I am a butch lesbian female. I do not have children. I don't care to date women that do. I have been looked down upon by my gay peers regarding my feelings on this issue..

1. I personally feel homosexuality disqualifies a couple from children. Biologically speaking, two people of the same sex CANNOT produce a child.

2. I view children (and their conception) heterosexual activity. In my eyes, if you have a child, at some point you liked men, therefore I classify that as hetero/bi sexual.

3. Considering the government does NOT acknowledge gay marriage in all states, how can a gay couple claim to have a legal and binding "family"?

. Since I have no children and don't want any, I don't believe in co-parenting. I don't feel I should contribute to something I have no biological connection to. I don't feel its my responsibility. Someone's choices that they make when practicing heterosexual behavior are YOUR choices.

Call me cold, mean or whatever. I just feel people want to have their cake and eat it too, despite other lives being affected. I don't think its fair or right. And people just don't consider that America is still not really gay friendly. Does anyone think of the children involved and affected by adults who think sexuality is like a light switch?

I don't believe folks are born gay. Its a choice. But if you make a choice, stick with it.

Please no rude comments or name calling. Negative behavior is not a requisite for a difference of opinion.

I am a lesbian, and have children.
My children are just as happy, and stable as any other children.

If you feel that homosexuality was a choice for you, then you could possibly be bisexual. I didn't have a choice, I was always attracted to other women, and not men.

To each their own, but don't think that you speak for every homosexual out there.

Lots..many LBGT's think they have a right to a family. A right to marriage, yes. A person should be allowed to marry whomever the want. Right to children is a different issue as stated in the primary post.

No I don't speak for every homosexual..I'm only speaking for me..

Question though: you stated you have children..so you must have liked men at some point. Unless there are extenuating circumstances..

So you think that I don't have the right to use medical procedures just like a heterosexual woman can do. I don't have the right to go through pregnancy, give birth and raise my children in a loving home?

Seriously?

Is it not better for a kid to have 2 moms and 0 dads than 0 moms and 0 dads?

Just because you don't care for children doesn't mean others don't. I know of several Lesbian couples who have children and are very happy. I also know of many heterosexual couples who don't want children and are happy.

You sound very angry, my guess is because you are unable to find someone who shares your views. Maybe lighten a bit and one could come calling.
