  • you are an amazing woman! you have raised wonderful children, and i truly wish your family all of the best :)

  • I can not even begin to tell you how much I respect you for your strength and willpower, handling multiples sclerosis and raising two incredible children is awsome.

    Cheers to you, your partner and both of your children.

    Lots of love from Europe

  • Your family is nothing like my family, if they were, I wouldn't have anything to write about! I too am a daughter of Yashua, and agree with the other one from last week. Many Blessings!!!

  • an amazing family. not to mention great parenting. :) x

  • YES you are no different than straight couples. then please... EXPLAIN TOMMY LOBEL

  • 1:53 - Hear that one, people who argue that gay marriage is a sin? Yeah. That's what I thought.

  • Homosexual activists understand the power of words.

    Please visit my channel to watch a one-minute video clip in which famous atheist 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 don't like the "our family is not so different from your family" argument. It forecloses the possibility of acknowledging the extent to which gay families can be better than straight ones.

  • Was she the butch or the bitch?

  • This is a brilliant and remarkable woman and physician. Her TED talk about her struggle with MS and the way she overcame it using nutrition is excellent. She is also the author of the book MINDING MY MITOCHONDRIA.

  • Jesus is a HEALER, and he will cure MS and any other disease if your simply confess and repent of your sins. Accept His sacrifice on the cross. THERE IS HOPE for anyone caught up in the homosexual lifestyle, many are coming out. There are countless testimonies of YouTube and in fact around the world. Our eternal soul means so much more than living life our own way, according to our intellect. GOD IS REAL. God bless.

  • @DaughterOfYashua You're a damned liar, and a fool. You spout this nonsense like it's fact...it's not. Keep believing in your silly myths though, for all the good it will do you.

  • @Sinsemilla4u .. youre a close minded fuck.. have fun in hell.

  • @vrutherford4 I will! Thanks!

  • @DaughterOfYashua God can bless my left ass cheek. He's as real as unicorns and the sasquatch.

  • @DaughterOfYashua

    I suppose you prove yourself wrong, since she was healed and is openly gay.

  • @DaughterOfYashua "Our eternal soul means so much more than living life our own way". So what your saying is that Jesus doesnt want us to live like we want to live it in other words A GOOD LIFE? Does that really give a good impression on Jesus, if he wants us to live a bad life just to have a eternal soul ill gladly pass from that

  • @DaughterOfYashua Yes: God IS real. You're the myth. Evil, hateful, and you will be told by Jesus Christ, "Depart from me: I never knew you."

  • @annzup57 You have NO AUTHORITY whatsoever to speak on what Jesus Christ will say to me, you speak under the utterance of your father the devil. Those who are TRULY of Jesus Christ will speak TRUTH according to HIS WORD. Jesus Christ and His Word are one, and it will never pass away!!! The bible is VERY CLEAR on what God thinks of homosexuality. What bible are you reading? Hmmm

  • @DaughterOfYashua Actually, the Bible is VERY VAGUE on what God thinks of homosexuality. What Bible are you reading? Leviticus doesn't even say that homosexuality is an abomination. It says a man ( a heterosexual man ), who also lies with a woman, who lies with another man ( a heterosexual man) is committing an abomination. Denying your sexuality is an abomination. Being with someone who cannot reciprocate feelings that you don't have is an abomination. Being untrue is against God's will.

  • Because of the fall of morality in our present world, paedophiles are now campaigning for equal rights. Opening the door for homosexuality allowed this; they too claim their perversion is simply a sexual orientation. What next I ask, man and dog? Oh wait, this is already happening!!! EVEN SO, COME LORD JESUS. The good news is that Jesus Christ will soon return to catch his people away. Those of you that don't know Him, SEEK HIM NOW before it is too late. St John 3:16.

  • 1 Cor 3:19 "For the wisdom of this world is foolishness with God. For it is written, He takes the wise in their own craftiness." No matter what the world say, homosexuality will always be an abomination unto God. The truth is that He loves us so much that He doesn't want us to perish for eternity, THERE IS A WAY OUT- Jesus Christ. Marriage according to the Most High God is a union between a man and a woman, anything else is an insult to the Creator.

