I stated a personal opinion, why do I have to supply a link?
Have people gotten so stupid they can't have a personal opinion and must rely on a website for how they should feel and how they should think?
Truly pathetic....
People are entitled to have their own personal opinions, even if they are based purely on ignorance and prejuduce with no basis in fact and with no evidence to support it.
However, most rational people base their opinions on facts, evidence etc.
plwhit is right, it's about role-modeling and what impressionable children are taught is acceptable and normal. We are at a precipice of change. As time passes, you will see that many children of gay couples will be either bi or gay, not all, but more inclined. There are many studies about how children learn. For example, children that are abused are more inclined to grow up to be abusers.
The change in society toward gays, will result in more gays. The studies will come.
The big flaw in your 'argument' is that we already know that people don't 'learn' to be homosexual or heterosexual.
The fetal brain develops during the intrauterine period in the male direction through a direct action of testosterone on the developing nerve cells, or in the female direction through the absence of this hormone surge. In this way, our gender identity (the conviction of belonging to the male or female gender) and sexual orientation are programmed or organized into our brain structures when we are still in the womb.
There is no indication that social environment after birth has an effect on gender identity or sexual orientation.
Show me how a man can impregnate another man and that man carries the fetus through until conception.
Ask Arnold Schwarzenegger.
seriously: Like how infertile heterosexual couples get pregnant. They get a surrogate or they adopt. Like how lesbian couples get pregnant. They get a surrogate or they adopt (they actually have a third option: Invitro)
why do you think the ability to get pregnant is a requirement for marriage?

So now we have two gay men that cannot conceive children can only adopt and we KNOW gay men stick with gay men and lesbians stick with lesbians so they cannot conceive on their own, right there the population decreases....and as LTGB becomes more mainstream the birth rate will drop even more..
In what fantasy land do you think this will happen? and news: birth rates in the US have dropped at a steady rate for years. BEFORE lesbians and gays could adopt or use other means to have a child.

In a few generations the TGBL community will self implode for lack of bodies....
So, if homosexuals are only conceived/produced by other homosexuals, just WHERE has the current gay population come from?

What's truly pathetic is making a scurrilous claim and then refusing to back it up with evidence.
If you sincerely believe that the sexual orientation of adoptive parents has such an effect on a child's own orientation, then you must also believe that no child adopted by heterosexual parents has ever turned out gay.
Do you really, seriously, honestly believe that?
