Do you think it’s okay for LGBTQIA+ couples to adopt children? Why or why not?


I have mixed feelings about this , I used to say NO , then I have seen some incredible outcomes to the positive , so I just can't really answer. The two horrid dike style situation , I think is a really poor environment. But then I had a boss male ( Gay and wealthy ) and he has done an incredible job with his daughter , although she was born with his sperm , so slightly different.
It is so weird to see people rather see children stuck in the foster care system or become wards of the state, than just give them to a loving home. Even if that home has gay parents.
In 2023. . . it is actually a few miles past being weird.
I think so. I mean, children deserve to be loved and have a family who cares about them. It’s better than being in a foster care waiting for a straight couple just to pick a child.
Why do you think people would say no?
Can you follow me back
We aren’t afraid of the queers. We are disgusted by them. Big difference. 👍
Nah. Rapists are ashamed of their crimes and try to hide it. Queers are not. They are coming for your children. Literally.
I think you’re a moron because you support idiots.
See how that works? 😂
@Agagagagaga I’ve met many wonderful great queers. If you’re disgusted by queers, you’re effing biased.
@sasha0426 so Your guess is the people who say no are homophobic. Is homophobia really more common than racism?
Nu, I’ve met more homophobes than racists. By the way, the three racists I’ve met are also homophobes.
Yeah might as well if they really will love them and take care of them, because I don't want no orphan kids...

I believe that much of homosexual and lesbian behavior is learned, and that providing role models to teach children to gravitate towards alternate sexualties is neither in their best interest nor is it in the best interest of our culture or our species.
Of course. Having any loving parents is better than being stuck going from foster home to foster home
Because we all know homosexuals don’t abuse children and are all so “loving.” 🙄
@Agagagagaga yeah cause straight parents never abuse children? lol
Sexuality doesn’t determine if people are gonna be good parents are not. A couple being straight does not guarantee that they’d make better parents than a gay couple.
Look up the Gabriel Fernandez Story. He was living with a gay family member who loved him and then the mom took custody of him because she didn’t want her son raised by a gay man. Then she ended up brutally abusing and killing him. He would of been better off with the gay man 🥴🥴🥴
@Agagagagaga my ex-boyfriend is a perfect example, although there are such homosexuals that do abuse kids and there are heterosexuals who also abuse no kids. Anyone with a clean record deserves a right to have kids. @JustinTheGreat, that Gabriel Fernández story is a sad one. Sexuality has nothing to do with lovingness.
If you think homosexuals are by default better parents or can do the same job as a man and wife then you’re obviously a Lefty.
Two men ≠ one man and one woman
Two women ≠ one man and one woman
I know you think people are interchangeable, and that there is no difference between men and women, but uh, it takes a man and a woman to make a child. It always will. A mother AND a father. This is the IDEAL. It ALWYAYS has been.
Nah, two men are just as good. 👍 They can help explain to their daughter all about menstruation, boys, make-up, dating, relationships, and pregnancy. They are experts, after all. 🙄
@Agagagagaga yes, I’m a south paw; I’m left-handed. However, I don’t automatically say that gay couples are by any better than straight couples. It does usually take a male and a female to procreate, but sometimes they want the kid not, or are arrested, or are killed, whatever. I also believe in parthenogenesis, but that has like a one in a billion chance of happening. My father didn’t explain all those boy-stuff to me, so I dunno what’s up.
@Agagagagaga I think it is important for children to have role models of both genders in their life. So even if a daughter is raised by two men, she should still be close with aunts or other female relatives so she can talk about that stuff with them.
But regardless, that doesn’t mean gay people can’t be good parents lol. Even if the child doesn’t have role models of the same sex, men can still do research on those topics to educate her themselves.
You can say the same thing about single parents who are raising their kids without the other parent.
Justin, many kids are indeed raised by just one parent. Ain’t two parents of the same gender better than one parent? Raising with other relatives is a good idea! 🖤
@Agagagagaga Everyone, this is the true victim.
1. "He claims gays are by default better parents." No, he didn't say that at all.
2. "Its leftist to even consider a child to a gay person." When did politics enter into it? You would actually politicize this by writing a law preventing this?
3. "It takes a man and a woman to raise a child!" Being a ward of the state, being in the foster care and/or waiting for adoption are all horrible experiences for children. in that system they have no mother or father. We have the worst foster care system in the developed world. Most kids end up in prison, homeless and/or with serious mental challenges.
But instead of giving them to a home where they could have a shot at stability and a good life, even if it is with some gay folks, your politics has to win out.
Your belief system is no longer about success, welfare of the children or any of the above. It is just about your nonsensical political ideology. And it that ideology can no longer give regular folks a chance at a decent life, what good is it to anyone?
@RolandCuthbert 👏👏 very well written response.
As long as they're not forcing their ways on the children, then they're actually doing the kids a service by giving them good homes since their shitty previous parents couldn't do that
Many straight parents force their ways on the kids, be they politikal, religious, cultural, or just plain silly (like forbid them to date outside their race, forbid them to grow dreadlocks, etc). It can be hard to find parents that force no ways on the kids.
@HippieVeganJewslim Yeah, I guess it kinda goes both ways
Yes. Children need a family to love them. That family's sexuality is so far down the list of important things to be concerned about.
Good parents are good parents, end of story.
honestly it doesn't matter the gender of the parent as long as they'll be good for the kid and raise them with good values
I used to work as a social worker. No. No one talks about the abuse these kids face from same sex couples.
Ever heard of the Gabriel Fernandez story? He was living with a gay family member who loved him and then the mom took custody of him because she didn’t want her son raised by a gay man. Then she ended up brutally abusing and killing him. He would have been better off with the gay man. Stereotype gay people not.
@HippieVeganJewslim sounds more of a case of the institutional sexism that's rife in the system than anything to do with the guy's sexuality.
I've worked on the ground floor of this as a social, nothing to do with stereotyping.
Then if the gay couple did nothing bad, should be OK.
Aye aye, because sexual orientation of the couples has nothing to do with the kid that’s being adopted.
I don't think same-sex couples are mentally capable of it. Studies show that children suffer psychological problems when they only have a single parent.
No. LGBT people are deeply immoral and children don't need to grow up around distortion about what a actual family suppose to be like.
If you believe that stereotype that were immoral then your brain must be the size of a Korean penis. Both of my folks are heterosexual and they, along with a stepfather, abused me a googolplex times.
As long as they're good parents, it doesn't matter the combination of mf, mm, or ff.
Yes. They deserve children like any man/woman couple.
Absolutely not
The Mental illness community should never adopt kids
it shocks me that people voted yes to this
If you’re voting no, am I shocked.
@HippieVeganJewslim why? can you imagine letting a child into a home where a man frolics around in another mans hairy dirthole and now fails to even keep it on the DL?
Many men frolic in their wife’s/girlfriend’s/prostitute’s arsehole. Many children have been in the same flat that sex took place. Anal sex doesn’t have to take place for two people to live together.
Of course
Of course.
Hell no.
Disgusting.
