    Exclamation civil partnerships

    Do you think that two men or two women be allowed to marry and what about the two men being able to adopt?

    Children aren't a right. They're not property and can't be pawns in the equal rights game.

    That said, I have no problem with two men or women adopting. But that position is based on the welfare of the kids, not gay rights.

    Nah. That was written by some religious nut.

    The biggest argument I've heard for a gay couple not be able to adopt is "but then their child will be gay!" and for marriage is the "Adam and Eve, not Adam and STEVE" that sean333 mentioned above.

    What a load of rubbish.

    The only reason anyone should be against it is if you are being forced to marry and 'become' gay. Otherwise you are just being daft.

    Would that be a normal environment for children to be brought up by two fathers. The stress they could be under going to school?and would they see it as the norm growing up in that environment seeing it from an early age? Two men living togethers one thing but being allowed to adopt?sorry don't think so

    My dad is gay. I was lucky enough to have a mum and two dads growing up, and there's nothing wrong with me (that chocolate can't cure). I did get bullied at school because of it, but people will always find a reason to bully or abuse at that age. What is better - leaving a child to believe they are unloved and unwanted or putting them in an environment where they are loved and wanted?

    Once the well being of the child is being met then I see no issue with any couple raising a child.
    Of course there are bound to be areas where a male/female contribution would be desirable but even as a gay / lesbian couple their would be female/ male influences through relations / friends.
    Only issue I have is and maybe it's a wrong perception but I feel a lot of lesbians tend to be man hatters which isn't a good environment especially if it's a baby girl.
