What's wrong with gays adopting?
I am gay, and I've come to chime in. I truly don't understand any sort of bigotry geared toward the gay community. Not natural? First of all, whether through nature or nurture, homosexuality or even bisexuality is uncontrollable. Trust me. When I realized that I was gay at around 14 years old, it was the scariest experience of my life. At the time, I thought my life was ruined, and I wanted so bad to be straight. I tried watching straight porn and dating girls and everything, but it didn't change anything. I am gay, and there is nothing I can do about it. Whether I was born this way or not shouldn't even matter. If I could choose to be straight right now, I would do it in a heartbeat. And this is exactly why I can't stand any sort of intolerance towards the gay community period. Even for the good number of people who say shit along the lines of "I'm okay with gay marriage even if I disagree with the lifestyle." That's still intolerance, and it's still bigoted.
Obviously I have a biased towards this subject as I am gay and have gay friends who are great people, but I can't even begin to justify the other side of the argument.
