have time I'll update the video and include more sources.
@poolerboy0077 I have a friend who is a counselor and has received special training to help him work with homosexuals. During the training he was taught that people who decide they are gay all have a common list of things or circumstances in their past that seems to lead to their same-sex attraction. Before the training, and his counseling homosexuals he thought they were born that way, but now hes 99.9% sure its a learned behavior.
I'm not sure if you yourself have read any of these, but these studies to not support your conclusions whatsoever. For example, in the Golombok et al. study it was concluded that "rearing in a lesbian household per se did not lead to atypical psychosexual development or constitute a psychiatric risk factor."

Moreover, the argument about a gay gene is a fundamental misunderstanding about genetics. Homosexuality has been demonstrated to be genetic, but this is not because there has been a "gay gene" found since that isn't how genes normally work just as you don't have one "diabetes gene" to get diabetes genetically. This isn't "pro-homosexual" but rather a recognition of reality.
@poolerboy0077 I was under the impression that Type 2 diabetes appears to be caused by lifestyle. Most research I have seen indicates that poor diet and lack to exercise brings on the disease, not obesity or genetics as is was once theorized. Doctors seldom rely on the correlation of common cause statistics, but it seems to be the case with diabetes and many feel its the same with homosexuality.
Type 2 is a combination of genetics and poor diet. Think of it like the genetics of alcoholism where the trigger is alcohol. You don't have to take my word for it as you can visit the American Diabetics Association (they write, for example, that Type 2 "has a stronger genetic basis than Type 1").
As with the main topic at hand, you can also verify the genetic basis on homosexuality by visiting the NIH's PubMed and reading the follow study: "A genomewide scan of male sexual orientation."
Moreover, where you quote that "lesbian mothers have a feminizing effect on their sons..." is not part of a study but rather a (disingenuous) commentary on an earlier study cited by Tasker and Golomok (1997), about girls raised by lesbians being more sexually adventurous and less chaste (and boys raised by lesbians being more chaste and less sexually adventurous, which you left out).
It seems to be you haven't really read any of these studies and are simply regurgitating quotes found from some anti-homosexual website (perhaps NARTH). Finally, I should note that your position on the effects of same-sex child rearing is irrelevant to the issue of marriage. This issue would be pertinent if you were bringing up such topics in a discussion about same-sex adoption, but there's no *necessary* component of children to the definition of marriage.
@k10star So what elements in the past make someone gay ? And how does one get training in working with homosexuality i have done many courses and yes there are areas in sociology that go into homosexuality but special training ? all the gay people i know and studied come from varying backgrounds and have no comparisons to be made so i am rather interested in these "circumstances" that lead to same sex attraction.
@lesliemarf I dont know the elements I just know they exist. My friend had patients that were trying to overcome same-sex attraction for religious reasons. After attending some classes on same gender attraction, he found these patients suddenly felt like he was a mind reader. I have not asked him for a list, and I dont have the time or money t spend hundreds of hours studying it, but he says the commonalities are amazing.
@k10star So you don't actually have any facts other than gay people who want to overcome their homophobia due to their religious upbringing. Hey, BTW, global warming IS real. I doubt your gay friends really consider you a friend. Acquaintance maybe. I feel religion is hurting some of my friends but they are still my friends.
@jans4555 I know several ex-homosexuals both male and female who recognized their sexual orientation "feelings" were false. Their companions were good friends and they enjoyed sexual gratification with them until they met Mr. or Mrs. Right and realized their same-gender attraction had not real or fulfilling beyond physical stimulation and friendship.
@jans4555 As for global warming, yes, its very real. The climate does change but humans driving SUVs is not the cause of that change. When my father taught climate change in the 60s the text books wanted him to warn his university students of the coming ice age and global cooling. He did not! He warned them that scientists were just trying to get grant money and that the same data could be used to justify global warming. That was nearly 50 years ago!
@k10star Also a little side note most if not all studies i have read inc The American psychological association,American psychiatric association The Canadian psychological etc have stated that the outcome of the child has not been affected by having parents of the same sex so im really interested in getting you to site some sources so i can read the studies that you have been looking at.
@lesliemarf The APA and others "say" it has now affect in their summary and in the media headlines, but it you read their own studies that's simply not true. There are huge differences. They just don't seem to "think" those differences make matter. Here is a link with lots of information. You'll need to place the proper symbols in place since YouTube won't let us place links here.

