Homosexuality - Nature vs Nurture

     Recent studies show gay parents are more likely to have gay kids.  Whether this is good or bad depends on your outlook on gays in general, I suppose.  However, it definitely supports my idea that being gay is not always something you are born with.  I feel that if you enroll your son in ballet and figure skating, and your daughter in softball and lacrosse, you could be fostering a homosexual.  Not to say that all softball players are lesbians and all male ballerinas are gay, but let's face it - these are stereotypes that ring true often.
      However, when reading through the article, there was certainly one thing that upset me: "The decision to permit homosexuals to adopt is best made by the judiciary on a case by case basis."   Ah, there's the kicker.  Nothing like a little governmental prejudice to spice up a story.  I would love to hear of one rational reason gays would ever be unable to adopt that isn't based on the sole fact that they are gay.  

       Your straight sons will continue to be called "faggot" in school for as long as the government allows this prejudice.  If the government bullies the gays, how does anyone expect young children not to do the same in their schools?  Watch TV.  Bullying is becoming a major issue.  Kids are committing suicide everywhere and often.  Many of them are doing so because they are being called gay, rather than actually being gay.  
       Young children, those too young to even know their orientation are hanging themselves.  I  guess a brutal, self-inflicted death is a better alternative to being called gay all of the time.  Why?  Because being called gay is one of the worst things you can say to someone.  Why is that?  I'm not too sure.  I truly wish it wasn't the case.
     Another study on the topic also says that a household without a dad could be beneficial for a child, as your son may be more empathetic and nurturing, rather than caught up in becoming the family's next alpha male. Gay parents tend to raise children in a more open, accepting environment, and rightfully so, because gays tend to be more open and accepting.  I've never heard of a gay walking by someone who "looks" straight and yelling "EW! WHAT A HETERO," in their face.  It just doesn't seem to happen that way.
