I fear for my gay countrymen that women like Crouse will stop at nothing to fuck this country up

Crouse is lying again. Studies that look at mother/father homes NEVER compared them to same-sex households. Interesting how she talks about the majority of studies prove her point but when shown a study not proving her argument, she talks about "propaganda."

I am surprised this "organization" still exists in this day and age. Don't these myth-believing bitches have more important things to worry about?

"every study that is out there says very clearly that a married mom and dad family is what is best for children." if that is the case I wonder if she is also advocating for the removal of children from single parent households?

it is not a choice of straight parents vs gay parents, it is a choice between gay parents and no parents. 'most' straight couples dont adopt.

[SmashtheCmachine]

It's OBVIOUS that gay couples often raise children with greater confidence., statistically speaking. It all has to do with the rules of adoption. To adopt: you have to be prepared to take care of the child. You are aware of what you are getting involved in. You have to be ready for it. You can't get drunk and accidentally adopt.

So this finding that gay people do so well in raising children, for as much as it's screamed "propaganda", has a logical reason for it.

[SmashtheCmachine]

The best thing "FOR THE CHILDREN!" is a family that loves them. If you want "good for children", then certainly, the foster system is what is NOT good for children. So where does this bitch get off saying that same sex relationships shouldn't be allowed? That (in short) she thinks children are better off in foster care?

Also: we support gay marriage not because we're afraid to speak out. We support it because it's the right thing to do.

Ms. Crouse knows that most people do not look beyond the surfaceof the so-called authority who has the microphone in front of her mouth. There are clearly studies that are not 'propaganda' which contradict her traditionalist nonsense.

[SeparateisntEqual]

So apparently UCSF/UCLA and the University of Amsterdam aren't good enough for this chick. FAIL.

[Goneoffshore]

Had to "Like" this as Crouse gets smacked down.

Furthermore: In fact, scholars, at USC and New York University recently considered a range of existing studies, including research on gay and lesbian parents, and found that while it’s ideal for a child to be raised by two parents who are “responsible, committed, stable,” the parents’ gender “doesn’t cause radical differences.” The American Psychological Association has similarly concluded that “beliefs that lesbian and gay adults are not fit parents have no empirical foundation.
