Gay people can make lousy parents
Advertisements [?]
when they're forced to marry straight people because that's the only way their family and society will accept them. People who have to lie about themselves on a daily basis, people who feel they have to hide, people who are filled with shame, guilt, and anger don't make great parents.

Their miserable straight spouses make lousy parents, too.

It's too bad all the advocates of "traditional marriage" don't realize this. Gay people have always married and they've always had children. It's only a question of whether they live in unhappy, fake marriages with straight people or real marriages with each other.

As someone raised in a Brokeback Mountain family, I vote for the latter.
