Many people say that gay parenting affects children negatively as well as being an unnatural parenting model and family model, therefore it will come to hurt the world. These opposing arguers strongly believe that children will become gay as an effect of having gay parents, or that the children will not be able to emotionally or mentally develop correctly, again as a result of having gay parents. However, what the people who do not agree with the idea are shutting out of their thoughts are the positive effects that have been proven through many observations and studies that have been performed on homoseuxal individuals, couples, and families. For example, there are children who have grown up with gay parents and it has been seen that they are…

Most gay men have held back from expressing themselves fully for many reasons. Men may not have been given the opportunity or chastised for being weak or effeminate. On the other hand, gay men are socially influenced not to express their true desires or emotions openly in public because it is seen as a sign of perversion by some. While people with HIV/AIDS are scared to openly express themselves for fear of being ostracized. No matter the cause, this group while in the transition stage, needs…

This part of the paper we talk about the history and the overall view society and we will look at whether or not the family wants to be open or closed about the adoption and whether they stay in contact with the family of the child.

Parents and administrators therefore fear…

I was in a particular punishment when I was younger that was unjust in my eyes. I made a statement around a friend who took offense to what I said. Therefore, after I said it he went a told the superintendent what I had said. What I had said was, "That's gay".