I think that if 2 thiefs raise a child....odds are the child will be a thief. If a doctor and a nurse raise a child....odds are the child will be in the medical field. Children tend to mock their parents. You do the math
yes it does if your a child raised by a homosexual couple then there is a high chance that you will be picked on.
and if your the child raised by a hetrosexual couple there is a high chance that they will be doing the bullying to the child raised by the homosexual couple
well how come i turned out gay when i had both a mother and father as my parents, in a perfectly stable 2.5 children and a dog setting. i never even encountered a gay person until after i knew i was gay. where's the study on why heterosexual people are heterosexual is it because their parents are? and actually most studies say that the child is no more likely to turn out gay but are more likely to experiment (due to no societal restrictions) ,the outcome is still the same.
After several decades of trying to find a gay gene most of todays research is proving that homosexuality is learned through a variety of social interactions. You dont have to be exposed to homosexuals to have the life experiences needed to decide you are gay. Please cite your sources as virtually ALL published studies show children raised by gay parents are more likely to choose a gay or bi lifestyle. Since many are paid for by gay activists they try to hide this fact but the truth is there!
@lesliemarf I don't know, I have received no special training, but my friend who has received extensive training is 99.9% sure your same-sex attraction is the product of your experiences, not that you were born that way. His training has taught him to look for these commonalities and hes found them in all his gay patients, but not in his heterosexual patients.
Journal of Marriage and Family. Scholars, at USC and New York University Looked at various studies and concluded that same gender parent and concluded that as long as there is a stable home environment the child will be stable and please site your sources.Science hasn't even discovered a cure for the common cold so do you think that they would be spending millions to discover the gay gene?
As we have an initiative coming up next year in California to outlaw divorce, I challenge all those in the protect marriage coalition to vote to outlaw divorce. If you are all truly for protecting marriage, this is a no-brainer. I will look forward to seeing how this vote pans out. I have a feeling it won't fair as well as the yes on 8 fiasco. Prove me wrong people.
Great, but I think there should be 2 initiatives, one making adultery illegal again and one banning divorce except in the case of adultery or abuse. Most couples can overcome marriage challenges if they try even a little. But we also must protect those who, for no fault of their own become threatened. I know a wonderful woman whose husband, after years of marriage, became emotionally unstable and held a gun to her child's head... I believe that is an acceptable reason to ask for a divorce.
You're arguments are pretty stupid KStar. Straight kids brought up in straight families are as sexual as gays. Kids can be well-adjusted or not, no matter who raises them.
Divorce is a much bigger problem, why not work on that little miss protect marriage?
Obviously you're more concerned with denying equal rights to all than you are about protecting marriage. So sad.
Straight kids brought up in straight families are as sexual as gays. Are you trying to say that kids from straight families are as promiscuous as kids from gay families? Sorry, dozens of studies have proven that statement is false.
Additionally, after 20+ years of research there is no evidence to date that homosexuality is genetic.
If activists would quit trying to destroy our country's moral values and allow traditional family values to be taught, divorce rates would fall dramatically.
Oh poor Kstar, you must live in a bubble. If you believe kids raised by heteros are less promiscuous than kids raised by homos, you obviously don't pay attention to the world around you. Take off the blinders dear.
Also, anyone with an education knows studies can be skewed to establish what they intend.
No excuses for bigotry. Divorce rates among the moralistic christians have nothing to do with anyone else's belief structure outside that group. Your agenda is to deny equal rights, that simple.
Strike that, and reverse it. The studies I mentioned were conducted by the APA and other PRO-Homosexual organizations. There are dozens of them and they either try to hide the results or report the findings as if they were a good thing. I think you must be the one in the bubble. I have family, neighbors and friends who have chosen the gay lifestyle but none of them are bigoted haters. However, a very vocal minority wants nothing less than to silence Christian beliefs and its those who I oppose.
If people would be truly caring and respectful of each other instead of demeaning and selfish divorce would vanish. When my wife and I married 27 years ago we agreed that divorce would never be an option. We have had trials that typically end in divorce, but because we have been true and faithful to our marriage covenants we are more in love today than we were on our honeymoon. Why would I allow bigoted, hate filled gay activists to try and take that from my family without putting up a fight?
The only reason gays are fighting as hard as they are is because people like you deny them their equal rights and respect. I doubt you have gay friends with the views you hold. People are born gay they do not choose gay. Bisexuals may make choices, but gay is gay and straight is straight.
You talk about your marriage covenants as sacred but you completely deny these covenants to gays wanting to marry their loved ones. You are hypocritical and selfish. Sorry for you.
After 2+ decades of research there is ZERO evidence that gays are born gay, but lots of evidence that the lifestyle is learned. Let homosexuals have the same rights & responsibilities as heterosexuals as long as they don't try to call it marriage. I have no problem with my friends choosing a gay lifestyle. I dont have to agree with their choice to tolerate it & still be their friends, but they are also tolerant of my beliefs. Thats why some, but not all of my gay friends voted YES on prop 8.
I believe in Tolerance. By definition tolerance implies difference. Just because Coke and Pepsi are both cola flavored soft drinks doesnt mean Coke lovers who like the name Pepsi can pass a law requiring everyone to call Coke Pepsi. Marriage has always been a union between man and woman. Let gay couples create their own word for their union; dont try to change the definition of a word thats been used for centuries with the same meaning as a word thats been used for thousands of years.
Alright Kstar. I'll accept that you will not budge from your stance on this matter. Most self righteous people have difficulty changing their views once their minds are set.
I will however allow myself to try to understand how you believe as you do.
Please try to sway me with facts rather than hearsay. Would you please list the studies you are citing for the basis of your views. Perhaps there are too many to list them all so please share the top ten. Please inform me of the titles, authors, publications and dates so that I can see for myself, and perhaps get on board with you folks.
You can start by looking at this video. When I posted it the studies cited were available through a link at the USC website. I know that since that time there are even more studies and the latest research shows children of gay parents are even more likely to be sexually active at young ages and more likely to choose a gay or bi-sexual lifestyle than their counterparts raised by a loving mother & father. Most were funded homosexual activist groups so dont read the summary, read the fine print!
