re: Study: Same-Sex Parenting Harms Children

What are you talking about bro? To be a natural parent it is required to have had sex with someone off the opposite sex. There is no other way.

OK? And homosexuals can engage on heterosexual sex if they wanted a child and that was the only way to create one. But since it's no longer necessary, given medical advancements, and many heterosexual couples use these other methods as well (whether by choice or necessity), your point doesn't make much sense.

Sure. But the rates have given dramatically, and to about about 1.5% of total births in the US in a given year as of 2014.

Actually after rereading I think maybe you inferred that I mean "natural parent" to mean that gays couldn't naturally have the instincts to be a parent?

I should have read this first.

That's exactly what I thought. But like I said, unless biologically/physically incapable, any person could have a child via the natural method.
