I look at these posts and think.... THE HELL? I know many gay couples, they are nice, sensible people, who I think are just as good if not better caretakers than many straight people. And marriage? You can't VOTE on human rights. It's just like sexism and racism, these people are oppressed, give them the goddamn rights.

I support the marriage, but I am on faulty grounds with adoption, due to the risks of molestation and underage sexual activity.

BEFORE you flame me for my comment, if you were a pedophile, what better place to find children to partake in your sick profession, than an orphanage.

It may seem far fetched, but I for one, would not like to walk in on my parents, and then become part of the sexual interaction.

By that logic all adoption should be ended. Straight people are no less likely to be child molesters than gay people.

Yes but at least a mother is an oppressor to molestation, due to the 'motherly' aspect of all women.

Thank you. This is such a rude generalization.

The law fails to recognize the motherly aspect of women as viable basis for discrimination. There are still woman child molesters.

Whats gay adoption?

not to mention the point I already presented a long time ago: It doesn't require womanhood, estrogen, female genitals or anything else men can't have to be a sufficient mother, or for the nitpickers, to execute the role that the mother of a child usually does.

a big brother can act basically as a mother to his orphaned siblings just as well as a big sister. Or, I'm not denying the possibility, a younger sibling, especially if the eldest ones are mentally handicapped or jerks.

So why not a man who, instead of being forced to look after children that happen to be his close kin, chooses to nurture a child they choose to consider family?

And, as said, gay couples will have to fit just as high standards as heterosexual couples, probable child molesters wouldn't be able to adopt, be they gay or straight.

Hell, are you people idiots or something? Why can't things concerning homosexuality be debated on fair grounds instead of the other party's points being conveniently disregarded?

Adoption of orphans by homosexual individuals. And yes, i realize the distinction is funny, but it is unfortunately very real in United States and many other countries.

I look like an idiot fumbled in this, because I pointed out something that MIGHT happen due to gay adoption.
