Do You Judge Or Critize Based On Sexuality?

I've seen the other post but I just really
want to ask you myself.. I mean I am
bisexual and in a girl to girl
relationship and have a 2yr old son from a
previous relationship.
I just want to know if you really judge on
their sexuality or does that make you
uncomfortable to know someone who is
bisexual or lesbian or even homosexual to
have children by artificial insemination/
nor adoption.
Based on your thoughts and opinion.. I am
not looking for a debate or anything.
Im just really curious on how other people
reply on this kind of topic because
usually it turn into a debate .. Which I
don't want.

I am completely for same sex couples
&same sex parents.
They're people, too. With morals, values,
opinions, goals...
They have the same emotions as anyone
else.
&.If two people of the same sex are in
a relationship,
&they want to raise a child together,
.I don't see why
it would be an issue at all. They can
&will give a child
just as much love, nurturing, &support
as anyone else.

I totally can understand that. I mean
some people really don't like to see same
sex raising a child because it is against
the moral of religion and other things. I
mean alot of people would say well .. For
an example.. I got pregnant and my gf
isn't the "technically" not the birth
mother but I always say once the baby born
you can start immediate adoption process
to go through because it takes a year or
even more to go through. I mean its
normal to go through these kind of things.

A common stereotype is that gay men should
not be allowed to adopt a child because
they will obviously abuse it. All gay
men are paedophiles of course

I think its best if kids have a mom and
dad. Being 2 same sex parents is like a
single parent family cos the kid either
has moms or dads not both. Yeh they can
be great parents, supportive, loving, etc
etc but imo its not the best situation to
raise a child in. Must be confusing and
strange etc for a young child too...So in
that way a single parent is better than a
same sex couple. Theres good and bad
points about both. A mom and dad is a
lot better imo.

It wouldn't be strange for a child if
that's all they've known since birth.
Having two mommies or two daddies would be
normal for them.

I'm bisexual but I am with dom and as far
as I am concernerned always will be. Same
sex relationships with children is fine in
my eyes many people may disagree but would
you rather have a baby in a hetrosexual
relationship being abused when it could be
adopted by a same sex couple who would
look after it

i didnt mean like that. When they get to
school and start getting old enough to
know what a family unit is and that
most/all of their friends have a mom and
dad, not 2 the same sex. There was a
documentary on tv about this last year,
the girl was bullied because of it in
primary school and had no friends, she was
well adjusted, loved etc but very alone
and depressed because of how her friends
and friends parents viewed it, she seemed
confused about relationships. Dread to
think how much worse it would be when she
got to high school. -thats just one of
the reasons.
I dont think its a really bad thing,
because its better than a kid living in a
childrens home or on the streets, or with
abusive parents etc but having a mom and
dad is much better imo. If I have this
baby adopted i'll choose a married man and
woman definately.

Yeah but sadly for most kids they only
have one or other not both, so having 2
parents would be the oddity, not the fact
they are same sex

what? Yeh theres a lot of single parent
families, but they dont see a family with
a mom and dad as odd. Thats how families
are best.

yeah, I can remember when I was primary
school (about 6 years old or so), the
teacher told our class that this girl in
our class's parents were getting divorced
and to be extra nice to her because she
was very upset. I had never heard of
such a thing! It was like something out
of the ordinary fot the teacher to make a
speacial point of it.

Exactly I had no idea what divorce was!.
When I was five I thought that if you have
a baby tou become married and you are
always together you don't leave
eachother's side and you always have 2
kids. I have no idea why I thought that
though

not at all. I find it disgusting to judge

thing I judge about a guy who's gay is
that there is 0 possibility of us going
out lol.

I was always into gay and lesbian rights
growing up because I have friends and
family who are gay, lots of them! I was
the president of my gsa in high school and
worked really closely with one
organization called glsen (gay lesbian and
straight education network) and even tho
im straight its important to have a voice
and stand up for what you believe in. In
the midterm elections 4 states just
outlawed gay marriage, its really sad in
my eyes of how un excepting of love,
happiness and family people and our own
government can be. A dear friend of mines
mother came out to him when he was 10
(almost 13 years ago) and she has been
with her partner since, they have raised
him just as good as in any heterosexual
relationship. Love makes a family is the
name of a great organization for same sex
couples raising children and I think that
anyone interested should google it and
check it out. They provide support for
parents and there children. I think same
sex couples can raise a child just as good
as heterosexual couples, the best thing a
child is raised on is love.
