I know a gay couple who live together they adopted a teenage boy now he's gay.

Interesting point - without passing comment on whether his upbringing with them affected his sexuality - surely gay parents are better equipped to help teenagers come to terms with their own homosexuality? It doesn't always have to be a bad thing, a child coming out as gay "because" they have gay parents.

don't try to be funny with a topic which is sensitive to a minority of people

I fail to see a reason why to be against the gay people adopting

Suit yourself.

[Wildcat!]

LMAO! YOu cannot be serious with these comments acidbur08! BUt I have a feeling you are.
Anyways, not that I am an expert, but apparently, youre equally likely to be a homosexual, regardless of your parents sexual orientation. SO that point dont hold up!
I would rather kids be raised by straight parents because lets face it, that is the norm. But there are a lot of different situations these days. Kids raised by single parents(nothing wrong with that, but not ideal), or parents that are unfit (As in they are abussive, substance abuse etc..., or financially limited). SO Imo, they should be allowed to adopt if its a better situation for the kid.

I'm dead serious :L

But how would it increase the population of gay people?

[acidburn08]

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.

[acidburn08]

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

[acidburn08]

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

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!

[acidburn08]

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

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

[30stone]

This study has been widely quoted to prove that children raised by gay parents are not more likely to become gay themselves. The authors acknowledge their results demonstrate that young adults are more likely to consider trying out and actually engaging in homosexual relationships.

However, they say their analysis of the results do not support the idea that the actual sexual orientation of children is significantly different based on having a lesbian mother.

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.

[acidburn08]

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