Yes, children raised by gay parents will grow differently, because no one is never a copy of the other. Difference is normal. I don't understand the matter. And about masculinizing girls and feminizing boys, you could see the same phenomenum in straight families. Men and Women do not have particular tasks in a family anymore, the sexs come closer the one to the other. That's what we call equallity. To conclude, ther's absolutely no problem.
Learned... Not sure. I'm part of the ones who claim homosexuality is not a choice. What you can see in classes, what may be taught in schools, is just tolerance. Children are taught to respect and consider homosexuality as something normal, such as the skin's color. I think you worry and think too much. We homosexuals claim we didn't choose to be homosexuals. You are who you are. That meens you are gay or not.
The only choice we make is to live with our homosexuality or to fight it. I think there's a point to enlight about that I'd love to have this conversation with you as you really look open-minded and honnest, but I'm affraid I can't because english not being my mother tongue I may lack of vocabulary. Anyway I desagree with you when you say it's a learned behaviour. My opinion is that it is like a taste, some prefer vanilla and others chocolate, that kind of stuff.
You say professional counseling can make a person overcome same sex attraction. Sure...if you are told you are broken and in need to be fixed you will be shamed into doing anything to avoid doing something which makes you happy. If one however is bi and not actually homosexual, it would not be a problem to find a person of the opposite sex.
I understand that most professional counseling does NOT work because the counselors dont understand the real problem. My friend takes a different approach and helps the person identify how and why they developed same-gender attraction. He says hes often accused of being a mind reader because the reasons are usually so similar to others hes counseled. Once they understand and deal with the issues they find they are no longer gay or bi, but straight only. He's had great success with this.
I'm not convinced, if homosexuality was so easy to leave, there wwould be no reason there remained homosexuals, because of discriminations, impossibility to have a child, this kind of stuff. I have to say, I feel a bit sad when I see people wanting to change homosexuals. Gays are a peaceful population, all they want is the equality in rights and to live a nice life the way straight people do, though they can't have children.
I have homosexual friends & family and you are right. They are peaceful. Several have become straight not bi and it was hard at first. They say being gay gave them a false sense of happiness but they didnt realize it was false at the time.
I also know several activists who are not peaceful. They are not friends but acquaintances. They are on the attack. They are bigoted and have an aggressive agenda. They openly admit their goal is to take away my freedom and silence my Christian beliefs.
If you are really about protecting the children, please watch the movie Daddy and Papa which shows four familes with children being parented by same sexed parents.
While you are not suggesting that gay parents can't raise kids, your video is saying that gay people should not be getting married in order to protect children. Thus if we are talking about protecting children you do not like the idea of gay people raising kids.
Also you are saying that homosexuality is a learned behavior, why on Earth would a person learn to be attracted to the same sex if they are in a country like Iraq which sends people to prison for being gay, or even kills them.
Ok even if homosexuality is a learned behavior like you say...why is it a problem if two people of the same sex make a life time commitment to each other. Their commitment to each other in no way effects you or your family.
I'm happy that my generation understands that it is love which makes a marriage. We will be the ones to recognize that gay people should be able to enter into a commitment to each other.
Why not go after all the divorced couples which is a greater sin than homosexuality in the bible. Children don't grow up with both parents in a divorced household so your argument against gay families is bunk. I don't understand why there's so much hate out there. It is hatred of the homosexual that is the basis of these arguments. At least be honest about that.
I don't hate anyone! I have many homosexual friends, relatives & neighbors. We get along fine!
I'm just tired of all the Christian bashers trying to spew lies & publishing half truths.
The point of this video is to show how MOST of studies commonly used to support gay parenting ALSO say that kids are BETTER OFF when raised by a loving FATHER & MOTHER than those raised by divorced (single) parents or homosexuals.
The point I was making is that in the video you seem to be singling out gay parenting while ignoring the children of single parents; and you are championing the denial of legal recognition of gay relationships, yet you don't seem to have a problem with divorced straights.
Also, you're obviously very angry, judging by all the capital letters, and such passionate anger is an extension of hate. In my opinion.
Im not mad or angry, just frustrated that gay activists continue to lie about the findings of their own research!
Youre obviously judging me, I merely use CAPS for emphasis not hate.
This video is singling out homosexual relationships. I created it last year; when I was being bombarded with so call research that "proved" gay parenting didnt hurt & maybe helped children.
So I read the details instead of the headlines & I learned that children do best when raised by LOVING mom & dad!
When you are advising people to vote against gay marriage, you are saying that the children of gay parents don't matter. If one parent dies, the other parent may loose custody of the child they helped raise for years because without being "married" the state does not see the partner of the biological parent as familly. How would you feel if someone were to take away the child you helped raise for years?
There is a school of thought among far left wack jobs that adopting and raising children is like adopting a puppy and raising it. God almighty help the children that have to grow up in such an atmosphere.
Its really sad that you cant accept that gay people have all the same rights that straight people have. These films are a terrible advert for your country. Stuff like this and the creationism lobby etc really make America look like the laughing stock of the planet.
As Green Day say "American idiots"!
The UK is fucked, but watching this bullshit on YT makes us remember how lucky we are over here!
Kids in LGBT families are going to face more prejudice. That's the problem. Kids from single parent homes have more problems too, especially divorced parents. Worry about that, ok?
Cite your source.Journal Children and Youth Services Review. An analysis of factors affecting teen attachment in adoptive families w/ gay and straight parents. University of Houston May 2008, Data on families with gay/lesbian and straight adoptive parents. This study was interested in factors affecting teen attachment incl. parent sexual orientation, teen and parent life satisfaction, The results suggest higher level of teen attachment to parents is not related to parent sexual orientation.

