The bullying argument against gay adoption...

Why give a bully more ammunition?
These kids need a stable home. Just because they could get bullied anyway, doesn't mean that you shouldn't do what you can to try and prevent them from being targets.




Children of single parents? I think not..

What makes you think that a child of gay parents wouldn't have a stable home? That's an incredibly closed minded opinion. There are thousands of unstable heterosexual homes that children can grow up in, just because a child might have gay parents, it doesn't automatically result in an unstable family life.
In fact, a recent study has shown that the child of gay parents actually does better in school and is better adapted than children from heterosexual families because the parents actively planned and wanted to have the child, compared to a heterosexual couple who can have a child by 'accident'.

You obviously didn't even read the post you quoted. It mentioned nothing about stable homes.

Stop being so racist.

So, what I'm asking is, why do we keep submitting bullying as a reason against gay adoption exclusively?

Is it better than no parents in a home? I would say it probably is. Teasing for no parents or Gay parents. Does it make a difference?

Better to have a stable household imo.

Given that the choice is not between homosexual parents or heterosexual parents, but rather is between homosexual parents or the orphanage, I know where I'd rather grow up.

By the way, anyone who argues in favour of discriminating against homosexual couples, that is fine, you are entitled to your opinion, but could you change your sig to "I AM A HOMOPHOBE" so that future debaters can identify you quickly and easily? Thanks.

I'm not a homophobe, I just don't think that two men, or two women for that matter, should be allowed to raise a child. Fact is, they will get bullied for it and anyone who says they won't is naive. Just because they could get bullied for other things, it doesn't mean that its OK. Don't get me wrong, I'm not condoning a child getting bullied because they have homosexual parents, but I do disagree with the basic premise that homosexual couples should be entitled to raise a child.

Kids get bullied for being ginger, therefore all ginger parents should not be allowed to procreate! Kids get bullied for being fat, therefore all chubbers should not be allowed to procreate! Kids get bullied for being retarded, therefore homophobes like you should not be allowed to procreate!

Look, you're entitled to your opinions but you are a homophobe. Your second statement fit the definition of what the word "homophobe" means. Presuming that you are in favour of white heterosexual adoption:
If you are against mixed race adoption, you are discriminating based on race, and therefore a racist.
If you are against homosexual adoption, you are you are discriminating based on sexuality, and therefore a homophobe.

You can't change the definition of a word simply to try and make yourself feel better about your unpleasant bigoted opinions.


Honestly answer me: would you rather be raised by two loving and caring parents who happen to be both of the same sex, or would you rather grow up sleeping in an orphanage dormitory with no parents at all?

A kid from an orphanage would jump at the chance to be adopted by a homosexual couple, and would have a far happier life as a result. Who the **** are you to deny these kids the chance of a better life just because it doesn't fit into your disgusting backward and bigoted view of the world?

I'm not saying they shouldn't have children Because they will get bullied, I don't think they should for numerous other reasons, this being one of the least significant. Also, people seem to think the only alternative to a children having homosexual parents is being in a care home/orphanage, which is just clearly not true. You can call me homophobic all you want, I'm not, I'm just not scared to give my opinion as far as this is concerned.
