Not "maybe." They DO. Ask my mom and dad.

Or "MAYBE" I don't exist?

Scientific studies say otherwise. There is now enough evidence out there about the psychological development of children in gay/lesbian households, and it shows that there is NO DIFFERENCE in emotional health or maturity between kids in gay homes and kids in straight homes.

I'm sorry to inform you but, your assertion here is simply not supported by the facts.

That's quite simply not true, it's clear that if a kid sees he has a mother and a father he may still grow up to live with a same-sex partner.

By your logic children from single-parent homes would never have relationships at all.

To name another example; my father was a architect, this didn't make me into a architect either.

To put it in yet another way; would you really say that you are straight just because your parents were?

Well, if that's how you feel then that's how you feel, but you can't assume this holds true for all other children as well.

Papuna, it seems to me that you are basically describing how things are in your home town. This is troubling and serious. That´s not how it should be.

We all seek fulfillment in life. Just because you might go to sleep tonight and make love with your hand doesn't really imply anything about your parents, or your children to come. Or whether or not they will do the same. Or if their friends will make fun of them because of your hand.

I see... you're describing social pressures that exist outside of the child's relationship with same-sex parents. And that doesn't say gay people would make bad parents, just that a whole lot of people in the world don't understand (which is undeniably true).

So, then, do you think this external social pressure is correct? That is, which do you think is the problem: gay parents, or the people who hate gay parents?

Dear Dude,

When you aren't the best in using the English language, please use the knob 'SpellCheck' for sure. Only the red words aren't corrected, but most will...

A truly classic, witty retort! Way to go!

I jumped into this thread which is WAAY off topic. Laughing

What Papuna is saying is that anyone who is different suffers because of the way Stupid, narrow-minded people treat him/her. This is a sad fact.

However, his solution is just "nobody should ever step out of line or be different."

It's a sad truth. Lots of people conform just because they're afraid of social condemnation.

However, what we ought to do, instead of spreading and supporting this fear ("Oh No!!! Don't be different...be like everyone else, or people will laugh at you!!") we should be trying to open people's minds and encourage them to accept / tolerate folks who are different.

It has worked to some degree. People are way more tolerant of gay people than they used to be.

How about you, Papuna, can I encourage you to not be the kind of person who would laugh at Gay people or their children?

Two things which are IMHO important in this (Off Topic) thread...

First Papuna is in his early twenties, which is regarding the average age of the members of this forum, over 40, rather young, so his opinions are more black and white colored then the most of us, and,
secondly, he lives in a country around the Black Sea, which has a different culture then the West-European countries. Specially about moral issues. This implies a very high social pressure. So don't fall to hard on somebody... (about surpressing homosexual feelings)

Some weeks ago I met an Englishman who loved gay men and hated lesbians. The first group made more women available to the straight men and the last took potentional partners away... Somewhere in England in 2007...

Hey, just wanted to clarify, I wasn't trying to slam anyone. Masturbation is a well practiced form of sex in the world. It can be considered a sexual orientation, if you think about it, just like heterosexual or homosexual sex is. Maybe it's not accepted in public, but it is understood on a personal level by most people. I was simply trying to draw a parallel between something "foreign" to some people, with something they may understand a little bit better but never think about.

Laura - Thank you for your post. I have to admit, most women I run into that are tauting diversity are pissed about something on a personal level or from a historical perspective, and rarely give a chance for someone else to really begin outside the pattern they've experienced (this may not be intended, but it is very often the action). It just begins by putting someone on the defensive, by pointing out a flaw first. So I thank you for your compassion in trying to reach out and pull someone in. It's beautiful to see someone starting with seeing the bridge that connects us, rather than the walls that divide us.

This is a good remark, I think.

The whole idea of "sexual orientation" is a very recent one. For example, for a very long time there was the idea of a "soddomite", or somebody who has anal sex. The idea of a "homosexual" replaced that, just a short time ago, to indicate the nature of a person as opposed to how he acts (and by extention indicate a "unusual" nsture which is always social usefull *cough*). The whole idea of "hetrosexuality" had to be invented a few years later in contrast to "homosexuality".

Frankly I think the whole concept of "sex" is so vague as to border on the meaningless (certainly at least as vague as "God"). For example, when Jack cleans his penis in the shower he might make a movement that in a different context would be considered a sexual one, but there it's not. Bill might wear leather gloves because he's cold while to Jack the exact same gloves could be a major turn on and be extremely sexual, etc, etc, etc.