I also knew a guy who grew up with 2 fathers and he was straight and acted just like every other kid in the class. So i have witnessed people in this situation with results nothing like the ones being mentioned.
Dont you wish grew up with a LOVING father & mother?
The FACTS are clear. Dozens of studies show that kids are better off overall when raised by a loving father & mother. Note the word loving; its actually in the findings!
These are not biased studies. Many of them were funded by pro-homosexual activist organizations.
I made this video to show how these activists falsely report their findings to support their agenda because the TRUTH is diametrically opposed to their agenda.
This is a reply to a comment I deleted by accident, posted by babiesweethart973
This is very factual! No twisting of the FACTS. Do the research yourself, but really research, dont just look at the reported headlines. These facts are from research projects (over a dozen funded by homosexual activist groups.) They intentionally buried the findings & report only summaries so they could spin the results the way they wanted instead of the truth.
Honesetly, I don't know if any of this is factual, but some of the things you stated here aren't true.
"Rejection of conventional gender roles...negative...psychological health." This is false which makes me think the rest of this is as well. Being solely exposed to traditional gender roles tends to be more damaging to children. It limits their growth.
Kids usually grow up best when they have two parents in the home that are in a stable, healthy relationship.
I have a mother and she raised me so why am i not overly feminine? hmmm? in fact i'm no where near it. Kids pay no mind to there parents. if anything they strive to be the opposite. I always did. so in saying that then why am i straight? I should be gay. even if a boy grew up to be more effeminate how would that effect you or your life in any way
The point is that numerous studies have shown that kids are better off overall when raised by a loving father & mother. Not just 2 parents but a man & woman.
The theory of a gay gene and "being born gay" is losing acceptance and virtually every recent study is pointing to the fact homosexuality is learned.
I made this video to show how homosexual activists falsely report the findings of the studies, even their own studies, because the TRUTH is diametrically opposed to their agenda.
Homophobic studies correct? What agenda? That piece of paper written out by a gay hating nazi that says they want to overthrow the pedophilia laws? Try again! Use real info. what studies by the way? Link?
The video is about USC doing a re-examination of the findings of 21 previous studies.
MOST of research (the studies they took a closer look at) was paid for by PRO-Homosexual Groups and Activists!
The individual published summaries say gay parents are okay, but the actual findings showed that kids did better overall when they were raised by a mom & dad.
When the truth is IN YOUR FACE you try to mislead people with your comments.
Lol Ok howcome i don't see any of these pro homosexual activists. Your gonna need to produce some more proof then someone online said yata yata yata. I could understand the child growing up miserable because they were teased a lot for being homosexual but if it wasn't for retard homo haters like you that wouldn't be an issue. what does it matter if a couple of boys grow up to be effeminate? Are you saying boys with straight parents never grew up to be effeminate?
My husband and I have lots of homosexual neighbors, friends and relatives. So do our kids. We love them and they love us. We get along fine, so dont insinuate that I hate my friends.
You assume that because I agree with this video that I'm some sort of homophobe, but that's just not true.
Cut out the name calling and bullying and perhaps someone might listen to your idiotic rants.
You said ...okay how come I dont see any of these pro homosexual activists.
I need to produce proof?
Thats just silly. Are you trying to say there is no such thing as a pro homosexual group or activist?
Oh yea nobody funds research for decades trying to prove there is a gay gene to no avail.
And nobody sweeps their findings under the rug when the data says homosexuality is a learned behavior, just because their funding comes from, oh wait I can't say that, they dont exist!
the idea that kids with homosexual parents are more likely to make the choice to "be homosexual themselves" is absolutely hysterical. But then again..who wouldn't want to live the carefree life of a homosexual...especially in a world full of tolerant accepting people like you k10star...HAHA who knew the world was full of such unintelligent people
"These studies show kids of homosexual parents to be between 4 & 10 TIMES more likely to develop same-sex preferences"
Oh really? Could it be that some of the adopted children who were gay to begin with are simply more likely to come out knowing that their gay parents won't reject them?
You see how sloppy this "research" is when the folks conducting it have already reached their own conclusions beforehand.
Grow up and read more than propaganda. The research was conducted by the APA & other PRO homosexual activist groups, not one but dozens of studies. They just failed to report the details of their own findings, because they showed this HUGE difference between kids of gay parents & straight parents. They said it was not important because they don't feel it makes a difference. The research is there. The findings are real & published for anyone to read if they want to dig deeper than the headlines!
This is absolute crap...im sure that kids of gay parents do grow up differently. Must be awful to grow up open minded and tolerant of other people and to not be afraid to express yourself or be who you really are..those poor children...i'd rather have 10 gay parents then be your child...
OH NOT SOYou see these studies (a bunch of them) were funded by pro homosexual activist groups, the government, the APA & similar organizations. Their purpose was to show that kids raised by homosexuals were not harmed. The SUMMARY findings are widely published by these same pro homosexuals. The problem is the FACTS show that kids are better off raised by a loving father & mother. They just omitted these findings from their summary. It's funny how its okay for gay activists to twist the facts!
The American Academy of Pediatrics' Committee on Psychosocial Aspects of Child and Family Health issued a report. It found no meaningful differences between children raised by gay parents and those raised by heterosexual parents. These prop h8 people need to stop!
The AAP & others ALL published these findings! BUT I dare you to READ the data NOT the sterilized summary. What they report as No Meaningful Difference & what MOST parents say is No Meaningful Difference is VERY DIFFERENT!
IE: These studies show kids of homosexual parents to be between 4 & 10 TIMES more likely to develop same-sex preferences & be significantly more sexually promiscuous. In a world of STDs like HIV, HSV, HPV & AIDS.
I think thats a very meaningful difference, dont you?
Homosexual activists understand the power of words.
Please visit my channel to watch a one-minute video clip in which popular atheist author Richard Dawkins admits that homosexual activists "hijacked the word 'gay'".
The word "homosexual" is more appropriate and accurate because it, unlike the word "gay", actually describes the behavior/attraction/relationship being discussed.
The word "gay" helps homosexual activists push their agenda.

