This news story makes me sad and angry, and leaves me shaking my head. How can people assume that proximity to a homosexual relationship will warp children? How can we still be caught up on "sexual roles"? The poor daughters who now must live without their mother. I look forward to raising children in a home that doesn't care about gender or sex roles and is completely comfortable with things queer. I want my future daughters to know, like I told my neice once, that they can be anything they want to be when they grow up - they don't even have to be a girl. (Sons, likewise.)

Wow, that is a really difficult article to read, absolutely infuriating and disgusting.

I feel the exact same way. It is sometimes difficult in application (sub-consciously). Like, I found myself picking out a "feminine" colored outfit for my new sister. Egads! Then I thought about how I don't want her to feel pushed into a gender. It just goes to show you the absolute pathetic insecurity in many heterosexuals nowadays. To assume that heterosexual parenting overall has been in the least so glorious is ridiculous. There's no backing except for people who want to lie to themselves and feel like they are better because they fit outdated social roles.

i agree. in a few weeks here we'll vote about whether to have gay marriage in switzerland or not. those against it say that it would open the door to gays adopting children which would be harmful and dangerous to children, society, and the traditional family.
no comment - grrr!
