Do you think homosexuals should be able to adopt children?
I do i think that a child needs a loving caring environment and if that comes from 2 men whats the problem.What do you think?

I generally don't give a shit as long as the parents are capable of being parents. I've known plenty of kids who grew up in fucked up environments with straight parents, so it really doesn't matter. They've already proven homosexuality isn't really a choice...it's more of a chemical make-up of your body....so a child raised by gay men or women won't choose to be gay simply because of it. If the gay parents in question want their child to have to deal with the insults they'll inevitably get in school, that's up to them, but otherwise I don't care as long as the parents are good parents.

More than likely, as long as they don't adopt, like, everyone. That would be, ya know, detrimental to the furtherment of humanity.

Ah, yes. All of us being gay wouldn't work too well, though with IVF...

If that happened i suppose ppl would be against streight parents, and of course it would solve the problem of abortion.But then again how would male coulples have babies would there be like a surragcey agencey.

Fea, punctuation and spaces are your friends. Or at least that's what people like me would have you believe... what I'm getting at is this: Grammar. Use it. If you don't, someday in the future I shall castrate you. Needless to say, this would hurt, because you are female, according to your handy-dandy little side-profile.
Also, for Christ's sake, use the "e", "o", and other "e" you omitted from the word "people". Or else I will castrate you.
That said, I see no problem in gay couples adopting. Frankly, being a private person myself, I think sexual orientation is none of our business, anyway. Granted, I know several children who were adopted by gay parents... and I absolutely hate all of them. Though that comes as no surprise, because I absolutely hate most people. However, I don't think the fact that they're complete anal cavities is a consequence of their having been raised by gay people. As said before, so long as the gay parents are capable of raising children, I have no problem with it.
(Now, who cares to offer an analysis of how much of that post was relevant? And, as a follow up, how much of the relevant part wasn't already mentioned? Show your work.)

Try and pull it back a notch, OK? |

If the parents are capable of providing, and the children are asked, and have no problem with it, then why not?

Children...are...asked?
DA, unless I'm mistaken we're talking about raising kids from birth. I can imagine that conversation.
Lawyer: So, baby Timmy, are you alright with being raised by gay parents?
Timmy: -=Sucks thumb=-
Lawyer: Timmy, you have to respond, or we can't let them adopt you.
Timmy: -=Screams=-
Lawyer: Alright, I can't let them adopt you then.
Timmy: -=Shits pants=-