I watched this in the hopes that i would find some decent information on the effects of LGBT parenting on children, but while watching it I realized that A LOT of this information is taken out of context. It would be nice if you provided the source where you got this info. It's so hard finding relevant information! And, btw, research has shown that children reared by LGBT parents are mentally and socially stable, more so then that of a home with opposite gender parents that drink or smoke.

I'm sure being adopted by gay parents probably does affect a kid, possibly negatively in comparison to being adopted by straight parents.

Every family is different and every child will face a different struggle because of it. Married, remarried, single or divorced. Low-income, high-income, in between jobs or workaholic. Religious, ethnic, conservative or progressive. Controlling, carefree, open or reserved. There is no image of a perfect family but there is an ideal: loving, nurturing, safe, happy and healthy. As long as children grow up understanding that their parents love them unconditionally what does gender matter?

First of all, it's from 2001, and there's more recent research from APA and AACAP among others, showing that this isn't true, and also that lesbians' and gays' parenting skills have been proven superior to heterosexuals'.
Furthermore, the author of this report said "many of the differences are those that any democratic society should welcome.".
And lastly, search for Judith Stacey (the author) + children here on YouTube and listen to what she have to say. Thanks :)

Sorry to continue, but I just found it funny that you chose to use "...sons of lesbians behave in less traditionally masculine ways." That sentence begins with "When it comes to aggressiveness". In other words, sons of lesbians are less violent. Now is that really bad?
And the daughters... It sounds like you don't like gender equality. One of the findings is that the daughters of lesbians aspire for careers as lawyers, doctors or astronauts more than those of heterosexual mothers.

