Dispatches from the Culture Wars: Anti-Gay Marriage Nonsense at “Values Voter Summit”
When are we going to stop being prissy about gay marriage? Folks, straight, monogamous marriage has never been the huge success people have made it out to be. Its damned hard work, and anyone who makes it work is a genius. Gender is irrelevant to love and respect.
As for the issue of progeny, with so many straight couples needing help having/adopting kids, no barrier should be there to gays. And with so many kids coming from parents that shouldn’t be allowed to raise goldfish, any kid who gets a loving, stable home, with whatever combo of parents (single, two men, two women, one of each, blended, step, etc), is getting what they deserve.
Only someone who cares little for a child could advocate that foster care and its uncertainties (despite many wonderful foster parents, the system itself is not pro children or carers in so many ways), or orphanage, or abusive home, is better than gay parents.
