I think gay marriage and adoption should spread all over the world.

Homosexuality is filthy vomit....

i disagree with what he said at the start, the deffonition of family has not changed because you cannot define family, it is different for every person gay or straight

Most of the comments below are repulsive. Best just to watch the video and not read.

@G41MCombo WTF are you talking about? And where do you get off saying a woman should terminate pregnancy?

[G41MCombo]

@rainbowheartgirl You both are idiots its not genetics and if any gene is getting affected it is due to the hormonal imbalance during the ending of second trimester and the beginning of the third trimester. It is the mother whose hormones need to be monitored during pregnancy and the pregnancy should be terminated in case of hormonal imbalanced conditions.

inshort Gaynada is dying. heterosexuals are refusing to have babies thats just perfect, the only way to get rid of the gay menace

@snowfallzz If you don't want people to comment back on your posts, THEN DON'T POST COMMENTS AT ALL, Simple as that, it's not rocket science. You say you have nothing against your gay "friend" yet you don't think he should be allowed to adopt children? Well then you DO have something against him. A conservative couple murdering each other? Whodathunkit? Way to go for the "Sanity of marriage". And there is no "Straight" gene either.

@ofelixdacat Seriously you fucking troll? you have to comment on a post I did a year ago? Wow. For one thing you need to look up Nancy Schaefer who her and her husband had an apparent 2x suicide as she stood against cps child theft for federal and state reimbursements..My wife and I both have a mutual friend who's gay, I don't judge him for being gay at all. Even though I feel it's odd that they can't find a gay gene, I suppose someday they will, along with a criminal gene too. Women>Men/infants

@snowfallzz Ur very ignorant. It was never the kids option to be born in the 1st place, nor was it their option which parents got to raise them. It's better for a kid to have 2 loving dads than be stuck in foster care with no parents at all. I had a mom who was not nurturing at all, like many 'moms' out there who neglect & abuse their children. Just because a kid is raised by their birth mother doesn't mean she is going to be nurturing or a good parent.

@0240327502485 It's was never that childs choice 2 b born 2 begin with, nor was it ever that child's choice to b a product of rape. Whats sicking is that people tell that mother she cant abort her child, yet want NOTHING to do with that child after. How many children have you adopted? Are you personally willing to care for that woman's child until it turns 18? U pretend to care about babies, when in reality, that woman was once a baby too.