I did not mean to suggest that adopted kids struggle with parentification. That was misspeaking.
I meant to suggest that studies examining the phenomenon of parentification come to conclusions that suggest there is reason to be concerned that the children of gays are parentified (that is, that the normal roles of responsibility and boundaries are inverted, so that these children are responsible for their parents' well being instead of vice versa).
vicorii 1 year ago
Is there any "proof" that children raised by gay couples are not affected by the experience, that does not derive directly from the population of children who were raised specifically TO BE EVIDENCE of this?
I'm concerned because studies that are not linked to political controversies come to different conclusions - re: the harm done by motherlessness, fatherlessness, whether adopted kids struggle with grief, identity issues, parentification, etc.
So the big discrepency is like a red flag to me

It is a proven fact that is not the gender but the quality of the parents that matters. In a study done it showed that 0% of children of lesbian parents reported abuse opposed to 24% of kids with hetero parents. Being gay harms no one. All that "info" you provided was pure bullshit.

"A significantly greater proportion of children had engaged in a same sex relationship." - Again, so what? And again I'm not convinced this is true, but if it is then it's probably because the children are more open minded and realise that they are allowed to love someone of the same sex as well as opposite sex.

@jans4555 "How does the gender of parents matter"?
If gender is irrelevant, why don't gays just marry the person they actually make a baby with, instead of going to so much fuss to try to prove that it's somehow harmless to "give" the child to a stepfather, instead of just recognizing, honoring, and respecting the child's relationship with his real mother.
That gender is not interchangeable is fundamental to the debate.
vicorii 1 year ago
@vicorii - because they love someone of the same gender. Because that is what is normal for gay people. Being gay is not a choice. It is a variation in nature. We've all seen what happens in heterosexual couples where the couple feels pressured to get married due to a pregnancy. Children deserve to be wanted and have parents who love each other. Using your logic, why should people be allowed to adopt? Gender is not interchangeable? What does that even mean?
MomSpeaksOut 1 year ago
@MomSpeaksOut A divorced man may stop loving his wife, but that does not give him the right to cut her off from the children and "give" the children to someone else.
The courts have already decided this.
Because children have a LEGAL RIGHT and a BASIC HUMAN RIGHT to have a relationship with both parents.
Adoption is supposed to be a response to a crisis. It is NOT HARMLESS. It is merely less harmless than the alternative.
Children are not for selling. Trafficking is a crime.

Full article at Journal of Marriage And Family Timothy Biblarz of the USC:
"The bottom line is that the science shows that children raised by two same-gender parents do as well on average as children raised by two different-gender parents. This is obviously inconsistent with the widespread claim that children must be raised by a mother and a father to do well."

During the training he was taught that people who decide they are gay all have a common list of things or circumstances in their past that seems to lead to their same-sex attraction. Before the training, and his counseling homosexuals he thought they were born that way, but now hes 99.9% sure its a learned behavior.

I'm not sure if you yourself have read any of these, but these studies to not support your conclusions whatsoever. For example, in the Golombok et al. study it was concluded that "rearing in a lesbian household per se did not lead to atypical psychosexual development or constitute a psychiatric risk factor."
poolerboy0077 1 year ago
@poolerboy0077 Its amazing is how many researchers are trying to conceal these findings. Even the APA is backing down on the concept of a gay gene after looking for proof for over 20 years. There are at least 9 NEW studies funded by pro-homosexual groups whose findings show that children raised by homosexual couples are 4 to 10 times more likely to be non-heterosexual. Go to drtraycehansen com

Conceal? They're made available to the public.
Moreover, the argument about a gay gene is a fundamental misunderstanding about genetics. Homosexuality has been demonstrated to be genetic, but this is not because there has been a "gay gene" found since that isn't how genes normally work just as you don't have one "diabetes gene" to get diabetes genetically. This isn't "pro-homosexual" but rather a recognition of reality.

@poolerboy0077 I was under the impression that Type 2 diabetes appears to be caused by lifestyle. Most research I have seen indicates that poor diet and lack to exercise brings on the disease, not obesity or genetics as is was once theorized. Doctors seldom rely on the correlation of common cause statistics, but it seems to be the case with diabetes and many feel its the same with homosexuality.
k10star 1 year ago
Type 2 is a combination of genetics and poor diet. Think of it like the genetics of alcoholism where the trigger is alcohol. You don't have to take my word for it as you can visit the American Diabetics Association (they write, for example, that Type 2 "has a stronger genetic basis than Type 1").
As with the main topic at hand, you can also verify the genetic basis on homosexuality by visiting the NIH's PubMed and reading the follow study: "A genomewide scan of male sexual orientation."