  • I only had one mom...if I could go back, I'd have two, like my lucky nephew

  • It's sad that Mrs. Whals has to make a video pleading her case for Gay marriage and that she does it like she's from another planet trying to reason and teach earthlings about something so basic as love between two consenting adults.I hope YouTube will be around in my elderly years so I can look back at this video and smile at all the silliness. People don't like homosexual promiscuous sex but won't let us marry..

  • Lady you are gross.

  • Hear, hear.

  • People can never accept, they always have to judge. Unfortunately it's real life and it sucks. I find absolutely nothing wrong with gay marriage... What goes on in people's mind when they see it as disgusting or not normal? It's pure love for each other and it's beautiful. Get over what you want it to be. it is you, not them.

  • I can not believe the world is being so ignorant. Why does it matter who love who or who has sex with who... no one is trying as hard to stop people from having sex with animals... or children for that matter. But no the sight is on homosexuality yet society is ok to embrace trans marriage because they made the decision to conform to your physical preferences so they could get married. Who are any of you to judge anyone. I love my girl friend and when we can get married I plan to.

  • Your son is truly a gifted young man I myself am heterosexual but i still think that what he stands for is great and so should everyone its jus disgusting that people are against gay marriage

  • lol fidelity .... wut?

  • <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 love this

  • I hope this isn't taken wrong but looking at her mannerisms and style of speech I am reminded very much of Carl Sagan. Great message here and great video!

  • shes a smart woman, vote yes for gay marriage!!

  • Rel(WOG) = 1/P(R*E*Hu*Ha)²

    The reliance on God's word is inversely proportional to the power of reason, empathy, humility and humanity. Squared.

    (Expressed in imbeciles)

  • @b33cux The dogmatic dissing of those who rely on God's word is directly proportional to the distance between the dissers and the creator. To the third power. Affecting their ability to see but not to talk.

  • @b33cux Aha! A sneer! That makes a great argument! The whole thing is settled now....

  • My mom is in a lesbian relationship of three years and I live with them both. In my opinion, we are very normal as well. There is absolutely nothing wrong with two people of the same gender falling in love. I don't get why it is such a big deal when it doesn't effect anyone's life negatively.

  • @loveSAVEtheEMPTY I am speaking for myself. But if I were the only person who feels the way I do, I guess there wouldn't be much of a controversy now, would there?

  • @truthtuube

    And if progress and enlightenment weren't the driving force—the force that's winning, even if slowly—I guess people like you wouldn't be putting up such a big stink, would you?

  • @truthtuube

    are you happy?

  • @schwimandponies What's not to be happy about? Your problem isn't my problem, which doesn't mean I don't see your problem and have an opinion about it.

  • @truthtuube

    whats my problem? im straight.

    but why is being gay a problem? i think the problem here is within you and accepting them. why do they have to conform to your narrow mindedness?

  • @schwimandponies You've just confirmed that being gay is a problem by assuming "your problem", which I alluded to above, was being gay. I didn't say that. I was being quite generic. I was merely answering your question about the state of my own happiness and the fact that my happiness isn't affected by any problems you may have. You are the one who immediately jumped to defining "your problem" as gayness, by rushing to assure me that you were straight. See the irony?

  • @truthtuube

    yes. i did jump to conclude the definition of 'the problem' however it is clearly implied that you were speaking about sexual orientation saying- "which doesn't mean I don't see your problem and have an opinion about it". This isn't the issue however. i simply asked about your happiness because i felt like you were afraid or angry about gay people to confirm my beliefs. why do you have such strong, nazi like view of these people? You seem educated and better than that.

  • @schwimandponies I did not "clearly Imply" any such thing. Go back to your initial comment/question: "Are you happy?" Isn't that a pretty wide-open to interpretation, out-of-the-blue question? It shouts all sorts of implications but I didn't go with any of them, I just asked what's not to be happy about?

