I think homosexuality is just a sexual disease like pedophilia but just harmless.
I believe that males and females are not just for reproducing.Something i call "love", and if people don't feel love they can't give love, and children need love.

no. many people only thought for the gay marriage. but they have to see from the child side. believe it or not, people always judge from what they see. now there are a lot people who against them, moreover other people will said "don't go out with them. they're bad people" child from the gay marriage will get a problem to get a friend because of their parents.

I think if you have a poll like this be prepared for people to disagree with you.

Polls are like opinions. People are entitled to their own.

If people don't respect that, these kinds of polls shouldn't be made.

On another note; I say YES, they should.
In my experience, children who grow up with gay parents seem more accepting.

And anyone who says otherwise is a butthead!

I think they should be able to, as long as they go through the same screening processes to adopt as any other parents. If they can provide a good home and a caring environment, that's better than what a lot of parents are doing nowadays anyway.

i must admit that i am against homosexuals having children.
it's not however because i think that they shouldn't marry or anything, i support all that, it is just that children are cruel and having two moms or dads would probably end up in them being bulliedg and becoming socially rejected by other children.
Specially primary school is really bad about things like that, it happened to one of my classmates when i was little.

also i think that children should have certain rolemodels in their life and having two moms or dads thakes half of this parental rolemodel away - unless there is a certain person of the other gender around most of the time, like a best friend or uncle or something.

overall i'm not really against the whole having a child thing, it's just that i think that children that grow up with parents of the same gender have a greater risk of being socially isolated during their first years of school which are, at least that's what i think, the most important years in terms of developement of social skills etc.

My sister, and her partner have just had a baby through IVF.

The baby, now 4 months old, will not know his dad till hes 18.

They love him very much, and as long as parents love there child, what does it matter if they are same sex?

If a single mom or dad can raise a child, why can't 2 men or 2 women raise them? I've seen both heterosexual and homosexual parents be both great and horrible. It should be based on the person, not on their sexual orientation.

I've had a taste of both worlds.
My mom married my dad, despite knowing she was a lesbian.
They had me.
They got divorced.
Eventually I went to my mom's full time and stopped seeing my dad.
My dad was an asshole and did horrible things to my family and me.
He said terrible things about my mom and her family and even about me.

So I'm from a pretty broken home.
When I moved in completely with my mom, my life became far more stable.
I was never "confused".
I've always known who I am and what I am.
My mom's lifestyle didn't do anything but make me a more open-minded person.

I don't think it's right to deny anyone from having a child, unless there is sufficient evidence (i.e. drugs, abuse, neglect, etc.) proving that the parent(s) are unfit.
My dad should have never been allowed to have kids.

What I always laugh at is when people say "But gays only want to adopt or have kids so they can recruit them!!!"
I die laughing every time.
Their fear is completely unfounded.
I haven't been "recruited" and I know plenty of other people who were raised by gays who weren't "recruited".
How silly.