Moreover, where you quote that "lesbian mothers have a feminizing effect on their sons..." is not part of a study but rather a (disingenuous) commentary on an earlier study cited by Tasker and Golomok (1997), about girls raised by lesbians being more sexually adventurous and less chaste (and boys raised by lesbians being more chaste and less sexually adventurous, which you left out).
poolerboy0077 1 year ago
It seems to be you haven't really read any of these studies and are simply regurgitating quotes found from some anti-homosexual website (perhaps NARTH). Finally, I should note that your position on the effects of same-sex child rearing is irrelevant to the issue of marriage. This issue would be pertinent if you were bringing up such topics in a discussion about same-sex adoption, but there's no *necessary* component of children to the definition of marriage.

@k10star So what elements in the past make someone gay ? And how does one get training in working with homosexuality i have done many courses and yes there are areas in sociology that go into homosexuality but special training ? all the gay people i know and studied come from varying backgrounds and have no comparisons to be made so i am rather interested in these "circumstances" that lead to same sex attraction.
lesliemarf 1 year ago
@lesliemarf I dont know the elements I just know they exist. My friend had patients that were trying to overcome same-sex attraction for religious reasons. After attending some classes on same gender attraction, he found these patients suddenly felt like he was a mind reader. I have not asked him for a list, and I dont have the time or money t spend hundreds of hours studying it, but he says the commonalities are amazing.

Does Gay Parenting Affect Children Differently?
yes it does if your a child raised by a homosexual couple then there is a high chance that you will be picked on.
and if your the child raised by a hetrosexual couple there is a high chance that they will be doing the bullying to the child raised by the homosexual couple

well how come i turned out gay when i had both a mother and father as my parents, in a perfectly stable 2.5 children and a dog setting. i never even encountered a gay person until after i knew i was gay. where's the study on why heterosexual people are heterosexual is it because their parents are? and actually most studies say that the child is no more likely to turn out gay but are more likely to experiment (due to no societal restrictions) ,the outcome is still the same.

After several decades of trying to find a gay gene most of todays research is proving that homosexuality is learned through a variety of social interactions. You dont have to be exposed to homosexuals to have the life experiences needed to decide you are gay. Please cite your sources as virtually ALL published studies show children raised by gay parents are more likely to choose a gay or bi lifestyle. Since many are paid for by gay activists they try to hide this fact but the truth is there!

I know a wonderful woman whose husband, after years of marriage, became emotionally unstable and held a gun to her child's head... I believe that is an acceptable reason to ask for a divorce.

You're arguments are pretty stupid KStar. Straight kids brought up in straight families are as sexual as gays. Kids can be well-adjusted or not, no matter who raises them.
Divorce is a much bigger problem, why not work on that little miss protect marriage?
Obviously you're more concerned with denying equal rights to all than you are about protecting marriage. So sad.

Straight kids brought up in straight families are as sexual as gays. Are you trying to say that kids from straight families are as promiscuous as kids from gay families? Sorry, dozens of studies have proven that statement is false.
Additionally, after 20+ years of research there is no evidence to date that homosexuality is genetic.
If activists would quit trying to destroy our country's moral values and allow traditional family values to be taught, divorce rates would fall dramatically.

Oh poor Kstar, you must live in a bubble. If you believe kids raised by heteros are less promiscuous than kids raised by homos, you obviously don't pay attention to the world around you. Take off the blinders dear.

If people would be truly caring and respectful of each other instead of demeaning and selfish divorce would vanish. When my wife and I married 27 years ago we agreed that divorce would never be an option. We have had trials that typically end in divorce, but because we have been true and faithful to our marriage covenants we are more in love today than we were on our honeymoon. Why would I allow bigoted, hate filled gay activists to try and take that from my family without putting up a fight?
k10star 2 years ago
The only reason gays are fighting as hard as they are is because people like you deny them their equal rights and respect. I doubt you have gay friends with the views you hold. People are born gay they do not choose gay. Bisexuals may make choices, but gay is gay and straight is straight.
You talk about your marriage covenants as sacred but you completely deny these covenants to gays wanting to marry their loved ones. You are hypocritical and selfish. Sorry for you.
drgincali 2 years ago
After 2+ decades of research there is ZERO evidence that gays are born gay, but lots of evidence that the lifestyle is learned. Let homosexuals have the same rights & responsibilities as heterosexuals as long as they don't try to call it marriage. I have no problem with my friends choosing a gay lifestyle. I dont have to agree with their choice to tolerate it & still be their friends, but they are also tolerant of my beliefs. Thats why some, but not all of my gay friends voted YES on prop 8.

I believe in Tolerance. By definition tolerance implies difference. Just because Coke and Pepsi are both cola flavored soft drinks doesnt mean Coke lovers who like the name Pepsi can pass a law requiring everyone to call Coke Pepsi. Marriage has always been a union between man and woman. Let gay couples create their own word for their union; dont try to change the definition of a word thats been used for centuries with the same meaning as a word thats been used for thousands of years.