    It is super knee-jerk for anyone who doesn't approve of gay sex to be labelled a hater and an angry, repressed nazi. I assert my right to love people and hate behaviors.

  • @truthtuube

    yes that is your right... but it is also the right of these parents to 'love people', any person they wish, male or female. i am failing to understand why you would want them to be identified as homosexual and why loving another person of the same sex is a wrong thing in your view. please explain. do you not agree however that the content of your comment in saying gay people should wear 'identifying badges' relates very well to the happenings of the 1940s?

  • @schwimandponies Oh..."that" comment; the one that got removed :) Yes, that comment was mostly tongue-in-cheek and I won't back it with any real support other than to say that in situations where sexuality is "sensitive"- for instance, in school showers and such, I don't consider it proper for gays to be mixed in anonymously.

    As to your other question, "love" is not sex, except in the minds of ignorant people. It is impossible to "make love". IMO, people are free to "love" whoever. Sex...no.

  • @truthtuube

    aaahhh... so your problem lies in the act of gay sex, not in the love they may have. i don't necessarily agree with it either, but i also don't condemn those who practice it. They have the right to freedom and have sex with whomever they wish; which may not necessarily make it right but how can you condemn them for practicing gayness if they were born gay? i am sure that many gays would much prefer being straight because of the controversy surrounding the issue.

  • @truthtuube Either you're an excellent troll or you're gravely ignorant.

  • @clhs1 Do I have to choose one or can I answer all of the above?

  • In my experience most lesbians are radicalized man/male haters, either this one isn't, or this is all part of a larger plan.

  • @tripleleo How about this simpler explanation: She isn't a lesbian, she's a GOOD FUCKING PERSON.

  • Parent- verb(used with object): to act as parent of.... To parent children with both love and discipline..

    Just wondering where in that definition it says it has to be a man and a woman instead of 2 women or 2 men?

  • :)

  • I like that MAN VOICE. James Earl Jones would be proud! She got married in a church in front of a bunch of a homosexuals! Her girlfriend is much younger. GRANDMA had some money and bought herself a nice young "abused" wife.

    HA HA HA

  • @MultiShadow1969 If a man does not have an outlet for the pain he feels over the divorce then yes it is a bad thing. Children pick up on that and they begin blaming themselves. Best thing to do? Go to therapy with your kid and your ex, with a mediator there to monitor things get it out. When u don't talk, when u don't express it, kids learn to do the samething and it can crush you emotionally. Men just ignore it. Kids can't. Truthfully, same for women too but they're more likely to do therapy.

  • @iopenedpandorasbox... What makes you think that women dont need an outlet for the pain from the divorce as well, and what makes you think that men are unstable enough not to be able to handle it? If your mother did not Münchausen syndrome, and was not unstable or immature, wouldnt you have wanted her in your life as much as your father? It takes two people to create a child and raise a child. Not that it isnt possible to be raised with 1, but both parents deserve equal rights.

  • @MultiShadow1969 I said that women need that outlet as well. However due to social stigma, and this is where the real tragedy lies, women have an easier time going to therapy for that outlet for that pain of divorce than men. Why? Because men aren't supposed to need help or they're 'weak'. It's a bs stigma, but unfortunately it's one that's still embedded in society. You hear that a woman's seeing a therapist, it's shrugged off, most people hear a guy's seeing a shrink, 'Geez, is he a criminal?'

  • @iopenedpandorasbox .. I have never heard of a stigma for a man seeking therapy. It is acceptable in this country for a man to see a psychiatrist, counselor, or a therapist. And not all divorce couples need counseling or therapy, however the children often do. What my original comment was about, 2 months ago, is that in a situation where no one is unstable, it is often the woman who end up with the child, even tho the man mast me financially independent, and more mentally physically secure.

  • @MultiShadow1969 and that is a bs situation. In the US, Cali, esp that I'm aware of, the state does favor the mother, and why I honestly don't know. I do know of the divorce and child custody laws in Cali on an elementary level due to having cousins there. I could tell a few horror stories from that too. In that situation, you're right, it's unfair to give primary care to one parent over another based on gender alone. It should always be stability & the child's best interest.

