But how would it increase the population of gay people?

Because the chances of the adopted person being gay is higher?

WTF?!
No it's not, at all.
Just because someone grows up in a gay environment does not sway their sexuality, at all.

Well say for eg you're 2 years old and get raised by a farmer, the chances of you being a farmer is higher since you would know more about farming than other things, its the same with gays

So because someone has gay parents that means they will turn out gay?
No, people who have straight parents don't always turn out straight
People who have gay parents are only going to be a lot more open minded on issues such as sexuality which could lead them to experimenting sexually but thats down to how the person is brought up by any parents not the sexuality of those parents.

I never said they will, I just said the chances of them would be higher.

Since when has being gay been a physical activity, a job? A hobby?
They're totally different, and have no similarities at all all.
You're seriously making yourself look like an ignorant idiot here.

Still the same argument, the chances wouldn't be higher at all
The only chance is that the children will grow up more open minded and comfortable with all types of people and I would rather see a nation on open minded people brought up by gay people rather than ignorant people brought up by straight people

Wow that hurts. It doesn't need to be a job, maybe the one adopted sees his parents like..You know.. And then he starts to prefer..Well idk, Its hard to explain :D

So just because a child sees his gay adopted parents engaging in sexual activity, turns him homosexual and makes him prefer males? OMFG do me a favour, really. You're argument is seriously making no sense at all, &your grasping at straws to keep your argument afloat.

GROWING UP IN A GAY COMMUINITY DOES NOT TURN YOU GAY, END OF STORY! :rolleyes:

I never said it did, I just said the chances were higher..

BUT THE CHANCES ARE NOT HIGHER
And don't compare it to farming again :tongue: LMFAO

Why don't you just leave this argument along because with every post your making yourself look even more of an idiot

What i just read so more likely to experiment with gay parents but results show having gay parents generally wont change a childs sexual oriantation.

Oh, sorry, would you prefer me to compare it to baking?

there is no need to be rude. HE is just putting forth his opinion on the matter! YOure not gonna shut him down by calling him an idiot!
Someone told me that it doesnt make it any higher of a chance of being gay. However, I havent seen any statistics to prove that. I have even tried to research it! Its not crazy for someone to assume that a childs sexuality will be influenced by his parents. I would personally think that it does. BUt I dont have any facts to back it up!

I can't believe at how many ignorant forum members there are.

The most important thing for a child is having a stable, loving family. If the parents happen to be gay, so what? The bullying argument doesn't really stand in my opinion. Yes, kids will bully anyone who is "different". If gay adoption was freely accepted, in time it would move away from this stigma. It's similar to when divorce was a lot less common. 20 years ago, a child would have been bullied for having separated parents, but nowadays children wouldn't even acknowledge it.

Yeah, well these days some kids get laughed at for wearing glasses.. Just proves what type of world we live in. But laughing at someone for having gay parents.. Well yea, they probably would bully them :(

Yes!

yes of course

id love to be adopted by 2 gay men :D it would be so fun

you cant use the bullying as a arguement esp comparing it to kids who get laughed at for wearing glasses that certainly not a 'these days' thing i got it for having glasses over 15 yrs ago people will always unfortunaly be bullied for any little thing that makes them different that could be hair colour body size sexuality for wearing glasses i could go on and on and on listing them but i wont and i cant see how the bullying can be used as a reason as to why gay people cant adopt as long as they bring the child with all the love and care they care give what does it matter on the sexuality of them

The question wasn't if every gay couple SHOULD adopt. Of course it's up to the individuals themselves.
They're asking if they should be ALLOWED. And in my opinion, no they should not

Yes they should be allowed.

MINORITY? Wow, do you not realise just how many people are gay or bisexual nowadays?