You can start by looking at this video. When I posted it the studies cited were available through a link at the USC website. I know that since that time there are even more studies and the latest research shows children of gay parents are even more likely to be sexually active at young ages and more likely to choose a gay or bi-sexual lifestyle than their counterparts raised by a loving mother & father. Most were funded homosexual activist groups so dont read the summary, read the fine print!
k10star 2 years ago
Yes, children raised by gay parents will grow differently, because no one is never a copy of the other. Difference is normal. I don't understand the matter. And about masculinizing girls and feminizing boys, you could see the same phenomenum in straight families. Men and Women do not have particular tasks in a family anymore, the sexs come closer the one to the other. That's what we call equallity. To conclude, ther's absolutely no problem.

Im just pointing out that homosexuality is learned.
You see there is a problem when people claim they are born homosexual, but there is zero science to back up that idea.
Yet there is a lot of research showing that homosexuality is a learned behavior.
I have a friend who is a counselor & has helped gay patients recognize how they learned their lifestyle.
They are no longer gay or even bi. They simply don't have same gender attraction anymore.
k10star 2 years ago
Learned... Not sure. I'm part of the ones who claim homosexuality is not a choice. What you can see in classes, what may be taught in schools, is just tolerance. Children are taught to respect and consider homosexuality as something normal, such as the skin's color. I think you worry and think too much. We homosexuals claim we didn't choose to be homosexuals. You are who you are. That meens you are gay or not.

Anyway I desagree with you when you say it's a learned behaviour. My opinion is that it is like a taste, some prefer vanilla and others chocolate, that kind of stuff.
Ikiroh09 2 years ago
Your English is great!
I have friends & acquaintances who thought they were born homosexual but chose to fight their feelings so they could fit in.
After receiving professional counseling they realized when and how they learned to be gay.
Once that was clear in their minds overcoming same gender attractions was easy, especially when they finally met Mr. or Mrs. Right.
They thought they preferred chocolate but once they understood why, they realized they actually loved vanilla.
k10star 2 years ago
You say professional counseling can make a person overcome same sex attraction. Sure...if you are told you are broken and in need to be fixed you will be shamed into doing anything to avoid doing something which makes you happy. If one however is bi and not actually homosexual, it would not be a problem to find a person of the opposite sex.
SmileNow2 2 years ago
I understand that most professional counseling does NOT work because the counselors dont understand the real problem. My friend takes a different approach and helps the person identify how and why they developed same-gender attraction. He says hes often accused of being a mind reader because the reasons are usually so similar to others hes counseled. Once they understand and deal with the issues they find they are no longer gay or bi, but straight only. He's had great success with this.
k10star 2 years ago
I'm not convinced, if homosexuality was so easy to leave, there wwould be no reason there remained homosexuals, because of discriminations, impossibility to have a child, this kind of stuff. I have to say, I feel a bit sad when I see people wanting to change homosexuals. Gays are a peaceful population, all they want is the equality in rights and to live a nice life the way straight people do, though they can't have children.
Ikiroh09 2 years ago
I have homosexual friends & family and you are right. They are peaceful. Several have become straight not bi and it was hard at first. They say being gay gave them a false sense of happiness but they didnt realize it was false at the time.
I also know several activists who are not peaceful. They are not friends but acquaintances. They are on the attack. They are bigoted and have an aggressive agenda. They openly admit their goal is to take away my freedom and silence my Christian beliefs.

Why not go after all the divorced couples which is a greater sin than homosexuality in the bible. Children don't grow up with both parents in a divorced household so your argument against gay families is bunk. I don't understand why there's so much hate out there.

When you are advising people to vote against gay marriage, you are saying that the children of gay parents don't matter. If one parent dies, the other parent may loose custody of the child they helped raise for years because without being "married" the state does not see the partner of the biological parent as familly. How would you feel if someone were to take away the child you helped raise for years?

"Rejection of conventional gender roles...negative...psychological health." This is false which makes me think the rest of this is as well. Being solely exposed to traditional gender roles tends to be more damaging to children. It limits their growth.
Kids usually grow up best when they have two parents in the home that are in a stable, healthy relationship.

The AAP & others ALL published these findings! BUT I dare you to READ the data NOT the sterilized summary. What they report as No Meaningful Difference & what MOST parents say is No Meaningful Difference is VERY DIFFERENT!
IE: These studies show kids of homosexual parents to be between 4 & 10 TIMES more likely to develop same-sex preferences & be significantly more sexually promiscuous. In a world of STDs like HIV, HSV, HPV & AIDS.
I think thats a very meaningful difference, dont you?
