About the confusion issue which you highlight Sunshine. When a child is brought up by two gay males or females - they know no difference! It is just life [as they come to know it] It just has to be accepted, that's all. To discriminate against it is naturally your luxury, as you can do. But many gay people will disagree with you. I am quite straight myself and have a lovely girl who I live with and we hope to have a child in a year or two. But I do know a gay couple who also love children and would love the opportunity to have a child and I wouldn't have a problem with them getting their wish.
What the law decides - the law decides
In Spain you can have Sex at 13 years old, straight or gay. In the United Kingdom that would be called 'paedophilia' and France is 15 years old - but you'll know that!

Ok so imagine your daughter with no father but 2 mothers, don't you think there will be a change in her mind ? I don't know how old is she but first of all, when you are a child, the girl is attracted by the father it's "Oedipe" and at school, she won't understand and she would be surely bullied (I didn't say all of them but we all know kids in general are cruel towards the differences)
I'm not saying a gay couple isn't able to love a child, of course they will and fortunatly.
And I agree, what the law decided, the law decided and so far it makes a great job because our societies aren't ready for that.
And it's not true, you must have 16 and 3 months in order to have sex in France but I don't mind lol. But would you give me the point of telling me the different ages please.

I am aware about being picked on at School. Both myself and my girlfriend have experienced it to some degree. I must also point out that some children get bullied a lot and for all different types of reasons. Then you need to look at the total amount of children within a School and if the School had a couple of children who had gay parents - that would be a very small percentage overall. I would imagine that the teachers would be told of those two childrens situation- [Both having gay parents] and deal with it accordingly. Nobody here will say that it will be easy. But nobody should say that it shouldn't be accepted either.
I realise that you have taken a bit of flack over this by a couple of other members within this topic, but that is understandable - as your views are rather harsh towards the rights of gay people. Care to know how many gay people reside in the United Kingdom Sunshine? It is a BIG proportion of the population and growing fast. Their voice is getting heard more and more - Elton John is very much a gay campaigner.
In regards to my last comment - whereby I was stating the legal consent for sex in Spain and France. The reason I mentioned it was, that I saw this website -

Nothing more than that! It does say '15' for France??
