What would you do if your children are homosexual

You said you'd be worried you wouldn't bond as well, because of their orientation. What else am I supposed to infer? Being gay doesn't automatically, make you a butch girl or feminine guy. They could still share interests and be a likeable person, which tends to help people bond more than sexual orientation.

You'd be surprised - i thought the same until i got the urge to start dancing and loving fashion more than history or food.

Not really, my kids won't be in the kind of environment that tends to play a huge part in determining this unusual orientation.

How odd. I'd have thought you'd find that you Don't Feel Like Dancin'...



Sheldor's absolutely right though - sexuality shouldn't have a strong impact on how you relate to your child.

well, at least if my daughter was a lesbian, I wouldn't have to worry about the billions of penises that could impregnate her...

The problem is, no 'gay' child is ever born. No-one is born gay. It would be based on nurture. Your child would be biologically designed for the opposite gender and sex, but has acquired the tendency to go for the same sex. Why do parents try to find cures when a child loses a leg or arm, but the very reason we humans adapted, the very reasons we have arms legs and organs are to mate with the opposite gender, procreate, and further ensure the survival of our genes, and a condition which makes that impossible is seen as 'positive'.

Having a gay daughter I could handle, but a gay son no!!!!!! That hole is meant as an exit not an entrance!!!!!!! At least my daughter's frolics would only involve a rubber toy or two. Yuk at the thought of a hairy butt crack being a place of euphoria. I'm gonna be sick!!!!!!!!

Stupid thing to say.



I hope they ignore both your belief that it's sinful and that you would want them to suppress it.




Just change your beliefs, because you can't pray it away.

I never mentioned sex or 'sexual mechanics', only relationships. Regardless, I guess I'm hoping for a 'traditional' family and the normal social and personal experiences that entails.

What gave you the impression I expect a 'carbon copy? I think people need to try reading what I wrote, not reading what they want to see in order to make an irrelevant argument.

To humour you - I expect most children will have somewhat similar interests to their parents, partly because of genes, e.g. sporting ability, musical talent, etc.

i wouldn't love them any less, but if I had the choice, I would pick straight children because well, grandchildren might be nice in the future.

You can still get grandchildren with gay children.

I was obviously referring to post #28 where you stated: "I like the idea of parenting a child that I know I can fully relate to and that we'd have very similar interests."

Your chances of having a child to whom you can fully relate and with whom you share very (note- 'very' is not synonymous with 'somewhat') similar interests are slim.

Exactly, it's been mentioned countless times in this thead but people like to ignore what they don't want to read
