<< Angela,
This topic involves everyone and same-sex couples CAN decide to have
children (through pro-creation, adoption, foster care). What do you call
it if the male partner in a heterosexual relationship cannot fertilize a
woman if they still decide to have children? They can adopt, go to a sperm
bank, have a friend or family member fertilize her?just as a same-sex
couple has these options. You still sound bigoted to me, Angela. I am
sure you will write back saying you love all or whatever, but to me, you
sound like same-sex couples don't or shouldn't have children in any other
way but adopting? I think they should have (and do) more options than that
(not that adopting is a bad option, but for the same reasons hetero's
should have a choice, so should gay/bi/lesbian couples).

Hi! Candi, Please refrain from calling me a bigot! I am open-minded and I
believe in the autonomy of a person's soul - whatever you or anyone else does
in life is between you/them and God - that is really what I believe _ I never
said that homosexual couples should not have babies - I asked why would they?
What kind of life would they provide for the children? My question was
answered inadvertently - I was not being sarcastic - I was asking in honestly.
I do not know any gay couples - I was really just wondering - thanks to anyone
who answered my question.
Also, again taken out of context - the conversation was about overpopulation
being a hetersexual topic only - I was wondering then if non-hetersexual
copies pro-created rather then adopted - or were most non-hetersexual couples
against pro-creation and pro-adoption because of the Eco-crisis. Each person
is different as is each situation - we should not judge each other because of
choices we make - we should, however, in my personal opinion, try to influence
each other to make good, healthy choices for each other and the Earth.
Peace!
Angela
