Another problematic fact is, most of the networks are owned by the same entities, so there's no diversity of thought with respect to much of the content.

No one is allowed to voice opposition to homosexuality, or speak up for traditional families any more. For this reason, I stopped watching the mainstream media years ago.
Then that is your choice. But your kids are aware of it and maybe since you have established your point of view, don't mention if they might disagree with you. And nobody is telling you not to have a 'traditional' family.

The couple I most admire because they got together the same time I got married and are still happy and together, where I haven't even spoken to the jerk in ten years, is a lesbian couple. I would have given anything for it to be like that with my husband since it *was* real, but life moves on sometimes you just can't move on with them. But the really happy people I see are those where you did, whatever sex anyone is.

Ahh now were are getting some where.... That's is what i want, and not in public, on tv and or so called wardrobe malfunctions.

I make clothing and sew myself from hats to mocs and everything between and never once has my clothing had a wardrobe malfunction.

I have made dresses and skirts for my WIFE, she even wore one of the skirts when we MARRIED, and she wore deer skin mocs on her feet that days as did I, with leather breeches and a white trade shirt i made with a green weskit (vest)

I make moccasin boots too, leggins and assorted other and my work doesn't have malfunctions.

I wouldn't sew except I can't but this stuff in Walmart.

From now on, I'm going to think of you sitting at the sewing machine.

Throughout history there have been all kinds of people raising children, for all kinds of reasons - people that lost a spouse to death, people who have been left by the spouse, people who aren't even the parents (grandparents), but the anti-gayers have this mind set in stone that they ignore real life and what happens in it. They've made up their mind that it's got to be 1 male and 1 female and they think that fantasy world of theirs is reality.
I'm afraid that I came across like I was patting myself on the back in that post and that's really not what I was trying to do.

The point I was trying to make is that millions of kids have been successfully raised without the so-called "benefits" of a father - either by single women like myself or by two women.

Such as this young man:


Zach Wahls Speaks About Family - YouTube

I know most of us have already seen that video, but I think it's important to re-post it from time to time.

And he's just one example.

When we parted we stopped and i gave my son a hug, which happened to be in front of 2 gals on Sportsters and my son rode off not catching that glare..

I winked at these 2 gals, and said it's ok he's my son, which caused them to smile in a different relaxed way.

That's it for me kissing males.

Not everyone is going to accept this BS. it is what it is....
I mean hugging and kissing a member of the same gender in a romantic manner.

I have hugged men recently, and can say that I love those individuals, and I am sure that my dad kissed me when I was young. Those are different expressions of affectiion from gay relationships.

4 women hugged me last night. That was awesome.

Strange that Mac Muz hangs out at truck stops, don't you think?

You must me older than me, and likely old enough to be my parent.

My generation is going to undo the mess that your generation made.

Aren't you glad that if you had kids, that you did?

You can buy your own TV station and make the rules for that station, but you can not tell other citizens how to behave when they are committing no crime. Why are you bringing up nipplegate? That was a heterosexual, and the FCC fined the network i think.

Get over it.