  • @MultiShadow1969 found one website ran by such an child (now adult). familieslikemine(dot)com

  • you're family is awesome. "These two women chose to love them and care for him, and they did a fucking great job." -askdjak

    The US should grant equal rights for marriages of same sex individuals in a committed relationship

  • Average? Nah, most average families don't involve innocent children being raised by sexual deviants.

  • @IDawgedYou not even gonna insult you by calling you any names, just want to let you that you should learn to be more accepting and work on understanding other perspectives. Think outside your box and don't insult others because of the way they choose to live their life, they aren't hurting anyone. Go listen to her sons speech, that "innocent" child is doing great.

  • You raised a damn good son.

  • It's amazing how in 2011 people still have to go through explaining these things and justify their choices. I admire your strength!

  • Do you teach the importance of having a child's father involved in their child's life?

    Studies of people who end up in prision indicate that it is pretty important.

  • @Stan597, LOL! Nice try, but yet another irrational comment on your part.

  • @MattFrame Since Zach said he is straight, were will he learn what a good relationship between a man and a woman is? Are you teaching him Matt?

  • @Stan597, why yes, Stan, yes I am.

    Don't worry about Zack. He's more of a stable, rational, well-adjusted heterosexual than you'll ever be.

  • @MattFrame Sorry, this is exactly what disturbs me. Again and again, we learn that the highest proof of the excellence of lesbian mothers is that they raise sons who are ... not gay. Zach himself, as you confirm so rapturously, is a "stable, rational, well-adjusted heterosexual man". The clear implication is that the worst possible thing to be is an unstable, irrational, maladjusted GAY man - in your ethical universe, the lowest of the low. Indeed, as you say, no need to worry about Zach!

  • @jarabaa, sorry, but you are either hallucinating or trolling, neither of which compel me to take your irrational harangue seriously. The point is, there's nothing wrong or immoral about being gay, any more than there is about being black, left-handed, green-eyed, or tall.

  • @Stan597 My heterosexual parents, and the parents of many of my friends did not have "good" relationships. Not even in the slightest. I have heard of abuse to cheating to this and that- you name it.

    So to say that only a heterosexual couple is able to portray a "good" relationship between a man and a woman is bogus and also does not apply if the child is homosexual themselves.

  • @Stan597 You are mis-reading information b/c this doesn't apply here! It's only if the man ABANDONED the child.

    Has nothing to do with the SAME gender (2 females) in the household. It has to do with psychological problems relating to abandonment from someone (man, woman, w/e) that SHOULD have been taking care of them in their life, but blatantly chose not to- thus creates problems like acting out, & depression.

    Srsly don't post anything if you don't understand what you're saying/what you read.

  • @askdjak And you can prove this how? Children being raised by gay couples is a recent thing. Studies show children with a mother and a father have the best chance, Could Zach wonder about his father. Maybe dad would be proud, maybe dad would have taught him things about life his mothers did not. His mothers made that decision for him. Do you think Zach would mention it and hurt mom's feelings? Do you think maybe he feels he must take up this fight for them? Maybe that's why he is here.

  • @Stan597 The whole reason Zach is standing up there on that pedestal is because he is trying to show that he is proof that a child can be raised by same-sex couples and still function normally in society... that was his whole point. He's doing quite well for himself .

    And it's true that these kids could feel inadequate, but this is true with heterosexual couples as well. But to say that this is a circumstance strictly isolated to same-sex couples only is a fallacy by an appeal to probability.

  • @askdjak Zach can "function normally", you write. Meaning: he's not gay. He is a great champion of lesbian mothers, but Zach clearly has no interest in the rights of gay men to marry or raise children. For lesbian and heterosexual families alike, it seems, a "normal" heterosexual son is the measure of success. Meanwhile, all over America, alarming numbers of young gay men Zach's age commit or attempt suicide - because they learn (not least on Youtube) that they are failures, sinners, perverts.

  • @jarabaa When did Zach say that he does not have any interest in the rights of gay men or women to raise children? He didn't. If he did, he wouldn't be speaking as an advocate for that subject.

    Any "normal" child in any family (gay or straight parents) is a measure of ANY families success.

    Correct me if I'm wrong, but it seems safe to assume that you believe homosexuality is a choice. Okay. If homosexuality is a choice... why not have these "failures, sinners, perverts" choose NOT to be gay?

  • @jarabaa most of your comment seems to be based on personal opinion rather than actual REAL evidence that you have so graciously inserted...where are these studies? What I'm saying is that YOUR opinion doesn't apply to logic, not to factual evidence or studies, only by an emotionally driven source brought on by religion. Hence the words "failures, sinners, perverts"...sounds like someone is passing judgement... which isn't your place, as you are well aware of, according to your religion.

  • @Stan597 You can also use this for kids who have been abandoned by their fathers, which is a bad case of parenting mishaps... wondering "Maybe dad would've be proud"

    Have you thought of single mothers raising kids on their own??

    Gender does not dictate whether or not a person can be "adequate" enough as a parent. Gender does not qualify one man and one woman to be a better parent over those of the same sex.

    These two women chose to love them and care for him, and they did a fucking great job.

  • @askdjak If gender does not qualify or dictate whether or not a person is adequate enough as a parent, how come 98% of women end up living with the children after a divorce?

  • @MultiShadow1969 My Dad was awarded primary custody of me in 1989, back when mostly mothers were awareded primary custody. Why? Munchausen's by proxy. My mother's guilty of it. She's also very hateful towards anyone different than her, emotionally immature, and unstable. Dad however was very tolerant, mature, and stable. That's why he was given custody of me. It isn't gender that courts look at, it's maturity & stability. Women generally mature faster than men and are more emotionally strong.

  • @iopenedpandorasbox.. women are more mature and emotionally strong then men.. if that isnt sexist I dont know what is. You are one of the 2% that had a father awarded custody because your mother had a disorder.. congratulations?

  • @MultiShadow1969 Then blame science, not me. Science has proven that girls do mature faster than men, there's even documented phenomenon of men who never mature, dubbed 'peter pan syndrome', and note I said 'generally' not 'always'. My mother never matured. Male or female, I'm just glad I had a parent who was mature enough to be up to the task of raising a child. As for strength, phys. strength only takes you so far. You can still get crushed emotionally if you bottle things, men tend to.

  • @iopenedpandorasbox.... Science says that girls reach maturity faster, but once male and female are mature, they are the same. "Peter pan syndrome" ..lol. Is this suppose to make me feel that most fathers are not capable of raising their child? Once again.. you assume that they bottle things up until they get crushed emotionally. Just because a man does not wear his emotions on his sleeve, does not mean that he can not handle the responsibilities that come with life, such as raising a child.

  • @MultiShadow1969 Again, I repeat: "When it comes to more final child custody rulings, the law in *** does not favor equal time for both parents. Many judges feel that one parent is usually more appropriate for raising the child than the other based on employment, living conditions, mental conditions and overall general health. This decision is always based on the best interests of the child. "

    BTW that involves joint custody, not sole custody. Sole custody is reserved for abusive situations.

  • @MultiShadow1969 further more in regards to the laws where I live re: child custody: "When it comes to more final child custody rulings, the law in ***** does not favor equal time for both parents. Many judges feel that one parent is usually more appropriate for raising the child than the other based on employment, living conditions, mental conditions and overall general health. This decision is always based on the best interests of the child. "

    Bottom line: non-sexist ruling for best parent.

  • @iopenedpandorasbox.. and that doesnt tell you that something wrong? That the law doesnt allow equal time for equal parents? The decision is always "suppose" to be given to the parent with the most financial and mental stability. In many circumstances the man may make more money, and be a more stable parents, but often the child is given to the mother, so that the man may keep working and paying her with having little time left over for being involved in his child's life.

  • @MultiShadow1969 Not where I am. I know just as many single fathers with primary custody as I do single mothers. Both now, and when I was growing up.

  • @MultiShadow1969 the other thing to consider is how much time is put into the career. My mom couldn't hold a job. Dad worked on average 48 hrs a week, and had a sort of job where if I needed help with homework or something was worng, I could call him at any given time and get help from him. If you're a doctor, lawyer, nurse, ect, you can't offer that. You've got a good job, but not a "good single parent" job, it's a "Good provider" job.

  • @iopenedpandorasbox The custody laws are incredibly unbalanced in the U.S. You're lucky to have been given custody to your father, I know many friends who are great dads, take care of there family as much as possible, but there mother is usually unstable and abusive, and still awarded custody. Altho your father may have been emotionally distant after the divorce, Im sure he did the best he could to take care of you. There are other families out there with both unstable parents.

  • @MultiShadow1969 US vs Canada, that's where the differences is between us. I'm not American. Getting back to the therapy thing however, when society begins to realise that men going to therapy doesn't mean that they're predators, then men will have an easier time getting that outlet. Frankly, I never thought like that. Dad and I did go to therapy together after the divorce. He needed it, I needed it. Dad was never emotionally distant. Other men I know are, he never was.

  • @MultiShadow1969 and you're very right. He did do all he could to take care for me. Everything from teaching me to cook, clean, sew, do laundry, take care of a car, teaching me to swim, even took First Aid with me when I was 16 to better my chances of getting a part-time job. He was very devoted. I'm grateful I got the chance to return that devotion the last 3 yrs before he passed last month. And no, my mother is a racist homophobic monster. I hate her, even without the illness, I hate her. 

  • @iopenedpandorasbox.. Thats because you are one the rare examples of a father bringing up his child alone, and proof that they can still turn out with having a decent childhood. There are many stigmas attached to both the mother and father, women being more emotionally secure, and a man being "weak" for seeking therapy, but in an age of supposed "Equality" when does a parent just become a parent and not just a man or woman?

  • @MultiShadow1969 When all parents, regardless of gender, race or romantic partner are seen just as parents. At least that's my hope. That when any parent, regardless of those discriminating factors, enters a court is seen just as the person providing and caring for a child, that we'll have that full equality. It's one of the reasons I fight for LGBT rights. I believe if a court can see gay parents as equal to hetero parents, then all gender stigmas will end. Logically, it'll end then.

  • @iopenedpandorasbox well whether or not a child needs their actual mother and father in their life, or a female and male counterpart in raising them, we still do not know. We still are just starting out with lesbian and gay couples raising children. For me, it is in whatever the child's best interest is in, not merely the wants of the parents. Whatever upbringing produces the best experiences and growth in a child, is ideally what is best for them.

  • @MultiShadow1969 yes and no. There are some children who were raised by gay or lesbian parents back in the 80's & 90's and are now fully grown (25 -30 yrs old), and in fact are just as healthy, capable and adjusted as their friends who were raised by a mom & dad. So there are kids raised by gays who are fully grown. I forget what the name is that they used to form an organization of support for other children of LGBT parents though. You could probably google it. & always, child's best interest.

  • @iopenedpandorasbox I was raised by a bi mother. When she had me, it would've been 10x easier for her to get rid of me. My father was AF, married & not involved in raising me. My mother & her family helped to raise me. She had to wear a ring & claim her husband was serving. Society treated single moms like dirt so she did what she had to. Sure, she made mistakes, all parents do. But she did her best, despite obstacles. I learned a lot about caring & family from her, as well as survival.

  • @askdjak That's the truth, dude. There are some..well..a lot of same sex parents that suck.

  • i must disagree that you are not the average family; from what i've seen, you are a much better mother than many i've seen :)

    you're son is absolutely amazing and he gives hope to the lgbt community.

  • you should be so proud ...this topic doesn't effect me...but your sons nobility has touched me...and his words have shown me , this is a topic that everyone should have a voice in. and not allow our law makers dictate who should be allowed to marry and who should not.

  • I have great respect for your family and passion for your rights for equlity, and to show others that we all share many if not all the same form of daily life situations, individually and as part of a wider Community.
